UPDATED- PLEASE READ: This reading strategies bundle has been revised to include phonics-based decoding strategies, aligning more with science of reading -based teaching practices. Please read below for each character and the strategy it now represents.

Stretchy Snake – sound out each letter, then blend
Lips the Fish – find the first vowel, say the first sound(s), then blend the rest (onset and rime)
Chunky Monkey – find parts you know inside the word
Syllable Sammy – break apart words into syllables between consonants
Flippy Dolphin – When one sound doesn’t work, think of another sound you know (short/long vowels, soft/hard c/g, etc)
Eagle Eye– confirmation strategy- after reading, check the picture

For each strategy above, there is an introduction PowerPoint presentation to teach the strategy, as well as posters, centers, certificates, mini-tools, and digital activities!

⭐️⭐⭐️⭐️⭐️ “This resource was great for teaching students reading strategies. The PowerPoint lessons are very interactive and engaging. I also like the print materials that go with each strategy. The students enjoyed getting the business card sized certificates after they showed the ability to use each strategy.” -Jennifer A.
