Read Not Guess Daily Decodables

These lessons are meant for kids who just need a little more practice. Each lesson uses a standard format to work through one sound per day. There are simple instructions for parents and caregivers, and any words in big bold letters are meant for the child to read out loud.
The lessons were originally written as part of the Daily(ish) Decodable sequence. As such, they sometimes build on each other and repeat sounds that we were working on in previous lessons. But as you work through them on your own, you may need to help your child sound out words.
You can also go back to our full scope and sequence to fill in any gaps.
This is not the full list of Daily Decodables, but you can find even more lessons in the Read Not Guess app on the App Store and Google Play.
