What to Watch For

• 1 When can decodable texts help older readers? Use them for targeted phonics or morphology practice, to support content-area reading, or to build fluency and confidence reading aloud.
• 2 What types of decodable texts are available? Storyshares decodables offer high-interest fiction and aligned article pairings, while informational decodables connect phonics and morphology practice to science and social studies topics.
• 3 How do the accompanying lessons support instruction? Follow the skill progression and use warm-ups, explicit instruction, during-reading tasks, and exit tickets to guide small groups and plan next steps.
