Mrs. Bader’s Literacy Block Phonic Based ReadersYour child has four assignments for literacy each day: Word Warm-up, Read, Reading Response, Write. You can use the paper provided in the pack you plan to pick up, a notebook you have at home, or the Google Classroom Reading and Writing Check-in document that has been set up.

Word Warm-Up: For each passage provided there is a warm-up activity led by the parent or other grownup helping. Read the directions aloud and have your child respond verbally.

Read: 20 minutes or more. (Setting a timer helps)I have provided 20 reading passages with focused letter patterns.

For each passage have your child underline the words with the focused letter pattern, then read the story out loud at least 3 times so that they can read it smoothly without hesitation or mistakes. (They are used to this routine in class.)

Once they are done, they can do the same for any other passage in the pack until the 20 minutes are up.

Reading Response: After reading the story, the students need to answer the questions in complete sentences. They then need to check using the writing rules checklist at the bottom of the page.

Write: 15 minutes or moreWrite the date and set the timer for 15 minutes (or more if you want the challenge

). 😊★ You can record your day

(This can be a family discussion that you record):What did you do? What are you grateful for? How did you do on yesterday’s goal? What is your goal for tomorrow?

OR★ Pick a writing idea from the back.

The Hike

Spike and Jane took a hike to a cave. They passed a huge lake on the hike. On the hike, Spike and Jane hiked up a huge slope. At the top of the slope was the cave. Spike and Jane went in the cave. In the back of the cave was a throne. Spike sat on the throne and spoke, “I am king!” Jane did the same and spoke, “I want to be queen!” Jane and Spike played king and queen in the cave for a long time.

When they got sick of the king and queen game they left the cave to hike home. Spike and Jane looked down the hill they hiked up. The slope looked like a huge slide. Jane and Spike slid down the slope. They went so fast that they landed in the lake! Splash!

What makes the vowels long? Silent eWhat makes the /i/ in kite? I consonant eWhat makes the /o/ on slope? O consonant eWhat makes the /a/ in Jane? A consonant eLet’s try segmenting some sounds. I’ll say broke, then I’ll break it down into sounds like this /b/ /r/ /ō/ /k/ (hold up a finger as you say each sound.) I hear 4 sounds but the word has 5 letters. That’s because of the silent e. Now you try breaking down some words and counting out the sounds you hear. Try the following words and discuss the number of sounds compared to the number of letters: slide, slope, trade, shine, hugeNow look at the words below and point to the words that have a vowel consonant e and say the sound it makes.

Luke and Duke’s Trade

In June, Luke rode his bike down the slope to the lake. He was to meet his pal, Duke. They planned to trade bikes. As he rode, his bike spoke broke! Oh no! The bike began to slide down the slope. He hoped he would not crash. Duke may not want to trade! Just then, his mom drove by and

stopped. Mom helped Luke slide the bike in the truck. Mom took him to a huge bike shop to get a new spoke. The bike would soon be the same. Luke rode his bike back to the lake to trade with his pal Duke. Luke gave Duke his blue bike. Duke gave Luke his red bike. Luke loved the shine of the red bike. It was a good trade. Luke and Duke were both glad!
