Learning Coach Notes:

Lesson # Lesson Title Notes
1 22.1 - ey and y
  • In this lesson, your student will be working on writing supporting sentences for an opinion paragraph. S/he will need to have picked an opinion topic, web planned, and written a topic sentence for this paragraph before writing the supporting sentences. As your student begins to write, be sure to encourage him/her to do his/her best on sounding out words to spell on his/her own. You can call it "Ear Spelling." Ask your student to spell what s/he hears. Encourage him/her to take chances and spell words how they sound. It is developmentally appropriate and important for your student to sound out words on his/her own and not always spell words correctly.
  • As your student reads “Study Daisy, Study!” ask them the following questions: Who is Daisy? What does Daisy have to do? What does Daisy want to do? Who are Daisy's friends? What happens at the end of the story?
2 22.2- ey and y
  • There will be no formal handwriting worksheets assigned during this semester. However, if you believe your student still needs more practice with handwriting, please visit the Teacher Guide for handwriting resources to implement on your own.
  • Your student will be going on a sight word hunt. S/he will need to find as many of the sight words as s/he can in magazines or newspapers. When s/he finds one of the sight words, sh/he will highlight it with a marker.
  • Your student will also be doing a worksheet for his/her sight words. Stickers may be used or you can simply draw starts for your student.
  • Use the sight word flashcards daily with your student. Mix them up, show them the words and ask them to read the sight word. Next do not show them the word but say the word and ask them to spell the word.

  • When reading "Study Daisy, Study!" in this lesson have your student write the ey and y words that make the long e sound that are in the story in their Language Arts notebook.
