Parable of Two Builders Jesus Bible Story Decodable Reader Mini Book Christian

By Kaylor Creations

*Current FREE sample of my Bible story decodable readers** This steal wont last forever!

Here are my others: Check them out!

  • Young Jesus at the Temple
  • Jesus is Baptized
  • Jesus is Tempted
  • Water into Wine

Build confidence in beginning readers with this engaging Bible story decodable reader! This resource is for the decodable reader mini book titled “Sand or Rock?”, based on the Bible story of one parable of Jesus: the parable of two builders. It includes a Bible decodable reader mini book in color and black and white, pre-reading warm-ups, a teaching companion, and a single page passages option.

Primary-grade Christian teachers and homeschool teachers alike will love the user-friendly format!

Beginning readers will enjoy being able to read the Bible story for themselves!

This is the PERFECT way to ✨integrate the Bible✨ into your reading curriculum! Ideas for use include:

  • Centers
  • Small group instruction
  • Guided Reading
  • Review
  • Independent skills practice
  • Homework
  • Intervention
  • Sub Plans

What makes this decodable reader so unique from all the other Bible mini books?

It is written specifically with very early readers in mind with words that can be sounded out/ decoded with basic phonic patterns such as: CVC, CVCe, Digraphs, Blends, Vowel Teams, R Controlled, and Diphthongs.

**✨**INCLUDED in the digital download:

( *Click “View Preview” under listing images to see a sneak peak*)

  • Teacher Reference Pages:

    • Detailed explanations, descriptions, ideas for use and helpful visuals for all the resources included.
  • Teaching Companion Page:

    • Scripture Reference
    • Bible Discussion
    • Comprehension Check
  • Pre-Reading Warm Up’s: These warm ups prepare the student with the words they will encounter in the mini book. These will help the student make connections and build prior knowledge. You will find a list and chart of the following words in the reader:

    • Sight Words
    • Phonics
    • Bible Vocabulary
  • A decodable reader mini-book

    • Full-color version
    • Black-and-white version for coloring.
  • A single-page passage with a picture(s).

    • Full-color version
    • Black and white version for coloring
    • Blank space version for illustrating

Many reading programs such as the Science of Reading, Logic of English and All About Reading have found that for reading comprehension to improve, a student’s ability to decode must increase. A powerful tool to improve student decoding skills is through the use of decodable texts.

With a Bible decodable text, you will also be increasing the student’s knowledge of the Bible and help grow their faith in Jesus!

Thank you and HAPPY TEACHING!!

----------------------------------------------------------

Make sure to note:

This is for ONE Bible Story Decodable reader resource. Others are /will be listed separately in my store.

For most decodable readers the writer can ‘make up’ a story by choosing from only these types of words. However, to accurately tell the Bible story, I had to use a few sight words and Bible vocabulary.

These are not meant to be in-depth Bible lessons. These are meant to support your reading program, integrating the Bible into early learning!

Henry and Mudge The First Book QR Codes & Poke Cards

By Rachel Thiry

WOW! Two different options for the same book! How fun – QR Codes and Poke Cards. Both are favorite activities for the students in my classroom. Henry and Mudge The First Book poke cards are a great independent, partner or guided reading group comprehension activity. Henry and Mudge books are a just right beginning chapter book for second grade students. Students in small groups quickly make connections to Henry and his big, loveable dog, Mudge. The poke cards are self checking. After reading each chapter, students will answer each question by selecting one of three choices. Using a pencil, straw, or pipe cleaner, students will poke through the hole to choose their answer. The correct answer will have a mark above or around the hole. The poking process quickly engages the students and provides immediate feedback to them. As with the poke cards, the QR code cards are self checking. My students love using our classroom iPods or iPads to check their answers. Cards have chapter titles on them for ease of organization. Cards are labeled poke cards or QR code cards. Answer key is included and clearly labeled. Teacher Preparation: -For QR and poke cards - Print on light colored card stock for durability. -For poke cards - Using a hole punch, at each * punch a hole. -On the back of the poke card identify the correct answer by drawing a circle around the hole or marking an X above the hole. -Laminate for durability. For poke cards laminate after marking the answer on the back. Visit again for more great Henry and Mudge poke cards and QR codes! We hope to see you soon!
