Marnie Heintz, an instructional coach with Medicine Hat Public School Division, is here to decode decodable books.
Decodables are simple books that focus on specific spelling
patterns that students have already learned so they can gain confidence as they
learn how to read. The large collection of decodables at Medicine Hat Public
Library features short texts with simple pictures for beginning readers as well
graphic novels and beautifully illustrated texts that keep them engaged and progress
in difficulty as students’ reading ability increases.
Talk with MHPL staff to learn more about our decodable book
collection and visit www.readingrockets.org
to learn even more about how decodables can help any beginning reader.
