Teacher says the word (or phoneme) a. May use the word in a sentence and repeat the word before the student repeats and spells theword 2. Student repeats the word (or phoneme) 3. Student segments thesound(s) (tapping each phoneme of the word) 4. Student spells the word (or phoneme) aloud by naming each letter (sound to symbol) 5. Student writes the word (or phoneme) naming each letter as he/she forms the letter pattern(s) 6.

Writing connection: Phrase and sentence dictation from a decodable text they are reading. The student orally repeats the phrase and/or sentence, writes the words and then proofreads their work.
