Advance Preparation<br />
On the last page of this lesson we have provided a rough draft from Mr. Mowse.<br />
Mr. Mowse likes to write but he is very shy. Included in the draft are a variety<br />
of misspellings and omitted capital letters, words, and punctuation. Copy onto<br />
chart paper (or whatever display format you are using), skipping every other line,<br />
to leave room for editing. You may wish to write the sentences using a different<br />
color for each sentence. This will make it easier to refer to specific parts of the<br />
story. The ideal draft will be one that is good but still in need of improvement in<br />
one or more of the areas on the editing checklist (Worksheet 8.1). You will also<br />
need a display copy of the writing process chart, the editing checklist (either on<br />
chart paper or transparency), and blank chart paper.<br />

Review of Basic Code Spellings and Spelling Alternatives<br />
• You may wish to tab the following page before beginning this lesson.<br />
Vowel Code Flip Book<br />
1. ‘oi’ > /oi/ (oil) Vowel Code Flip Book on page 15<br />
2. ‘oy’ > /oi/ (toy) Vowel Code Flip Book on page 15<br />
See Letter-Sound<br />
Correspondences in the<br />
Pausing Point for students<br />
needing additional help with<br />
/oi/.<br />
Additional practice may be<br />
found in the <strong>Unit</strong> 2 section<br />
of the Assessment and<br />
Remediation <strong>Guide</strong>.<br />
• Write the spelling ‘oi’ on the board and ask students, “If you saw this spelling<br />
in a word, what sound would you say?” (Students should respond with the<br />
sound /oi/.)<br />
• Once students have provided the sound, ask them for the letters that spell<br />
this sound.<br />
• Summarize the information: “When you see the letters ‘o’ and ‘i’ side by side,<br />
recognize these letters are working together as a digraph, or letter team, and<br />
you say the sound /oi/.”<br />
