About This Reader
The Space Trip is a decodable, Grade 2 reading passage that focuses on the -ace word family to reinforce long A (silent e) phonics skills. The short narrative follows Mace and Trace as they travel in a rocket to see the moon, sun, and stars. The passage is designed to support early readers with decodable vocabulary (space, place, lace, face, pace, race) and includes audio integration so students can listen while they read. This resource aligns to the Common Core State Standard CCSS.ELA-LITERACY.RF.2.3 (phonics and word recognition) and supports NGSS 1-ESS1-1 (use observations of the sun, moon, and stars to describe patterns) at the K–2 level through its space-themed context. Teachers can use this passage for fluency practice, decoding drills, and listening-supported reading centers. Keywords included: long A, -ace word family, decodable passage, phonics practice, Grade 2 reading, space theme. Audio integrated for multimodal learning and student accessibility
