Lesson Outline
Wyatt and I had a terrific session this morning. I began with a phonological awareness exercise which asked Wyatt to repeat a two-syllable word, then delete a syllable ("say bookcase; now say bookcase but don't say book.") Next, Wyatt sequenced the alphabet using manipulative letters. I introduced the concept of vowels and consonants. I then reviewed the sound deck (letter cards) with visual, auditory, and blending drills. To conclude, we played a game of Connect 4. Wyatt rolled the dice with vowels, and picked a consonant-vowel-consonant word on the gameboard. He then rolled for me. Wyatt was delighted to win! Great job, Wyatt!

Lesson Comments
Wyatt is starting to get the hang of it. He is very (age-appropriately) wiggly, but can attend. Sequencing the alphabet took him about 5 minutes. He knows all letters and sounds but needs a lot of practice blending and doesn't understand the concept of vowels and consonants. I am going to repeat this lesson a few times with the goal of increasing his alphabetc knowledge. The game was a big hit!
