# Print and Download Decodables in Five Formats

> Export LitLab decodables as printable PDFs in five layouts — booklet, mini-book, full-page, and more — to send home or use in classroom centers.

Every LitLab decodable is available as a printable PDF, with five different formats. Print for your phonics center, send a copy home for family practice, or build a take-home decodable folder for the year.

## Available Formats

## Send Home with Families

Printable take-home decodables strengthen the home–school connection. Pair every assigned story with a family-friendly note explaining the phonics skill.

<Tip>
  Build a "Friday Folder" routine: send home that week's decodable on Fridays so families can read together over the weekend.
