Seller's description

Specifications

May include: A set of CVC short vowel decodable passages for grades K-1, featuring three printed pages. The pages include stories titled Max the Cat and Tim and Kim Sit, along with a Shew What You Know comprehension worksheet with questions.

20 original short-vowel stories that are truly decodable: only CVC/VC words with the target vowel, plus a short list of 19 heart words. No sneaky plurals, blends, digraphs or -s endings.

SEQUENCE (four passages per vowel: three word families and one mixed review)
- Short a: -at, -an, -ap, -ad/-ag
- Short i: -it, -ig, -in, -ip/-ix
- Short o: -ot, -op, -og, mixed
- Short u: -ug, -un, -ut/-ub, mixed
- Short e: -et, -en, -ed/-eg, mixed

EACH PASSAGE INCLUDES
- The story (38 to 55 words) in a large beginning-reader font, with heart words and sound focus at the top and running word counts for quick fluency checks
- A "Draw it!" box
- A practice page: 2 comprehension questions, a "which word is in the story?" item (cat / cot / cut), a word hunt, and a 3-read fluency tracker

ALSO INCLUDED
Teacher guide with a 10 to 15 minute routine, a scope and sequence page, and answer keys. One 48-page black-and-white friendly PDF, US Letter (prints on A4 with "fit to page").

GRADES: Kindergarten and 1st grade (also great for intervention)

STANDARDS (CCSS): RF.K.3a-c, RF.1.3b, RF.1.3g, RF.K.4, RF.1.4a-b, RL.K.1, RL.1.1

HOW TO USE
Preview the heart words and sound focus, read the story together, then have students reread it for fluency and finish the practice page. Works for small groups, literacy centers, homework and progress checks. A computer program read every word of every passage from the finished PDF: 988 words, 0 exceptions.

INSTANT DOWNLOAD
This is a digital PDF. Nothing will be shipped. Download it right after purchase from your Etsy account.

LICENSE
One purchase is licensed for one teacher in one classroom (including your own students at home and a password-protected platform such as Google Classroom). Homeschool families may use it for their own children. Please buy one copy per additional teacher. Do not share, resell, or post the file publicly.

HOW THIS WAS MADE
I wrote and designed the passages and layout. AI tools helped draft content and write the software that generated and checked the pages. Every word was verified by computer and every page was reviewed by me before publishing. The file is branded Front Porch Puzzle Press.
