Decoding Duo Structured Literacy Routines to Accompany Half Pint Kids Level A Sets 1 & 2

This Decoding Duo manual is meant to accompany Half Pint Kids Level A Sets 1 and 2 (published by Half Pint Kids). These books are appropriate for students reading at the Kindergarten level and who require practice with vc/cvc words.

These structured literacy routines support the development of literacy skills through a set of 11 different instructional activities that align with each book from the series. There are 12 lessons in this manual that teachers can use to teach over multiple days.

Activities build a range of skills that contribute to reading accuracy and fluency by developing critical phonemic awareness, phonics, sight word recognition, morphology, phrasing and spelling skills. Content also includes activities that enhance students’ vocabulary knowledge and sentence and passage level comprehension.

Accompanying scripts provide instructional support, and each lesson can be differentiated depending on student need.

This manual has 12 lessons as compared to our other Dandelion Launchers Manual with 8 lessons!
