Lesson 21 - Chaining

About this lesson

To learn more about this lesson, read the Lesson 21 Overview found under the Additional Materials tab.

Daily Learning Targets

  • Opening A:
    • I can segment and blend CVC and CCVC words with the phonemes (sounds): /t/ /n/, /u/, /s/, /sh/. 
    • 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.
    • I can identify the sound that corresponds to “sh.”
  • Opening B:
    • I can write the graphemes (letters) that match the phonemes (sounds): “p,” “n,” “u,” “s,” “sh,” “t”.
    • 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.
    • I can identify the sound that corresponds to “sh.”
  • Work Time:
    • I can read and spell VC, CVC , and CCVC words with the phonemes (sounds): /i/, /qu/, /s/, /t/, /f/, /k/ (as “c”), /r/.
    • I can decode regularly spelled one-syllable words by mapping graphemes and phonemes.
    • I can use what I know about common spelling patterns to correctly spell words with those common patterns.

In advance
