Book excerpt: Orton Gillingham Decodable Readers: let's practice long and short vowels. Workbook with decodable texts to help struggling readers to read. Black & White Edition. Volume 2. The "decodable readers" are books that are contrived to support kids practice a particular letter-sound pattern shown as part of a synthetic phonics curriculum. Books like this have no storyline; they are equally nonsensical whether you begin on the first page, or start on the last page and read backward. A book must be worth reading and provide kids the chance to discover the full spectrum of strategies needed to understand any book. In this book, we have included texts for the student to read and identify certain words within it. You will find that after each text the child is asked questions so that he not only focuses on reading but also on understanding and retaining certain data that the text teaches us. The book is reinforced with other activities that break the monotony and make it fun and challenging for the child, such as identifying the name of the given picture making sentences with the given word finding certain words in a word search and crossword puzzles.
