Knowledge Building Collection

Introducing the Knowledge Building Collection by Storyshares

Traditional decodable readers often prioritize phonics over content, neglecting the importance of building background knowledge and comprehension.

The Storyshares Knowledge-Building Collection bridges this gap by seamlessly integrating phonics instruction with engaging, informative content, written specifically for striving readers in grades 3 and up.

From American History to STEM, creative careers to sports, these books enhance any structured literacy program.
