PROGRAM OVERVIEW20PrintablesAll printables are accessed through the LP Digital Library. During a typical Exploration, the new reader is introduced in Step 1. Steps 2 through 5 rely on the Exploration Printables. Each printable is designed to provide skill building practice in vocabulary, grammar, writing, fluency, and comprehension. The skills presented in each printable align with the corresponding Voyages in English lesson concepts. For learning continuity, Reading in Action and Voyages in English define grammar and writing concepts in the same way.2STEPTHE BEGINNING AND THE ENDINGRead this story.

When you get to the end of a paragraph or page, go back to the sentence and read it again. Practice as many times as you need to get it right!

You read first, then your partner. Answer these questions together:Where did we stumble at first that became easier to read the second time? Where do we need to practice reading more smoothly next time? 3 When you finish, turn to pages 8 and 9. Look at the picture. Describe what is happening. Ask your partner how the picture makes him or her feel.MIDDLE PART PRACTICE1 Read the beginning and ending sentences below. Beginning: My family packed the car for vacation.Middle:Ending: We left the house late, but we still had a great time on our trip.2 On a separate sheet of paper, copy the beginning and ending sentences with several lines of space between them.
