1. Read the poster placed in a store window to the students:
Ted‘s Batting Cages Grab a bat and a helmet. New customers get two free visits. New Pattern
—Short a and e Estimated Time: 5 min.
≈ Write bat on the board.
2. Ask, ―How do you pronounce this word?‖ (bat)
3. Ask, ―What is the vowel sound in bat?‖ (/a/)
4. Ask, ―Which word in the Document of the Day has the same vowel sound as bat?‖
(grab) ≈ Write grab on the board. The list will look like this: bat grab Lesson 2
Lesson Plans 2-3 Ask, ―Can you think of any other words with the /a/ sound?” (examples: cat, hat, that, bat) ≈
Write the students‘ words on the board.
5. Ask, ―Can you think of any other words that end with a-b?” (examples: flab, nab, cab) ≈ Write the students‘ words on the board.
6.Ask, ―What kind of letter follows the a in each word?‖ (a consonant)
[NOTE: If students say the letters b or t, ask them if those letters are vowels or consonants.]
7. Ask, ―What letters are vowels?‖ (a, e, i, o, u, and sometimes y) [NOTE: If students mention w, commend them for remembering that w can serve as a vowel in combination with other vowels, as in ow in cow.] Explain, ―The rest of the letters are consonants.‖
≈ Write the words bad and bed on the board.
8. Ask, ―What type of letter, consonant or vowel, is in the middle of these words?‖ (vowel)
9. Say, ―Bad will be our key word for the sound /a/. Bed will be our key word for the sound /e/. The sound of the vowel in both of these words is short.‖
10. Explain, ―I want to explain why we are using key words for short vowel sounds. Short vowel sounds are hard to hear and distinguish. We will use the same consonant-vowel-consonant pattern of b_d for the key words.
We call this pattern the CVC pattern for consonant-vowel-consonant.
By keeping the consonants on either side of the vowel the same, it is easier to concentrate on the sound that the vowel is making.‖
Say, ―Please repeat the words after me. Say the word, the separate sounds, the word again, and the vowel sound.‖ bad, /b/ /a/ /d/, bad, /a/ bed, /b/ /e/ /d/, bed, /e/ [NOTE: Keep a very rapid pace for the following sequence.]
11. Ask, ―Can someone tell me what the key word for short a is?‖ (bad) Ask, ―Can someone say the sounds in bad?‖ (/b/ /a/ /d/)
Lesson 2 Lesson Plans 2-4
Phonics teaching
materials often talk about "short" and "long" vowels, as
though the latter are just extended versions of the former.
The five vowels
usually called "short" are:
- "a" as in "cat",
- "e" as in "red",
- "i" as in "sit",
- "o" as in "not",
- "u" as in "bus".
The five vowels
usually called "long", and which children are told "say their
(letter) name", are:
- "a" as in "paper",
- "e" as in "be",
- "i" as in "find",
- "o" as in "go",
- "u" as in "human".

Ask, ―Can someone tell me what sound the a in bad represents?‖ (/a/) Ask, ―Can someone tell me the key word for the short e?‖ (bed) Ask, ―Can someone say the sounds in bed?‖ (/b/ /e/ /d/) Ask, ―Can someone tell me what sound the e in bed represents?‖ (/e/) Ask, ―Please repeat after me: /a/.‖ (/a/) Say, ―Notice the position of my mouth when I say /a/.‖ Say, ―Now, repeat /e/ after me.‖ (/e/) Ask, ―Can you alternate between the sounds /a/ and /e/?‖ [NOTE: Say /a/ followed by /e/ three or four times to model what you will ask students to do next. Exaggerate the position of your mouth.] Say, ―Say /a/ and then /e/.‖ Ask, ―What happens to your mouth when you change from the sound /a/ to /e/?‖ (The mouth moves from being wide open to having more of a smile.) Ask, ―What is the key word for short a?‖ (bad) Ask, ―What sound does a represent?‖ (/a/) Additional Words for Re-teaching: /a/: sat, rag, pat, map, /e/: pet, red, hen, pen
Parts of Words—Segmenting and Blending Estimated Time: 10 min.
Say, ―In order to spell words that you do not already know, you need to hear all the sounds in the word.‖ ≈ Write rat on the board.
Say, ―For example, if I want to spell the word rat, I say the word slowly and listen for all of the sounds—rat, /r/ /a/ /t/, rat. What is the key word associated with this sound?‖ (bad) ≈ Write tap on the board.
Say, ―The next word is tap, /t/ /a/ /p/, tap. It helps some people to tap their fingers as they do it.‖ Lesson 2 Lesson Plans 2-5
Repeat the sequence, tapping thumb to fingers for each sound—tap, /t/ /a/ /p/, tap. For the rest of these segmenting activities, model tapping your fingers. Say, ―Let‘s try some other examples—how about the word slap.
Say the word quietly to yourself and see if you can tell how many sounds you hear.‖ Ask, ―How many sounds are in the word slap?‖ (four) Say, ―Good! Listen as I do this example for you; slap, /s/ /l/ /a/ /p/, slap.‖
Say, ―Now try to segment the word stop on your own.‖
Ask, ―Would someone like to try it for us? Please say the word, segment it, and then say the word again.‖ (Stop, /s/ /t/ /o/ /p/, stop.)
Say, ―Let‘s do one more—the next word is blast. How many sounds do you hear in this word?‖ (five)
Say, ―That‘s right! Try that one on your own. [pause] Would anyone like to try that one for us aloud?‖ (Blast, /b/ /l/ /a/ /s/ /t/, blast.)
Say, ―Now we will do the same thing using syllables instead of words. Syllables are parts of words. It is important to get comfortable with looking at the smaller parts of words in order to read longer words more easily.‖
≈ Write crat on the board. Say, ―The first syllable we‘ll look at is crat, /c/ /r/ /a/ /t/, crat. The syllable crat is in the word democrat, or technocrat, and many others.‖
≈ Write democrat and technocrat under the syllable crat. Underline the syllable crat in each word. The list should look like this: crat democrat technocrat
Say, ―The next syllable is mag. Would someone like to segment this one?‖ (mag, /m/ /a/ /g/, mag.) Say, ―The syllable mag is in the word magazine and also in magnet.‖ Lesson 2 Lesson Plans 2-6 ≈ Write mag on the board. Under it write the two examples magnet and magazine: mag magnet magazine Say, ―Next we are going to work on blending. These words and syllables have a short e.‖ ≈ Write beg, sled, and ness on the board in a list.
Say, ―These words may be easy to read, but you can use the same skill when you come upon longer words. When you need to read a word that you don‘t know, you say each of the sounds and then blend them together. I will do the first few for you; just listen as I say each sound.‖ Point to beg on the board.
Say, ―Here is the first one: /b/ /e/ /g/, beg. Everyone repeat that please.‖ (/b/ /e/ /g/, beg.) Point to sled.
Say, ―The next word is: /s/ /l/ /e/ /d/, sled. Will everyone repeat that please?‖ (/s/ /l/ /e/ /d/, sled.)
Say, ―Please turn to Activity A in your Activity Book. Look at the first word.‖ Say, ―The first word is best. Point to the letters as you hear me say the sounds: /b/ /e/ /s/ /t/, best. Notice that there are 2 consonants together, s and t. You hear each of the sounds. We call this a consonant blend. You blend the sounds of the consonants together to say the word.‖ Say, ―Look at the next example in column one: /b/ /a/ /th/, bath. Notice that t-h makes one sound, /th/. You do not hear the sound of a t -- /t/ or h -- /h/; th together makes a new sound—/th/.
When two consonants together make one sound, we call that a digraph. Di means 2; graph means something written. So digraph means 2 letters.
‖ Say, ―The next one is: /p/ /a/ /ck/, pack. The same is true with the letters ck, they make one sound, /k/. C-k is also a digraph like t-h.‖ Say, ―I would like you to do the rest of these aloud. Who would like to try the first one in column 2?‖ (/b/ /a/ /d/, bad) Lesson 2 Lesson Plans 2-7 Continue with columns 2-5, as in the examples above. When you get to column 4, say, ―The next 2 columns are syllables. After you blend them, see if you can tell me a word that has that syllable.‖ (Possible answers are listed below.) Activity Book, Lesson 2, Activity A Read the Words and Syllables 1 2 3 4 5 best bad nap hap (happy) slen (slender) bath rent mess sen (sensitive) dras (drastic) pack fled grasp cred (credit) san (sandal) The CVC Pattern Estimated Time: 10 min. Say, ―Now we are going to learn about one syllable pattern, or type of syllable, that has a short vowel—the CVC pattern. All of the words and syllables in these activities fit the CVC pattern.‖ ≈ Write bet on the board, writing ―C” or ―V” under each letter. Say, ―The letter b is a consonant, so I‘m going to write ―C” for consonant under the b, e is a vowel so I am going to write a ―V” for vowel under it, and t is a consonant, so I am going to write ―C” under it.‖ [NOTE: The word should appear like this on the board:] bet CVC Say, ―A CVC syllable has one vowel and ends in a consonant. It doesn‘t matter how many consonants come before or after the single vowel.‖ ≈ Write bat, brat, pest, clasp, and bled on the board. Ask, ―Which of these words follow the CVC pattern?‖ (All of them.) Say, ―Let‘s look at these more closely. Notice the CVC pattern in each word. Each word has one vowel and ends in a consonant.‖ Point to bat and write the corresponding letters CVC under the word. bat cvc Say, ―B is a consonant, a is a vowel, and t is a consonant. Does everyone see the pattern—one vowel and ends in a consonant?‖ Lesson 2 Lesson Plans 2-8 Point to brat and write the corresponding letters CVC under the word. brat cvc Say, ―Notice the pattern in this word. Does it fit our rule for a CVC word?‖ (yes) Point to pest and write the corresponding letters CVC under the word. pest cvc Ask, ―What do you notice in the word pest?‖ (There are two consonants after the vowel.) Say, ―That‘s right, but it doesn‘t matter how many consonants come before or after the vowel. To fit the pattern, the syllable has to have one vowel and end in a consonant. So pest fits the pattern.‖ [NOTE: Do the other examples in the same way.] Say, ―Let‘s try a few other examples before we go on to the next activity.‖ ≈ Write ad, cake and try on the board. Point to ad. Ask, ―Does this word fit the pattern for a CVC word? (Yes) Why?‖ (Because it has one vowel and ends in a consonant.) Point to cake. Ask, ―What about the word cake?‖ (This word does not fit the pattern because it has two vowels and it doesn’t end with a consonant.) Point to try. Ask, ―Is there a vowel in this word?‖ (Yes, the letter y is acting as a vowel.) Say, ―That‘s right. Does this word fit the CVC pattern?‖ (No, it doesn’t because it doesn’t end with a consonant; it ends with a vowel.) Say, ―Now it is your turn to decide if a syllable follows the CVC pattern or not. Look at Activity B in your books. These are all syllables you might find in a longer word. Decide if the syllable fits the CVC pattern and place a check in the appropriate column. Read the syllable to yourself.‖ (Teachers’ Guide shows the correct answers. Student Activity Books do not have checks.) Lesson 2 Lesson Plans 2-9 Activity Book, Lesson 2, Activity B Sort the Syllables Syllable CVC Not CVC dis √ ket √ chim √ ic √ mod √ bab √ creat √ trans √ peek √ lo √ Display the transparency/PowerPoint. Choose a few words and ask students to explain why the syllables are or are not CVC syllables. Ask students to pronounce the CVC syllables (but not the non-CVC syllables). Point to the Six Syllable Patterns Chart. Say, ―This chart shows 6 syllable types that we will learn about. Today we learned about the first one—the CVC syllable. You have a copy of this chart at the back of your Activity Book to use as a reference.‖ Additional Words for Re-teaching: nap, snap, west, blast, blab, ab, rake, try. Syllabification Estimated Time: 10 min. Say, ―Next we are going to look at some of the syllables from Activity B and see how they fit together with other syllables to create longer words.‖ ≈ Write mod on the board. Say, ―The syllable mod is found in many other words.‖ ≈ Write modern, modify, and module under the syllable mod. Underline the syllable mod in each word. Mark the syllable divisions with slashes like this: mod / ern mod / i / fy mod / ule [NOTE: The targeted syllable, mod, is a CVC syllable. Students should be able to read this syllable. If they are unable to read the other syllables that are not Lesson 2 Lesson Plans 2-10 CVC, do not worry about it. Explain that they will learn how to pronounce those syllables later. Do not bring attention to these syllables unless the students ask about them.] Say, ―Let‘s look at another example.‖ ≈ Write trans on the board. Say, ―Can anyone think of a word which contains the syllable trans?‖ (examples: transfer, transit, transport) ≈ Write any examples students provide on the board. If they do not offer suggestions, write the words transfer, transit, and transport. Underline the syllables. trans / fer trans / it trans / port Say, ―Next let‘s look at the syllable dis.‖ ≈ Write discredit on the board. Say, ―This word contains three syllables. Who can tell us what they are?‖ (dis / cred / it) ≈ Write the word in separate syllables on the board – dis / cred / it Say, ―Great. You can see how much easier it is to read longer words when you divide them into syllables.‖ Spelling Rule Estimated Time: 5 min. ≈ Write mess, cuss, fluff, dreff, bell, ball, and sell on the board. Say, ―Now I‘m going to give you a spelling tip for CVC words. Look at the words mess, cuss, fluff, dreff, bell, ball, and sell.‖ Ask, ―Can someone tell me what they have in common?‖ (The final consonant is doubled.) Point to the first spelling rule on the Spelling Rules Chart. Lesson 2 Lesson Plans 2-11 Say, ―This is an easy spelling rule to learn. In one syllable CVC words that end in either s, f, or l, the final consonant is doubled. Of course there are exceptions such as is, gas, pal, etc. but generally the rule holds.‖ [NOTE: Write gas, is and pal on the board as you say them.] Additional Words for Re-teaching: less, press, bell, well, puff, stuff. Progress Check Estimated Time: 5 min. Say, ―Please turn to Activity C for Lesson 2. I am going to dictate some real words for you to write.‖
