“Jane's Safe Mix” is a free printable decodable reader designed for 1st grade students practicing silent e — long a phonics patterns. This mini-book uses phonetically controlled vocabulary so beginning readers can successfully sound out nearly every word in the story, building confidence and reinforcing the specific phonics skills they're learning.
The free PDF is a full-color illustrated mini-book: a cover, eight picture pages with one or two lines of story text each, and a back page listing the silent e — long a words, high-frequency words, and discussion questions. Print the five sheets, cut each one in half along the dashed line, and staple — your child has a real little book to hold. A read-aloud version with one large page per sheet is also included for projecting to the whole class.
This reader is part of our collection of free decodable readers organized by phonics skill and aligned with the Science of Reading. For additional practice with silent e — long a patterns, try our silent e — long a phonics worksheets which include word sorts, phrasing practice cards, and rapid naming charts.
