TLW recognize commas.
TLW read sentences with fluency.
Before students begin reading pages 1-3
Ask students to turn to page 14 in this Reader and predict why the dog is not happy. Write down comments made by the students. After reading pages 1-3, compare the comments with the story.
Page 1- The teacher will introduce the new sight words. The Tricky Word saw is introduced in this Reader. Saw is a Tricky Word because the students will confuse it with the word was. Show students how to use their thumbs to cover up the second syllable in the word happy. Students should be able too independently sound out the first syllable hap. When students meet new unknown sight words, they should act like they are detectives looking for word clues. The teacher should demonstrate how to use the letter sounds to “solve the mystery” of the unknown word.
For fluency practice use a tape recorder and record students reading orally. Students will then practice reading the text they recorded. After practicing, students will record the same text again. Play the before and after tapes for the students. They will enjoy hearing how much they have improved with practice.

The teacher says “Short u tried to open his door, but the door would not open. He pulled and pulled on his door, but the door would not open. Finally, he pulled so hard the door came open and the door handle hit him in the stomach. When the door handle hit him, he said /u/.”
The teacher writes the word big on the board and then erases the i in big and writes in the letter u. Using onset and rime, the students practice sounding out the word bug.
The teacher will then play the Race Car Game. Students should be able to sound out any word from the Shorta Card Deck 3, the Short i Card Deck 7 and the Short u Card Deck 11.
**Important Note**
If students can easily sound out words using Short i, Short a, or Short u,skip this lesson and go to Lesson 19.

During small group time, the teacher randomly selects three words with Short i and four words with Short a or Short u and then mixes up these seven words. The students take turns sounding out the words. As each student takes a turn, the teacher selects seven different words. When students can sound blend five out of the seven words, they are ready to move to Ten Minute Phonics Lesson 19.
P. 7- Review and practice.
Students should practice sounding out words with either the Toolbox Card Decks or words on pages 6 and 7.
The teacher may want to play the Race Car Game.

If students can easily sound out words with Short a, Short i, or Short u, move on to Ten Minute Phonics Lesson 19.
