Word Blending Each week, we learn new word blending strategies to help us become better readers. These strategies can be adding work endings (-ing, -ed), learning about the "H Brothers" (wh, sh, ch, th, ph), learning consonant blends (seeing two letters and hearing two sounds - st, cl, br), and learning vowel strategies.Below are lists of word blending for each story that we read. We go over these lists each week. Practicing them at home will help your child succeed in reading. The lists have many decodable words (words that can be decoded by blending) and high-frequency words (words that need to be "automatic" because most cannot be blended).UNIT ONE Sam Came BackPig in a WigThe Big Blue OxA Fox and a KitGet the Egg!Animal ParkUNIT TWO A Big Fish for MaxThe Farmer in the HatWho Works Here?The Big CircleLife in the ForestHoney BeesUNIT THREE An Egg is an EggRuby in Her Own TimeJan's New HomeFrog and Toad TogetherI'm a CaterpillarWhere Are My Animal Friends?UNIT FOUR Mama's Birthday PresentThe DotMister Bones: Dinosaur HunterThe Lady in the MoonPeter's ChairHenry and MudgeUNIT FIVE Tippy Toe, Chick Go!Mole and Baby BirdDot and JabberSimple MachinesAlexander Graham BellBen Franklin |
