TIPS
? Refer to the Appendix for a list of CVC words.
? When introducing blending, choose words whose initial consonant sound is continuous
(e.g., /s/, /m/, /l/). These sounds are easier to blend into the vowel than stop consonant
sounds (e.g., /t/, /b/).
DAILY REVIEW
SHORT VOWEL SOUNDS
Teacher: Who can tell me the different vowels that are in the alphabet?
[Students answer.]
Teacher: That's correct: a, e, i, o, and u are the five vowels.
[Write the vowels on the board.]
Teacher: What is the short sound for the letter e?
[Students answer.]
Teacher: That's right. The sound is /e/, as in egg. What is the short vowel sound for i?
[Students answer.]
Teacher: Yes, /i/, as in igloo. Which vowel makes the short sound /a/?
[Students answer.]
Teacher: Correct, the letter a says /a/. Tell me a word that begins with the sound /a/.
[Students answer.]
Teacher: Yes, apple, ant, and Adam all begin with the sound /a/. What vowel makes the
sound you hear at the beginning of the word up?
[Students answer.]

Teacher: Right, the letter u. So, what is the short sound for u?
[Students answer.]
Teacher: Yes, it is /u/.
OPENING
Teacher: Today we will learn to read words with three letters and three sounds. Each of
these words has a syllable that begins with a consonant, has a vowel in the middle,
and ends with a consonant. These syllables are called consonant-vowel-consonant,
or CVC, syllables. The vowels in CVC syllables make their short vowel sounds. I will
show you how to blend consonant sounds and vowel sounds to make words.
In this lesson, you will also learn about closed syllables. CVC syllables are closed.
Words are made of syllables, so knowing about closed syllables and knowing how
to read CVC words will help you read more words.
MODEL AND TEACH: ACTIVITY 1
BLENDING SOUNDS
DECODING
Place the letters m, a, and t in a pocket chart, leaving some space between the letters. Point to
the letters and model blending the sounds by saying, for example, "/m/, /ma/, /mat/" to form the
word mat. Repeat the sequence with other words, gradually reducing your modeling and giving
students greater independence for the process. Use all the vowels and a variety of consonants.
Teacher: Here are some examples of CVC words with the /a/ sound. We will stretch and
blend each of the words so we can hear the different sounds.
[Point to m and extend the sound /mmm/. Point to a and extend the sound
/aaa/. Then, slide your finger under each letter as you blend the sounds.]
Teacher: /mmm/ /aaa/. Now you try it. Blend the sounds as I slide my finger under the
letters.
Students: /mmm/ /aaa/
