Ashley began her session by learning the Healthy Owl/Sick Owl phonics trick for the "oo" combination. Using the white board, Ashley drew a healthy looking owl and a sick looking owl. We then discussed the different sounds that healthy owls make compared to sick owls. Healthy owls make the "hoo" sounds (like cool) while sick owls cough and make an "u" sound (like book). Ashley came up with a lengthy list of both healthy owl "oo" words and sick owl "oo" words. After our phonics work, we went to the computer lab and worked on the Raz Kids reading site. Ashley read a book called Fast and Faster and during the reading we worked on decoding skills to help her with the unfamiliar words. Upon completion, we discussed the main idea and supporting details and Ashley concluded by taking the comprehension quiz.
