SAMPLE , Story 1 of 11

Alex and his friend Jan went on a class trip to the big hall in town. Inside were huge frames of creatures from long ago. The first one had a jaw as long as a car. "Look at those claws," Jan said. Alex read the sign next to it. It said the creature had lived millions of years in the past. They walked to the next room. A creature with huge wings hung from the roof. Jan took a picture of it. "That one could fly," she said. Alex saw a nest of eggs behind glass. The eggs were the size of his head. "I wish I could have seen these things when they were still here," Alex said. Jan nodded. They spent the rest of the day going from room to room. By the end, Alex had filled his whole note pad with drawings. It was the best class trip he had ever been on.

In the PDF, every story uses the placeholder “[name]” that you can fill in with your child's name before printing.

The full PDF includes all 11 stories, formatted in Lexend (a dyslexia-friendly font) at 14-18pt with 1.7x line spacing.

Why LUCA Decodable Stories Are Different

LUCA is built on research validated by the International Dyslexia Association's standards for structured literacy.

Phoneme-Level Listening

SoundScout captures individual phoneme-level speech in real time, identifying exactly which vowel sound or blend is causing difficulty rather than simply marking a whole word as incorrect.
