Daily(ish) Decodable: Jewel Day

The Daily(ish) Decodable program uses a standard format to work through one sound per day. There are simple instructions for you, the parent or caregiver, and any words in big bold letters are meant for your child to read out loud. 


Today we're going to review the “-ew” sound in words like “new” or “jewel.”

Jewel Day

 

Today is Jewel Day.

 

A jewel is a rare gem or stone. Jewels can be sparkly and fun.

 

Can you name any jewels? Here are some:


  • An emerald is green,

  • A jade is also green, but it tends to be cloudy in color,

  • A ruby is red,

  • A sapphire is normally blue, and

  • An opal can be a rainbow of different colors.


A jeweler is someone who uses stones and gems like these to make pretty jewelry. Rings, earrings, and bracelets are all forms of jewelry.


-------------------------------


Explain It

Now have your child answer a couple questions about the story:


  1. What is a jewel?

  2. How many types of jewels can you name?
