Who This Is For
- A parent or tutor running one on one reading sessions at home.
- A homeschool family who needs a structured low prep opening to every reading session.
- Anyone using the O-G method or structured literacy who needs a confidence building warm up before the main story.
- A child who has been through Story 1 and is ready for the next step.
How to Use It
Use it at the start of every session before opening the On the Line decodable reader. Five to ten minutes of warm up builds sight word recognition and gets the reader’s brain engaged before harder decoding work begins.
Works as a standalone lesson on its own. Works even better paired with the On the Line decodable reader from the Fishing Dock Series.

Everything I share here came from years of sitting across the table from a kid who learned differently. The printables in the shop are what we actually used. If you are looking for something age appropriate and built for an older struggling reader, start here.
