Lesson 8 - Chaining

About this lesson

To learn more about this lesson, read the Lesson 8 Overview found under the Additional Materials tab.

Daily Learning Targets 

  • Opening A:
    • I can segment and blend CVC words with the phonemes (sounds): /p/, /a/, /n/, /m/, /v/, /th. 
    • I can say a three-phoneme word and segment (break apart) into individual phonemes (sounds) in order.
    • I can blend three phonemes to form a spoken word.
  • Opening B:
    • I can write the graphemes (letters) that match the phonemes (sounds): “p,” “a,” “n,” “m,” “v,” “th.” 
    • I can write the letter or letters for most of the consonant sounds I hear.
    • I can write the letter or letters for most of the short vowel sounds I hear.
    • I can look at each consonant and say its sound.
  • Work Time:
    • I can read and spell VC and CVC words with the phonemes (sounds): /p/, /a/, /n/, /m/, /v/, /th/, /s/, /z/. 
    • I can decode regularly spelled one-syllable words by mapping graphemes and phonemes.
    • I can read words with an “-s” ending.
    • I can identify the sound that corresponds to “th.”
    • I can use what I know about common spelling patterns to correctly spell words with those common patterns.

In Advance

  • Prepare:
    • Letter Formation Chart with visuals 
    • Short “a” Anchor Chart 
    • "th" Diagraph Anchor Chart 
    • Snapshot Assessment (optional)
  • Gather Materials for differentiated small group instruction (see Differentiated Small Groups: Work with Teacher).

 Digital Materials Preparation:

  • Prepare to display the lesson.

Vocabulary

  • Lesson-specific: blend, decode, proficient

Materials

  • “th” Digraph Anchor Chart (new; co-created with students during Opening B)
  • Whiteboards (or sheet protectors with white cardboard inside; one per student or for partners)
  • Whiteboard markers (one per student)
  • Whiteboard erasers (or tissues, socks, etc.; one per student)
  • Movable Letters (magnetic letters, Letter Cards in a pocket chart, or other letters that can be displayed and moved; one each for teacher modeling: letters in an, van, pans, man, path; from Lesson 6)
