1. Students take out notes "Pledge of Allegiance" Read/Recite with teacher. Focus on the correct phrasing. Discuss any words unknown: pledge (promise) liberty (freedom), justice (fairness; a court of law) etc. Last write the pledge on the board and leave out some words and have students copy on to paper and fill in the blanks. (See sample above.) Vicki will have them come up to board and fill in blanks for others to copy. 2. Do pages F5-F9 with students to read and write high frequency words and learn the short /a/ sound 3. If you feel students are ready...give phonics assessment. Use scantrons and test photocopies. If not have students practice group work and partner reading. Partners alternate turns reading pages F6-F9.
