Grade 1 Additional Resources Instructional Routines Instructional Routine 5: Decodable Text Purpose: Use this routine to have children apply sound/spelling correspondences and high-frequency words to decodable text and to develop reading fluency. 1 • Review Sound/Spelling Card(s) and High-Frequency Words. 2 • Distribute books. Read the title and browse the beginning pages with children. What do you think this story is about? 3 • Review one of the blending routines on pp. 11–13. • Select a word from the text and model how to apply the blending strategy. EXAMPLE: I see the letters c, h, i, n. I know that the letters ch stand for the sound /ch/. I’ll blend the sounds for all the letters: /ch/ / Ĭ/ /n/, chin. Chin is a word that I know, so I’ll see if it makes sense in the sentence. 4 • Have children read the first page of the book aloud. When they need help, guide children to use the blending strategy to read a word. Have them reread the sentence. • Pronounce nondecodable words that are difficult for children. • Repeat the procedure for each page. Read the first page out loud. Remember to use the Sound/Spelling Cards and the blending strategy when you need to figure out a word. 5 • For unfamiliar words of more than one syllable, remind children to look for familiar word parts or break the word into syllables to decode it. Look for word parts you know. Divide the word into syllables. Think of the sounds for the letters and blend each syllable. Blend the word parts to read the word. Check that the word makes sense. 6 • Reread the story, following the same procedure as necessary. 7 • Use the Choral Reading Routine or another Fluency Routine to have children reread the story together three or more times. © Houghton M i f f l i n H a r c o u r t P u b l i s h i n g C o m p a n y .
