Samantha recited the sounds for several consonants, short vowels and digraphs. The concept of bonus letters was discussed. Several words were built using the magnetic tiles. Samantha was asked to read the words (many of them were nonsense words). The concept of tapping unknown words was also discussed. The word cards from steps 1.3 and 1.4 were read by Samantha. For the final portion of the session Samantha was introduced to reading and charting words. This lesson will continue at the next session.
