Water All Around

Water is found all around the world. It travels and changes form through the water cycle. It evaporates into vapor, flows in rivers, falls from clouds as rain, and turns into snow and ice when it’s cold. Beginning readers hone their phonics skills while learning about the water cycle. As readers practice decoding words with diphthongs /ow/ and /oi/, they gain science knowledge. Every Stairway Decodables book combines multiple aspects of the Science of Reading to support small group instruction, independent reading, and reading practice at home.
