Step One
Begin with list of words that are two grades below the students academic grade level.
We begin with the primer grade list of words.
Method - show student one word at a time.
The student uses a strategy to help them read the words.The student blends letters together.Ex. – b + low, says the word low and makes sound for b.
Pronounces the word “many” as man + e. Sees the “y” as a long e.Slide5
Step Two
Read words from the first grade list.
Student was able to read eighteen out of the twenty words.
Student received assistance in reading all the words.
Student could not pronounce “drank” and “enough”.Student covered the letters in the word drank to break down the word.The “ou” and the “
gh
” in enough were hard for the student. Student didn’t understand why the word wasn’t spelled with an “f”.Slide6
Step Three
Read words from the second grade list.
The student was not able to read most of the words.
Without assistance the student was able to read nine out of the twenty-five words.
