RGR Unit 3 Lesson 4 HD Word

Open Ended

Warm Welcome! Yesterday, we were learning about trigraphs.

Can you think of words with a trigraph in them? Please type in your answer.

What words did you think of?

Lesson Objective

In this lesson, we will learn about another feature of some words: 3- sound blend. We will learn the difference between trigraphs and 3-sound blends. The words we are reading today are all closed syllable with short vowel sounds.

Reading Reminder!

Remember that when we understand phonemes, we can read more accurately. Some letters, especially the vowels, can spell more than one phoneme.

Let's brainstorm!

What do you think a 3-sound blend could mean?
