Lesson Outline
Today was the first session with Rhett and Wyatt together at school. Jay from the IT department set up the iPads at 2:30. The boys arrived at 2:40. The environment was very loud (I believe that they were in the front office; the teacher supervising also had another class and dismissal duty at the same time).
Once the boys were settled down, I conducted the following OG lesson: I reviewed the sound deck with visual, auditory, and blending drills. We did a phonemic awareness exercise using Elkonin Boxes. The boys co-read an Oral Reading Fluency passage called "The Bug" and accurately answered two comprehension questions. To conclude, we played a game of Phonics Dice to practice CVC words.

Lesson Comments
The environment at St. Clares is not at all conducive to learning. It was noisy and busy. Rhett was actually fairly well behaved but Wyatt was a wild banana. I spent half the session settling them down. If they were in a separate room that was quiet I believe that I could control them. There was some tech confusion. I didn't know that both boys would have devices and I had never had a dual class like that. I hope that tomorrow goes better. If not, we are going to have to make other arrangements.
