Essential Questions/Knowledge:
Why is it important for children to be able to decode unfamiliar words?
Why do we need to know the letters and sounds of the alphabet?
Why is it important to write letters correctly?

By now, students are picking up speed as they decode words. The self-sufficiency that a controlled
vocabulary program instills in beginning readers is perhaps it's greatest single emotional effect.
Students will begin to learn some memory words. These are words that students must memorize
because they cant blend or decode them yet.
