Nicholas began by reviewing letters and sounds. The alphabet cards we use show the capital and small letter side by side. (When I assess him, the letters are shown separately.) He had difficulty recognizing "Vv" today. He was able to identify and tell the sound for Aa, Bb, Cc, Dd, Ee, Ff, Gg, Hh, Ii, Jj, Kk, Ll, Mm, Nn, Oo, Pp, Qq, Rr, Ss, Tt, Ww, Xx, Yy, and Zz. We are working on the letter"Uu," which he sometimes confuses with "Ww." I am continuing to ask Nicholas to print the letters he could not print on his last assessment. He printed "M," "G," D," "F,' "W," "B," and "E." When asked to print "D," he printed "B." He also printed "m," and "b." Nicholas' list of sight words is growing. He read the following words: at, a, for, is, I, and go. It would benefit Nicholas to practice these words as well as the ones that gave him difficulty today: the, to, and it(Can be sounded out.) I wanted to begin word families with Nicholas (-ay), but he was quite tired. At this point we switched gears and played "Undersea ABCs," using the lowercase side of the board.
