Thanks so much for purchasing my Firstie Fluency Sentences! This packet
is versatile in how you use it to best fit your students. The first option
would be to use these sentences as part of your intervention groups.
When focusing on the skills that align to these sentences you can have
students read through the kid-friendly passages. Each of the skills are
broken down within the packet so you can easily access the skills your
students are working on. When using the passages for intervention you
can choose to have students use a highlighter to draw attention to the
skill they are working on.

You can also use these sentences for homework practice if you choose.
Parents struggle finding books that are at their student’s level. These
passages would be quick and effective practice each night.

These sentences could be used as a guided reading warm up. While


students are waiting for you to prepare for the lesson or assign students
to their daily five location students at your table could be reading
through the passages you left at the table. Finally, you can easily leave
these passages for students to work on independently in a center, read
to self, etc.

These are simply print and go setences! You could always decide to
print on cardstock and laminate for best repeated use, but that is not
necessary. I hope you enjoy this packet and as always if you have
questions feel free to email me at [email protected].
