I have learned how to reduce the size of PDF files while keeping the images and text readable. I'm adding the compressed files in addition to the regular files. They are generally less than half the size of the regular PDF files. To open one of the compressed files, click on the blue-gray bar below the regular green file bar.

The phonics patterns books are
available in three different versions. There are three sets of books that teach phonics patterns. All three sets teach the same phonics patterns in the same order, but they are not printed in the same format. In each set of books students read a list of words for each new pattern learned. Students also read short practice stories after several new patterns have been studied. The two phonics patterns workbooks can be used with any version.

Practice Stories Book
This book contains just the illustrated stories from the phonics patterns books, without the phonetic word lists.

Color-Coded Phonetic Lists
This book contains word lists for each of the phonics patterns taught at Level 4. The vowels are color-coded. The words are not illustrated. For each pattern, students read both rhyming lists and body-coda lists, which begin with the same consonant-vowel combinations. Reading both types of lists helps students build fluency when decoding (reading words phonetically).
Older 2014
Decoding Practice Books The sequence, words lists, and stories in these older books are mostly the same as the Basic Phonics Patterns books, with a few differences. The charts are in a slightly different format. If you were using these from the old web site and want to continue using them you can download the PDF files for the books here. You should be able to use Phonics Patterns Workbook For Books 1-4 and Phonics Patterns Workbook For Books 5-8, with minor adjustments.

Level 4 Phonics Patterns Workbooks
Use these workbooks with any of the three sets of level four books. They all teach the same phonics patterns in the same sequence. I have added optional instructions at the end of the two workbooks that tell how to play the "Robot Game" and do spelling dictation using just the workbook pages. The Robot Game uses oral blending exercises for each set of words and pictures to prepare students to read them with confidence.

Older Phonics Pattern Books - To Teach/Review Consonant And Vowel Patterns
The books shown below are older books from the previous web site, but I think they could still be useful. Students practice reading word lists and a group of sentences for each of the consonant or vowel patterns. The phonics patterns are not taught in sequential order like they are taught in the books shown above. They are arranged in alphabetical order, to make it easy to find the pattern you are looking for. The books include both basic and advanced patterns. The words and sentences are not illustrated, and they are printed in all black print. The pattern to study is shown at the top of each page along with a key word and picture. In each book, students read rhyming word lists first, wherever possible, then a mixed list (all with the same pattern, but not rhyming), followed by a group of sentences which contain words with the new pattern.
