Welcome to Story Star Blastoff

Welcome to Story Star Blastoff! These books and associated activities focus on earlier reading skills such as vowel teams and other complex vowel sounds. These skills are typically associated with Second or Third Grade, but it depends on the child and what skill they need to practice, so consider whether these are a good fit for your child’s skill level. The activities should be challenging without being overly frustrating.

Allow your child to move at their own pace and take breaks when needed. Nothing contained in the bag or in these activities needs to be done in one sitting! As you read, discuss what you are reading, and even write about it!

Above all else, have fun with it! Reading is a skill that only improves with practice, and so we keep it fun so that we can keep on practicing.

For even more resources to help you and your child, try our main story star page.

NOTE: You can find your bag using the label in the bottom left corner of your bag. That key word will be CAPITALIZED in the full title of the bag.
