Journey Through the City

Cities are full of homes, shops, and other services. Beginning readers hone their phonics skills while learning all about places people might go in the city, such as a bank, community center, or ice rink. As readers practice decoding words with long e sounds spelled y and ey, they gain practical knowledge. Every Stairway Decodables nonfiction book combines multiple aspects of the Science of Reading to support small group instruction, independent reading, and reading practice at home.
