Dylan did well blending words with the ch, tch and wh digraphs. He was introduced to the ph digraph. Dylan practiced handwriting and digraphs by writing the name of a picture from a list of words. Proper spacing and size of letters was encouraged. Dylan enjoyed a digraph game in which he determined the digraph with which a given picture started. He listened to a brief passage. Together we talked about the main ideas and details of the passage. Dylan was pleased to read a short book that focused on short vowels and sight words. Dylan chose spear fishing as his favorite outdoor activity. He completed the circle map and prewriting graph. He utilized the prewriting tools to begin to write a paragraph. We will continue the paragraph tomorrow. I finished reading 'Gulliver's Travels'. Dylan enjoyed the book and predicted what might happen next. He spent the last few minutes of the session working on 'Reading Eggs' an online supplemental reading program.
