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:
A decodable reader mini-book
A single-page passage with a picture(s).
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!

Freebie-Ready Reads: A Daily Phonics/Phoneme Practice in Automaticity
By Come Alive Communications
Have you ever wished students in the prereading and early reading stage could have opportunities to be fluent and build automaticity? How can students who barely know letter names and sounds become fluent? Ready Reads are just what you are looking for.
Ready Reads are warm up activities for the eyes and the brain and can support any curriculum. Ready Read charts cumulatively follow the scope and sequence of UFLI and support the Science of Reading. Use these in small group, whole group on the projector, in partners for accountability, or for students to whisper read to themselves. They can easily be adapted in an I read, We read, You read or Your turn, My turn format. Ready Reads can be used for students to say the letter name and/or the letter sound practicing grapheme recognition as well as phoneme recall. For pre-readers and early readers alike, this activity builds the left to right progression of reading and builds fluency for letters and concepts already learned. This is the building block for automaticity and fluent reading.
This freebie gets you started up to lesson 3. Get the full resource for Kinder, 1st, and 2nd to build your students' automaticity here! Kinder here 1st-2nd *Coming Soon*

Some social and emotional skills needed to collaborate with each other on a readers theatre performance are:
To ensure the students are set up for success, before they are sent off into the wild for readers theatre there needs to be guidelines and clear expectations. An example of some Readers Theatre rules could be
Be Kind: Listen to each other and treat everyone with respect.
Join In: Everyone gets a chance to be part of the fun!
Teamwork Rocks: Work together to make our performance shine.
Get Ready: Practice your lines and cues before rehearsals.
Talk It Out: Share ideas and listen to each other's suggestions.
Try New Things: Be open to trying different ways of doing things.
Solve Problems Together: Work as a team to overcome any challenges.
Say Thanks: Celebrate each other's hard work and talent.
Look Back and Learn: Reflect on what we did well and how we can improve.
Have Fun!: Let's make reader's theatre a blast for everyone!
Readers Theatre Scripts
There are many out there to suit a whole range of different year levels and themes!
I’ve created these social and emotional learning readers theatre scripts for years 3-6, with each focusing on a different area.
The Kindness Crew
In this Readers Theatre script, your students will meet the unique characters of the Kindness Crew: Charlie, Grace and Emma, as they embark on a mission to teach Zog, an alien from Planet Meany, about the importance of kindness.
The Inner Voices
In this Readers Theatre script, your students will meet Emma and Liam, whose ‘inner champion’ and ‘inner critic’ accompany them for a day at school. Inner Champion offers positivity, encouragement and kindness… Whilst Inner Critic is negative, unhelpful and unkind.
The Emotion Busters
In this Readers Theatre script, your students will meet the unique characters of “The Emotion Busters”: Happy Harry, Sad Sally, Fearful Fred, Frustrated Fran and Angry Alex, as they drink a potion to suppress emotions they don’t like.
Resilient Riley
In this Readers Theatre script, your students will meet the unique characters of Resilient Riley and Non Resilient Riley. Resilient Riley steps up to date to day challenges, however Non Resilient Riley runs away and ends up feeling even worse.
