4.5 Flip Flops

Description

Your scholars have been skillfully reading words that have “two vowels together where the first one says its name” (FFL 3.3) for quite some time now. They’ve likely found some words where that “rule” didn’t work. It’s now time to address those words. Your students are already flexible with their decoding. They often “flip” to second sound letters can represent. In these lessons, you’ll be “flipping” to alternate sounds represented by the letters e-a, i-e, and e-i(g-h). It’s fun to flip from the most common sound/flop to the less common sound to figure out what words say. We don’t guess, but we are flexible within the parameters of what we know about our code-based language.
