oo Picture Code Cards
lose or loose? To get lose and loose right, tell children to remember: ‘You lose one twin in lose.’ For remembering the oo in loose, link it with tooth in the phrase ‘loose tooth’.
• Show the plain side. When we see these two in our words this week we’ll say, / /. Push the card forward several times as the children repeat the sound “/ /, / /…” • Share the story and illustration in Far Beyond ABC (also see Story Phonics software) that features the Boot Twins sound. Children listen for his sound and look for pictured items that include / /. • Build the word boot with plain letters. When we see two vowels together like these two o’s, we know it is a Vowel Team Syllable. Point to the Vowel Team panel on the Six Syllable Types Poster. And we know that it is going to be the Boot and Foot Twins. In lots of this week’s words, the first brother is talking, so what do we hear? “/ /.” Turn the oo to the picture side and have children finger tap the word. • Build the words following the steps on the Daily Lesson Guide Cards (TGCD) and on pages 21–22 and 281. When you come to the words with these PCCs, ch/c/, o/ /, and wh/h/, share their stories (see the back of the PCCs) and practice their sounds: o/ / – Sometimes when the Boot Twin says / /, his brother hides behind him so we only see one letter o. He hides just for fun in some words, but when Walter Walrus is around in words like who, whom and whose, he hides because he is afraid of Walter Walrus! Tell children these words are still considered Vowel Team Syllables even though one team member is hiding. ch/c/ – Sometimes the wind in Letterland blows Harry Hat Man’s hat off. Then it can’t tickle Clever Cat’s nose so she can go back to making her usual /k/ sound. Meanwhile Harry is too surprised to speak. wh/h/ – When these two are together, usually Walter splashes off Harry’s hat, but sometimes Harry gets back at Walter by splashing him with a pail of water and crying out, Who do you think you are! Then it’s Walter who is too startled to speak!
‘Live Reading’ PCCs: b, l, m, p, r, s, s/z/, t, oo/ /, ch, er, sh, ve APCCs: e/–/, o/ /, wh/h/ Words: choose, broom, rooster, whose, prove, move • Distribute PCCs. Let two children be the Boot and Foot Twins, the first one holding a pair of boots or shoes and the PCC, the second looking angrily at his brother. When two o’s are needed, they stand side by side and show the oo PCC. When just one o is needed, one child shows the o/ / PCC and the other child hides behind. • Line children with PCCs up to form the words, and have the rest of the class finger tap them. Build rooster with them. Then move children to make a space between the syllables (roos-ter). • Read the new Word Cards in columns on the pocket chart with the class using the Tractors, Trains, Planes and Helicopters activity.
