I began with a review of the sound deck with visual, auditory, and blending drills. Graphemes included b, a, d, I, e, u, x, o, sh, wh, and ck and phonemes /er/, /w/, /k/, /sh/, /x/. Words on the blending board included bird, third, gird, hard, herd, had, hid, hide, ride, rid. I reviewed phonological awareness using a PowerPoint slide with movable squares to help Wyatt visualize the syllables in a word and then delete one syllable of a two or three-syllable word. I introduced the grapheme ar as a new concept. Using UFLI slides to guide the lesson, I showed Wyatt grapheme location, and he read example words. To reinforce the concept, we co-read a decodable text, "Marvin's Trip to Mars."
