About this resource

Description

Consonant blends like ST are one of the first big steps a young reader takes after learning single letter sounds. In a blend, two letters stand side by side and each one keeps its own sound, so a child has to hold both sounds together and read them smoothly. The Stella on Stone Street ST Phonics Stories Reading Comprehension Worksheet gives first graders a short, friendly story packed with ST words — Stella, Stone Street, steps, store, stop, stork, stream, still, story and start — so the blend is practiced inside real reading instead of an isolated word list.

This 1st Grade ST blends worksheet is built as a three-page set. Page one holds an original illustrated story about Stella and Austin, who spot a tall stork standing in a stream on their walk to school. Page two asks five fill-in-the-bubble comprehension questions drawn from across the whole story, and the final page is a complete answer key. Read the story aloud together first, then let students reread it on their own before they answer. Ask them to circle every ST word they can find on the story page, and one worksheet quietly becomes two activities.

What’s Included

  • 1 print-ready PDF worksheet
  • Answer key
  • 1 illustrated ST phonics story and 5 multiple-choice comprehension questions

Three things make the Stella on Stone Street ST Phonics Stories Reading Comprehension Worksheet work well in a classroom. First, it builds decoding and comprehension at the same time, so children are never choosing between sounding words out and understanding what they read. Second, the story is written on grade level with short, predictable sentences, which lets a first grader read it independently and finish feeling successful. Third, the fill-in-the-bubble format gives students early, low-pressure practice with the answer style they will meet on reading assessments later on.

Away from the page, hunt for ST words around the room and around the house: stop signs, stairs, stools, stamps, a stack of books, a step by the door. Build a word ladder from stop to stomp to stump. Have children write their own two-sentence ST story and draw a picture to match it, or sort picture cards into ST and not-ST piles. A five-minute blend hunt before reading time keeps the sound fresh all week long.
