We began the session with a phonological awareness exercise, Level I1. This exercise was easy for Glen: we will move up a level in the next meeting. He sequenced Alpha Chips in 51 seconds. I reviewed the sound deck, emphasizing vowel teams, R controlled, ou, ow, and the three sounds of ea and y. We took a quick sight word Jenga break. Glen then syllabicated a list of three-syllable words. I concluded teaching the Latin root "dec," which means "ten." Then we talked about the words decade, decimal, etc. but were curious about "December." We watched a video that explained the names of the months. December was the tenth month before Julius Caesar codified the calendar. Interesting! Glen illustrated a page for his notebook, showing a calendar changing from the old decade (2019) to the new (2020). As always, Glen is a delight to teach!
