Word Study
In 1-305, we use the Fundations program to teach word study.
- We are currently working on glued sounds.
- Students are also writing sentences using their sight words and what they have learned about digraphs.

CVC Words: Three letter words that are made of a consonant-vowel-consonant.

Tapping: Remember to make the sound of each letter as you tap your fingers. Then, put the sounds together!

Practice: Tap the sounds of the word. Then, say the whole word.
