Teach Ss an action to accompany each word, such as putting hand to ear for listen, opening a “book” with hands and moving head back and forth for read, etc. Review each initial sound of these words (r for write is okay for right now)

• Activity Break: Movement song :We’re Following the Leader (use only the first part if desired) Purpose: introducing the word, but not being assessed today.

• Assess learning with rest of PPT. (Rehearse beforehand) Have students hold up 1, 2, 3, 4 fingers to select correct answer (note children who get more than 2 answers wrong, adjust followup lesson accordingly), then name or describe final objects.
