Lesson Outline
I began with a one-minute phonological awareness exercise. Phonological awareness is the ability to hear and manipulate sounds within words and is predictive of reading and spelling success (Kilpatrick, D2, #1). Using alphabet letters, I asked Remington to alphabetize the letters. He refused, so I demonstrated. I identified the initial, final, and median letters. I identified the vowels and consonants and defined a syllable. Next, I conducted visual, auditory, and blending drills with all letters and digraphs. I confirmed that Remington knows the concept of a closed, open, and silent-e syllable. We played a game of Phonics Dice with those three syllable types to reinforce the concepts. I taught Remington how to divide a VCCV word (e.g., rabbit). With support, he divided and read the word Batman. To conclude, I read a chapter of Captain Underpants.

Lesson Comments
Remi is quite oppositional. He works best with hands-on activities and games. He knows more than initial testing revealed. ADHD is his most significant obstacle to learning, in my opinion. I would encourage the parents to consider medication.
