Daily(ish) Decodable: Pokemon 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 start by reviewing the words “where” and “there.” These words are partially decodable, but they do NOT follow the normal “Magic E” rule. 


You can review all of the prior lessons here

Pokemon Day

 

It's Pokemon Day!

 

Pokemon is about a young trainer named Ash Ketchum. He travels everywhere around the world to catch and train some Pokémon. 

 

There are a lot of different Pokemon!

 

There is Pikachu. He is the main mascot. He is yellow, with a small mouth and long pointy ears.

 

There is Charmander, a lizard that can shoot fire out of his tail.

 

There is Bulbasaur, who lives in the grass and is green-ish in color.

 

And last but not least, there is Squirtle. He has a turtle shell and can walk on two legs.

Explain It

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


  1. What day is it today?

  2. Can you describe one of the characters in the story?
