Kellan started his lesson by reciting the vowels and their keywords. Kellan practiced the digraphs and consonants: sh, v, z, g, l,m, p, qu, j, and ck. He practiced the welded sounds: ong, ost, old, ind, ank, and onk. Next, Kellan did markups on the words: stumps, lunch, and splash. These markups helped Kellan review baseword and suffix, digraph blend, and three-letter blend. Kellan was introduced to words with two syllables: upset, nutmeg, sunlit, lapdog, and public. In these words, Kellan could see the words split after the first consonant or between two consonants. Kellan learned that a syllable has one vowel sound. Kellan practiced dividing the words: catnip, bathtub, napkin, sunfish, cactus, and tennis. Kellan played Ladder to practice a stack of words from Lesson 3.1. Kellan practiced writing the sight words: often, listen, want, half, and comb. Next, Kellan was tested on the word list on p. 2. He received a 15/15 or perfect score on reading these words. Kellan read ten sentences from page 16 to practice putting two-syllable words in context. Kellan reviewed phrasing and worked on smooth, automatic reading.
