Reading words in isolation, often called the “Whole Word Reading Drill” in an Orton-Gillingham Lesson, is an essential part of learning to read words quickly and accurately without context clues.  The above chart can be used to review decodable words and nonsense syllables used so far in the decodable stories.  The student can read the words across the chart, then down, then randomly.  The goal is to become fluent with each word and not sound them out.  Some students will need larger print charts to start or charts with fewer words. The “story” is simply a list of the words on the chart; a caregiver can model for the student how to read it quickly and accurately and even with expression.
