About this listen
Feeling torn between leveled readers and decodables? There are strong opinions out there, but in this episode, I share the difference between the two and what I use in my classroom (and why). I also share my favorite decodable resources and how I use them during small groups and independent reading time.
In this episode I share:- The difference between decodable vs. leveled books
- Why I stopped using leveled texts in small groups
- How decodables build student confidence and support phonics instruction
- When it’s okay to mix in leveled texts
- How to match decodable texts to students' phonics skills
- Tips for organizing your classroom library and book bags
- Why it’s okay if you’ve done things differently in the past (you’re learning!)
