# Cycle 119

## 119.1 Letter Combinations

#### Purpose and Procedure

This task requires students to read simple words containing the *ir* or *ur* letter combination after they identify the letter combination and its sound.

## 119.4 Patterns

#### Purpose and Procedure

In this task, students read words with the *-dge* letter combination making the sound /j/.

## 119.7 Word Parts

#### Purpose and Procedure

This task introduces students to the *be-* beginning*.*

It is a continuation of the series introducing students to words with beginnings that are unstressed first syllables in which the letter *e* can make the schwa sound (/ə/).

Because it is especially important that students hear the schwa sound in these words before repeating them, you will use the sound buttons in this task rather than reading the words yourself.
