I began with a one-minute phonological awareness exercise, level E4#2 (deleting one syllable from a three-syllable word). Next, Eliana performed several alphabetic awareness exercises: sequencing the alphabet, identifying vowels and consonants, and building three different syllable types. We played a game of Phonics Dice with these syllable types (closed, open, silent-e) to reinforce the concepts. Eliana continues to confuse b/d; we played a game of b/d tic-tac-toe. After reviewing the VC/CV syllable division pattern, I introduced the next pattern, V/CV (aka, "tiger" words). Eliana practiced dividing both patterns on the white board. For spelling, I reviewed her spelling deck (words with final blends, such as "bend") by dictating both words and sentences. Eliana practiced cursive (i, t, u, w, r, s, j, p, y). To conclude, we co-read a chapter from a Junie B. Jones book.
