Decodable — A Box of Hats

Short u decodable a box of hats reading universe

Use this decodable text to give students practice in reading closed-syllable words with short 'u'. For example, the letter 'u' in bus represents the short 'u' sound because the vowel is closed in by the consonant 's'.

Reading Universe is made possible by generous support from Jim & Donna Barksdale, the AFT, the Emily Hall Tremaine Foundation, and three anonymous donors.
