About this BookThis book has been created for use by students learning to read with the TNFoundational Skills Curriculum Supplement. Readability levels are suitable forearly readers. The book has also been carefully leveled in terms of its “codeload,” or the number of spellings used in the stories.The English writing system is complex. It uses more than 200 spellings to standfor 40-odd sounds. Many sounds can be spelled several different ways, and manyspellings can be pronounced several different ways. This book has been designedto make early reading experiences simpler and more productive by using a subsetof the available spellings. It uses only spellings that students have been taught tosound out as part of their phonics lessons, plus a handful of Tricky Words, whichhave also been deliberately introduced in the lessons. This means that the storieswill be 100% decodable if they are assigned at the proper time.As the students move through the program, they learn new spellings and the“code load” in the decodable Readers increases gradually. The code load graphicon this page indicates the number of spellings students are expected to knowin order to read the first story of the book and the number of spellings studentsare expected to know in order to read the final stories in the book. The columnson the inside back cover list the specific spellings and Tricky Words students areexpected to recognize at the beginning of this Reader. The bullets at the bottomof the inside back cover identify spellings, Tricky Words, and other topics that areintroduced gradually in the unit this Reader accompanies.90
