The Daily(ish) Decodable program uses a standard format to work through one sound per day. There are simple instructions for you, the parent or caregiver, and any words in big bold letters are meant for your child to read out loud.
Today we're going to work on the “ee” sound in words like “bee” or “coffee.”
You can review all of the prior lessons here.
Rhyme It
Parents, read the following words out loud. Then ask your child which one does NOT rhyme with the others?

Read It
Have your child read the passage below out loud:
Coffee Day!
Today is Coffee Day!
And I LOVE coffee!
I started drinking coffee to stay awake, but over time I came to really enjoy it.
I take my coffee black, but my wife puts oat milk in hers.
My brother likes his coffee weak, but I prefer mine strong.
My son likes to try my coffee, but he is not allowed a cup of his own.
I normally drink two cups of coffee per day, one in the morning and one in the afternoon.
What about you? Do you like the smell of coffee? Have you ever had coffee? Did you like it?
-------------------------------
Explain It
Now have your child answer a couple questions about the story:
What is today's story about?
How often does the author drink coffee?
