Cycle 183

183.2 Patterns

Purpose and Procedure

This task continues to teach students to read words that are formed by adding an -er, -ed, -s, or -est ending to base words that end in -y.

In this cycle, students read a base word and point to the letter (y) that will change when the ending is added. After seeing the word change, students read the final word.

183.5 Word Parts

Purpose and Procedure
