When it comes to traditional decodable books, what you find on the market is often limited in scope, lacking in depth, and with minimal cultural diversity. We wanted to change that.
As an educator or curriculum director, you don’t have time for texts that don’t successfully bridge the gap between classroom practice and application to leveled readers and books on library shelves. You need:
- An expansive collection of over 300 modern decodable books
- Opportunities for direct application of concepts learned in class
- Fiction, non-fiction, and poetry options paired with varied artistic styles
- Scaffolded content with extensive sight words and relevant vocabulary
Decoding is a key component of structured literacy – MindPlay Decodable Books help students develop the fluency they need to see themselves as readers, able to pick up any book and confidently dive in!
