Eliana arrived with a book she was excited to read, so we began with that. Entitled "Kung Pow Chicken: Let's Get Cracking," it is a graphic novel that (while silly) is precisely on her grade level and of interest. I conducted visual, auditory, and blending drills. We reviewed the ee vowel team, and I taught ea /ē/ as a new concept. Eliana chose examples of words to add to her SLAP vowel team deck. To conclude, we organized her backpack and school notebooks.
