I began with a review of the three syllable types Eliana has learned: closed (hid), open (hi) and silent-e (hide). We played a game of Phonics Dice to reinforce the concepts. Next, I dictated isolated syllables; Eliana wrote them and then matched the syllables to make real words (human, mistake, neon, inside, dislike, reptile, invent, absent, disgust). To review her spelling deck, I dictated two sentences for Eliana to write and edit. We practiced last session's cursive letters (c, o, a, d) in a larger format which helped Eliana with proper letter formation. To conclude, I introduced a new syllable (r-controlled), specifically -er, -ir, and -ur. We played a round of Crazy Moose (basically, Uno with syllables) to reinforce the new concepts.
