It is a fox pup. This fox pup is in its den. This fox pup can nap in its den, but it can get up in a wink. This fox pup is up. This baby is on the sand. It is a pup. Mom and her pup can swim. Then, they can rest in the sand. This pup can get as big as her mom. 7B © Houghton Mifflin Harcourt Publishing Company 6 3 Unit 2/Week 1/Selection 2 This is a baby bear. It is a bear cub. This cub is at a big pond. This cub can get a fish. It is work to get fish, but this cub must eat. This baby is in its nest. It is with its mom. Mom and her baby like this nest. Mom can flap her wings, but her baby can not flap yet. Not yet. 8B © Houghton Mifflin Harcourt Publishing Company 54 Unit 2/Week 1/Selection 2 This is a baby skunk. It is a skunk kit. This skunk kit is on this big log. This skunk kit can jump up on this log. This baby is a kid. This kid is with its mom. Mom and her kid are next to this lake.

With a click, click, click, Jill got five pretty pictures. “It is game time,” said Mack. Jill and the ducks dive in and swim. “Is it still game time?” said Mack. “Yes. It is still game time,” said Jill. Jill and the ducks went back. Jill and Mack by Sara Nicholas illustrated by Rick Powell 10B © Houghton Mifflin Harcourt Publishing Company 2 7 Unit 2/Week 2/Selection 1 Mack swung his leg to kick. The grass was wet and slick. Mack fell on his back. “Do not fuss,” said Mack as he got up. “I am just fine.” Jill led the ducks to Mack. “Do not fuss,” said Mack. “I am a duck. I had a nice quick dip.” 11B © Houghton Mifflin Harcourt Publishing Company 6 3 Unit 2/Week 2/Selection 1 Jill saw the clock. Tick, tock. Where is Mack? Tick, tock. What if Mack fell? Tick, tock. What if Mack is stuck? Riff will kick next. Riff swung his leg to kick. Riff is quick, but Riff did not kick the ball. Riff sat and Jill came to kick. Can Jill kick it? 12B © Houghton Mifflin Harcourt Publishing Company 54 Unit 2/Week 2/Selection 1 Jill had strong legs. Jill swung her leg to kick. With a swift kick, the ball went up, up, up in the air. Jill ran and ran. Mack went to block the fast ball, but it went up, up, up and past Mack. Mack ran and ran. Can Mack get it? 13B © Houghton Mifflin Harcourt Publishing Company 18 Unit 2/Week 2/Selection 2 Rabbit’s Muffins by Cynthia Rothman illustrated by Tim Egan In tennis class, Rabbit swung at the tennis ball and hit it up, up, up. Rabbit had made her best and last hit. Rabbit was late and went home. Still today, Puffin and his puffin pals get in line for muffins as muffin smells fill the air. Muffins made by Rabbit are still a big, big hit. 14B © Houghton Mifflin Harcourt Publishing Company 2 7 Unit 2/Week 2/Selection 2 Rabbit has a job. Rabbit must make muffins. Rabbit will blend milk, eggs, and muffin mix. Rabbit will fill pans and pop the pans in to bake. Rabbit made stacks of muffins. Puffin and his puffin pals like the muffins that Rabbit made. Those muffins are such a big hit. Rabbit will bake muffins for puffins, and cows and pigs, as fast as she can. Rabbit will bake a lot. 15B © Houghton Mifflin Harcourt Publishing Company 6 3 Unit 2/Week 2/Selection 2 “Sorry,” said Rabbit. “Next time, you will get muffins.” “Thanks,” said Puffin, and rode his bike back home. Rabbit got pretty pictures. Rabbit made muffins with the same shapes. Rabbit will ride and bring muffins to Cow and Pig. Rabbit did not stop at the home of Puffin. Rabbit just rode past his home. Rabbit had no muffin for him. 16B © Houghton Mifflin Harcourt Publishing Company 54 Unit 2/Week 2/Selection 2 Puffin got on his bike. He rode his bike to see Rabbit. “You gave Cow and Pig muffins. Why did Cow and Pig get muffins, but I did not?” said Puffin. “I did not think puffins like muffins,” said Rabbit. “Puffins dive and swim for puffin food.” “Yes,” said Puffin, “puffins do, but puffins can like muffins, too.” Splish! Splash! Splish! Whales live in water like fish. Whales swim like fish, but whales are not fish. Fish take in air while they swim. Whales can not. Whales must swim up to get air. by Sara Spring Splish! Splash! Whales People think dolphins are wise. Dolphins can hear well and see well. Trish is on this ship. Trish has her eyes on those dolphins. She will watch them and take pictures. Smile, dolphins! Smile at Trish! 17B © Houghton Mifflin Harcourt Publishing Company 18 Unit 2/Week 3/Selection 1 Splish! Splash! Splish! Dolphins catch waves and ride them. Dolphins spring up and dive. Dolphins are strong and can jump high. Splish! Splash! Splish! Blue whales are huge. In fact, no other animal on land or in water can be as big as these whales. These whales have strong fins. Fins help whales swim fast. 18B © Houghton Mifflin Harcourt Publishing Company 2 7 Unit 2/Week 3/Selection 1 Splish! Splash! Splish! Dolphins play games with other dolphins. Dolphins chase each other. Dolphins jump and dive and play. Splish! Splash! Splish! White whales are not as big as most whales. The skin on this whale is as white as milk. White whales swim in water that is very cold. White whales dive and hunt. 19B © Houghton Mifflin Harcourt Publishing Company 6 3 Unit 2/Week 3/Selection 1 Splish! Splash! Splish! Dolphins are whales, not fish. This dolphin must swim up to get air. That hole on its head lets air in and lets it out. Dolphins have strong fins. Fins help dolphins swim. Splish! Splash! Splish! Dolphins swim with each other in pods. Dolphin pods can be a few dolphins or many dolphins. Dolphins make clicks and squeaks that help them set a safe path in the water. 20B © Houghton Mifflin Harcourt Publishing Company 54 Unit 2/Week 3/Selection 1 Scamp makes a kite with white paper and sticks. Scamp adds a long, long red string. Scamp likes his white kite with its red string. “Quite a nice kite!” thinks Scamp. Drifting Up, Up, Up by Emily Banks illustrated by Teri Sloat Scamp ran fast, huffing and puffing, with his kite. The wind lifted his white kite and it drifted up, up, up. “People will think I am good at this,” Scamp thought, “and, I am!” 21B © Houghton Mifflin Harcourt Publishing Company 18 Unit 2/Week 3/Selection 2 Scamp rushed to look out. It was wet, wet, wet. Scamp wished he could fly his kite, but he could not. Scamp kept his eyes on his kite as he munched on nut crunch. Frog swam to get the string, splashing as he went. Frog handed it to Scamp. “Grasp the string and hold on,” hinted Frog. “Grasp it.” “Thanks,” said Scamp, clutching his kite string. “Nice hint.” 22B © Houghton Mifflin Harcourt Publishing Company 2 7 Unit 2/Week 3/Selection 2 Scamp ran fast, huffing and puffing, with his kite until the wind lifted it up. As it drifted, a strong gust of wind came. His kite swished. Scamp lost his grip on the kite string. The kite string landed in a pond. Frog was jumping there. Scamp got up. He saw that it was not wet, and that leaves swished. Scamp dashed out and felt the wind on his back. “It is time to fly this kite,” yelled Scamp. “It’s time! It’s time!” 23B © Houghton Mifflin Harcourt Publishing Company 6 3 Unit 2/Week 3/Selection 2 Scamp ran fast, huffing and puffing, with his kite until the wind lifted it up. His kite was drifting, when a strong wind gust came. His kite swished and landed on a branch. With a few tugs, Bird got his kite and gave it to Scamp. “Fly this kite at a field,” hinted Bird. “That is the best place.” “Thanks,” yelled Scamp as he went on. 24B © Houghton Mifflin Harcourt Publishing Company 54 Unit 2/Week 3/Selection 2 “Is it time yet?” asked Mel. “Can we go soon? Can we?” Mel kept asking until his mom asked him to please stop asking. by Vincent Paulsen illustrated by Meryl Treatner Mel kept thinking as the jet landed. Maybe, if a nice white whale swam next to Mel, it would take him on a fast white whale ride. Maybe! Maybe not. What do you think Mel will do? 25B © Houghton Mifflin Harcourt Publishing Company 18 Unit 2/Week 4/Selection 1 “I am afraid we must just sit a while, Mel. Dad is still at his job. He must finish his work. Until Dad is finished, we can not go,” said Mom. “Well, can we make up a game?” asked Mel. “Let’s make up a letter game.” Then maybe he would swim up with them. He would rest on his raft. Mel would rest and rock on big waves. He would rise up with each wave and then slide back down with the puffins. 26B © Houghton Mifflin Harcourt Publishing Company 2 7 Unit 2/Week 4/Selection 1 Mel kept thinking while he was flying in the jet. Would he visit with puffins? Maybe he would dive with them and look at red and yellow fish. He would swim deep, like a puffin. Mom and Mel made up “Spell It.” Mel is a spelling champ. He likes spelling games. Mom is pretty good at spelling, too. Today in this game, Mel even spelled “wood” and “would.” Then, at last, Dad came. “We can go!” yelled Mel. 27B © Houghton Mifflin Harcourt Publishing Company 6 3 Unit 2/Week 4/Selection 1 Mel picked up his bag. Dad picked up the rest. Mom got the fins and stuff. Mom went out last and locked up. Mel began thinking and thinking about this trip. What will it be like? Mel kept thinking as he got on the jet. Would he swim with dolphins? Would dolphins let him swim with their pod? Would a nice big dolphin jump with Mel riding on his back? Maybe. Maybe not. 28B © Houghton Mifflin Harcourt Publishing Company 54 Unit 2/Week 4/Selection 1 The sun was rising as Snake, Duck, Bear, and Frog were waking up. Clang! Clang! Clang! Clang! Clang! Clang! Who kept on ringing that bell? Racing Away! by Cynthia Rothman illustrated by Tim Bowers “This is the best race,” yelled Frog. “Yes,” said Bear. “Next time we can have a baking race. No one is good at baking things.” “That would be fun!” added Fox. “We can bake and snack.” 29B © Houghton Mifflin Harcourt Publishing Company 18 Unit 2/Week 4/Selection 2 It was Fox. He waved his hands and asked Snake, Duck, Bear, and Frog to sit. Fox had a big note. It said, “Come and be in this great race.” “Which race will it be?” asked Snake. “We must have a race that most of us want,” said Fox. “We must vote, then,” said Bear. Frog got up and skated. Frog spun and spun on the ice. Duck was afraid, but soon he skated and went fast. Fox, Snake, Bear, Duck, and Frog just skated and smiled. Skating was fun. 30B © Houghton Mifflin Harcourt Publishing Company 2 7 Unit 2/Week 4/Selection 2 Fox went on the ice first, but landed on his back. Then Fox got up and skated. Bear slid and fell and slid and fell. Then Bear skated with grace. Snake traced an “S” with his skate. Snake is hoping it will be a sliding race. Snake is good at sliding. Duck is hoping it will be a gliding race. Duck is good at gliding. Bear is hoping it will be a hiking race. Bear is good at hiking. Frog is hoping it will be a jumping race. Frog is good at jumping. 31B © Houghton Mifflin Harcourt Publishing Company 6 3 Unit 2/Week 4/Selection 2 Fox named a race and Snake, Duck, Bear, and Frog voted. Snake voted for sliding. Duck voted for a gliding race. Bear voted for hiking. Frog voted for jumping. Every race got one vote. Voting did not help them much. “Can we have an ice skating race?” asked Fox. “No one is good at that.” “Yes. We all would have an even chance in that race,” added Snake. 32B © Houghton Mifflin Harcourt Publishing Company 54 Unit 2/Week 4/Selection 2 Will Whale woke up in his huge home. Sunshine danced on his face as he rolled out of bed. He swam to his table and had his kelp and eggs. Let’s Have Fun by Kate Pistone illustrated by Diana Schoenbrun Then, Steve and Cam came to splish and splash, too. Will and Frank and Steve and Cam swam a while, and then Cam gave them cake. “That’s what I call a whale of a time!” said Will. 33B © Houghton Mifflin Harcourt Publishing Company 18 Unit 2/Week 5/Selection 1 “Fine!” said Frank. “I’ll go with you! That will be fun!” So Will and Frank went here and there. They smiled and joked all day long. “I think I want to swim and splash. I’ll find Steve Squid and we’ll have fun,” said Will. Will went to visit Steve Squid. Will gave Steve a tug and smiled. 34B © Houghton Mifflin Harcourt Publishing Company 2 7 Unit 2/Week 5/Selection 1 Then, Will went to the cove because he wanted to visit Frank Fish. Will gave his fin a pat and smiled. “Let’s splish and splash,” said Will to Frank. “Let’s go for a swim,” said Will. “I’m afraid I can’t,” said Steve. “See my trumpet? I can’t jump and swim and splash today. Ask me next time.” 35B © Houghton Mifflin Harcourt Publishing Company 6 3 Unit 2/Week 5/Selection 1 Next, Will went to visit Cam Clam in the sand. Will gave her shell a tap and smiled. Can Cam swim and splash? “Let’s ride those waves,” said Will. “I would really like to,” said Cam, “but I’m baking a cake. Ask me next time.” 36B © Houghton Mifflin Harcourt Publishing Company 54 Unit 2/Week 5/Selection 1 37B © Houghton Mifflin Harcourt Publishing Company 18 Unit 2/Week 5/Selection 2 It is race day at the pond! Animals came from all around to see the big contest. “I will run and win! I will run, run, run so fast!” Croc said. I’m Going to Win by Kiyoshi Fukuhara illustrated by Bob Monahan Croc broke the finish line! Next came Stripes, and then came Deb. Croc held up his prize. “Thanks, Deb and Stripes! You helped me win, because you helped me be fast,” Croc said. 38B © Houghton Mifflin Harcourt Publishing Company 2 7 Unit 2/Week 5/Selection 2 “Deb is fast and so is Stripes. I can’t give up! I’ve got to ride really fast,” said Croc. He rode like the wind past Deb and Stripes. First, they had to run on sand. Stripes, Croc, and Deb lined up. Frog yelled “Dash!” and dash they did. It’s hot on that sand, but they do not mind that hot sand. 39B © Houghton Mifflin Harcourt Publishing Company 6 3 Unit 2/Week 5/Selection 2 Then, they had to bike on the path. Stripes, Croc and Deb pumped away. It’s a long path, but they do not mind that long bike path. Croc, Stripes, and Deb ran on. Deb ran past Croc. “Deb is fast! She’s fast! Really fast! I’m drifting behind! I’ve got to glide, glide, glide to the finish line,” said Croc. 40B © Houghton Mifflin Harcourt Publishing Company 54 Unit 2/Week 5/Selection 2 Next, they had to swim in the pond. Stripes, Croc, and Deb jumped in. It’s really cold in that pond, but they do not mind that cold pond. Croc, Stripes, and Deb swam on. Stripes swam past Croc. “He’s fast! I’m drifting behind! I’ve got to splash to the finish line,” Croc said. Decodable Readers Take-Home Blackline Masters Grade 2 1505361-LV2
