Kellan started his lesson today by practicing five sight words on the whiteboard using colorful markers. He was introduced to the words: listen and often. Both of these words have a silent "t" which Kellan needs to learn by rote. Kellan also reviewed the sight words: want, half, and comb. He remembered the "a" in want and the "l" in half. Kellan needed review on the "b" in comb. Next, Kellan read a large stack of 3.1 words including nonsense words. All of these words are two-syllable. Next, Kellan wrote the words upset, public, sunlit, and magnets. He learned how to mark up the syllables by scooping them. Then he marked up the vowels. For the word "magnets" Kellan underlined the baseword and circled the suffix also. Kellan took the word test on p. 2. He scored 15/15. This was great because it was his first test on two-syllable words. Kellan read ten sentences from p. 16. He did a good job sounding out every word and scooping the phrases that make sense for oral comprehension. This is call prosody. Kellan has a very good oral reading expression.
