AC9EFLY10 · words in sentences and sounds in spoken words

Learning focus: I can hear words in a sentence and blend, segment and change sounds in one-syllable words.

Model it: Break and blend: I like cats → 3 words m-a-t → mat mat without /m/ → at

Ask the learner: What is the main idea of words in sentences and sounds in spoken words?

Look for: The learner can I can hear words in a sentence and blend, segment and change sounds in one-syllable words in a fresh example and explain the evidence or reasoning without copying the model.

If they are stuck: If the learner guesses or repeats a rule without evidence, return to the concrete or visual model and ask them to explain what each part shows.
