Cycle 104
104.1 Letter Combinations
Purpose and Procedure
This task requires students to read multisyllabic words containing ai and ay letter combinations. Students are not asked to identify the letter combination or its sound before reading the word.
104.4 Patterns -VCe
Purpose and Procedure
This is the first task in which students will read multisyllabic words (in a serif font) that are a mix of ‑VCe pattern words and non‑VCe pattern words.
104.6 Story Reading
Purpose and Procedure
The new passage contains the words note and pad as two separate words instead of a single compound word (notepad). This is strategic. Later in the curriculum, after you teach a certain type of -VCe derivative, the word will be rendered as notepad. By that time it will be less difficult for students to read it because they will have read note pad several times. This will help students by providing a gentler “on-ramp” to compound words containing internal -VCe patterns.
104.7 Word Parts
Purpose and Procedure
In this task, students read words with -s and -es endings that do not have their base words underlined.
