Publisher's Synopsis

Designed to be the second unit in first grade, Word Detectives supports students' word solving skills and their knowledge of high-frequency words. This playful unit expands on the important work that the entire series does to support youngsters' foundational reading skills.


In this unit, students will:

  • Learn to monitor their reading
  • Develop their word-solving skills
  • Become more adept at using letter-sound correspondence to tackle tricky words
  • Increase their bank of high-frequency words
  • Become more confident at using the words they know 'in a snap' to solve unknown words
  • Develop their fluency skills
This unit is especially perfect for classrooms where many students are moving into levels E, F, and G texts. The foundational decoding skills that students develop will put them in especially good stead before they move into reading nonfiction in Learning About the World.
