Lesson Outline
Wyatt arrived at our session on time and ready to work. I conducted a review of the sound deck with visual, auditory, and visual drills. The letter sounds included were b, a, d, ph, th, i, e, w, u, x, o, ch, y, sh, wh and ck. To build phonemic awareness, we did an exercise with Elkonin boxes in which Wyatt had to identify the phonemes (letter sounds) of two-phoneme words. Next, we reviewed the following irregular words: the, to, and you. Wyatt could read, but not spell, the words. He practiced the skill and identified the part of the words that do not follow the expected rules. To conclude, Wyatt read aloud the book "Can You See 3" which repeated the irregular word "you" on every page and decodable CVC words for practice. I was delighted with Wyatt's focus today.

Lesson Comments
I was pleased with Wyatt's work today. He sat down and commented "I'm glad that dumb baby isn't here. He has to repeat first grade because he acts like my baby sister." I can see your point that retention is problematic. The St. Clare's teachers are very kind. They are trying to create as quiet a work environment as possible.
