Cade had a productive session today. After our alphabetic awareness exercises (sequencing, vowels, consonant, syllable identification), I dictated detached syllables for Cade to write, match to make actual words, and write the orders (number, under, sister). This exercise also served as a review of /er/ syllables. Next, I presented Cade with a list of two-syllable words with /er/and/ir/ words to syllabicate (under, timber, shelter, confirm, skirmish). I then dictated words for him to write (shirl, birth, stern, ver, chirp, shirt) followed by sentences that included similar words and irregular words (His sister has his number. She said the rock is under the bed). I prompted Cade to edit his work with the CAPS acronym. I introduced a new concept, /you're/, showing examples such as fur, blur, burn, and spur. We played two rounds of Crazy Moose to solidify the concepts. To conclude, Cade read a decoable book from FlyLeaf Publishing, "This and That."
