PLACEMENT READER 6 FREE (Read me after Book 6)

Title: Free Placement Reader 6: The Restless Duck

Description: Has your child mastered the endings that build big words? This free little story checks everything in Book 6 in about ten minutes.

A small, restless duck slips out of the open gate looking for an adventure, and a helpful sheepdog has to walk her home. Your child reads the story out loud while you listen and keep a simple tally. The story uses only what Books 1–6 teach, including endings like -ful, -less, -ly, -ment, -ish, -ible, -ize, -tion, -ture and -ous, and the spelling changes (dropping the e, doubling a letter, and changing y to i), all in plain print with no reading marks.

What’s inside:

• A one-page parent guide: how to listen, how to score, and what the result means
• A “Still tricky?” page that names the Book 6 lesson for each ending your child got stuck on
• The story as a little book you print and fold, or read on a tablet
• Where to go next, with links to Books 5 and 6

A child who reads it smoothly, needing help with no more than 1 word in 20, has finished Book 6 and can read long words part by part. If it feels too hard, try Placement Reader 5 first.

Free to print for your own child or students.
