Find a word, then check the whole sentence · a small home offer

Try the word. Check the sentence. Ask for help if the pattern is new.

Before you begin

The complete matched C source travels with this offer; an adult can read it. It is ordinary taught material, not an unseen case.

First adult words

1. Use one teacher-selected known word in a silly sentence. An adult can supply a new word; the goal is a useful meaning check, not drilling an untaught list.

2. Read the matched fictional source together. Ask which reader or character the child wants to help. Use the child direction: ‘Try the word. Check the sentence. Ask for help if the pattern is new.’

3. Offer scrap paper, objects, pointing, speech/sign or exact dictation. Stop after one useful small piece; no class workbook or internet is required.

Later adult words

1. Invite the child to show one part and explain it using the source. If useful, ask the supplied reader question or reread the relevant source detail.

2. Record the actual sound-letter/word-part strategy, self-correction and conditions. Keep high-frequency/homophone spelling, oral reading and listening comprehension separate.

3. If you supply a word, answer, model or pen work, say so in a note. Keep the piece private unless you and the child choose a permitted reader. This offer is not an independent assessment by itself.

Optional extra

Return to the second matched ordinary source C16 for the same day's purpose, introducing its full source first. Do not quietly switch to a different day or held case.

Time

5–15 minutes suggested, unpiloted; stop, shorten or resume.
