Author Rob Osler coined the word quozy to be a blend of cozy mysteries with LGBTQ+ characters. 

Consonant-vowel-consonant (CVC) words with short vowel sounds, like bat and hop, are the first words students learn to read in their journey to independent reading.

Blends are two or three consonants that blend together, like /st/ in stop or /ck/ in rock. Each letter in the blend makes a sound. Digraphs are two consonants that together make one sound, such as /sh/ in shop or /ch/ in chat.

Silent-e (also known as magic-e) words follow a pattern of vowel + consonant + e, such as the words lake, slide, and hope. The vowel makes its long sound and the e is silent.
