Considerations & Reminders

  • Students may need reminders about silent letters and may decode the sounds separately when reading words with silent letters (e.g., students might say /k/, /n/, /ō/ instead of pronouncing the word “know” as /n/, /ō/, /nō/).
  • Referring to sound/spelling cards or anchor charts may help students look for and identify silent consonants in words.
