## 49.1 New Sound

{% embed url="<https://youtu.be/fJr-imBfW_8>" %}

#### Purpose and Procedure

In this task, students will learn the sound /v/ as in *leave*.

## 49.3 The Slow-Fast Game

#### Purpose and Procedure

This task returns to saying words slowly and fast that begin with triple-consonant blends. This time, however, beginning with the second word *scram*, you will not tell students the words before saying them slowly, and you will not say them slowly with the students before students try on their own.&#x20;

## 49.4 Word Reading

#### Purpose and Procedure

The final part of this task introduces reading words with initial consonant blends when there are no symbols beneath the words.

## 49.5 Story Reading

#### Purpose and Procedure

This task introduces students to following along with their finger as you read aloud.

When you do the fluent model reading, read the passage with expression but slowly enough to pronounce all of the sounds clearly.&#x20;

#### Correcting the Student

<mark style="color:purple;">❖</mark>  If the student’s finger gets out of sync with your reading, restart that sentence, and help the student find the right place to touch.
