The Basic Code Lesson
The purpose of this lesson type is to teach students to hear a particular sound, and to write a picture of that sound using the most common (or least ambiguous) spelling for the sound.

The Basic Code Lesson
A basic code lesson is dedicated to a single sound and will usually contain the following elements:

Not a Smorgasbord
• The Basic Code Lesson is not meant to be done in bits and pieces, or selectively.
• It has a sequence, with one part leaning on the previous part.
• It will be less effective if subdivided.• Same is true of other lessons.• Please try to do all the exercises, but with
fewer examples if necessary.

Warm UpKey Instructional
Techniques• This is an oral task, no
letters.
• There are very specific gestures used for blending 3, 4, 5 syllable words. These should be taught explicitly.
• Very specific examples are used.

Introducing the Sound
Key Instructional Techniques
• This is an oral task, no letters.
• A focus on articulation is explicitly taught as a technique to support learning of the sound.

Introducing the SpellingKey Instructional
Techniques• What are the key ways
the teacher interacts with the materials (organization, techniques, non verbal modeling)?
• What are the key ways the teacher interacts with the students to support learning?

Your Turn• Examine the Basic Code
checklist• Watch the Basic Code dem
onstration Note specific behaviors that
are evidence of the checklist items
Consider as a table: Are there additional behaviors that are done that you feel are ‘critical’ to a high quality/high fidelity lesson? What are these?

The Tricky Word Lesson
The purpose of this lesson type is to introduce a word that is needed for instruction but contains spellings that have not yet been taught.

Sight Words
• Sight word is an ambiguous term; it can mean two things:
1. A high frequency word students need to see a lot and learn to recognize speedily.
2. A word that does not “play by the rules”—that is not spelled or pronounced as you would expect.

Which Words Receive Special Attention in
CKLA?• Regular high frequency words (e.g., in, on, this, at) do not require special treatment; students can read these words via blending.
• High frequency words that also qualify as tricky words (e.g., I, a, of, one, was, two) do need special attention.

Note on Tricky Words
• The trickiness of a word is relative to which spellings have been taught.
• The more spelling patterns the students know, the fewer words need to be described as tricky.

Note on Tricky Words
• Some words are taught initially as tricky words but, later on, students learn they are part of a spelling pattern. Examples: he, she, we, be, me; no & so; my & by.
• Other tricky words are never absorbed into the spelling patterns. Examples: one, of, two, could.

Teaching Tricky Words
• Most words are not 100% tricky; they have tricky parts.
• Strategy: instead of teaching the whole word as something tricky that needs to be memorized as a whole, draw attention to regular parts and tricky parts within the word. (Break it down!)

The Tricky Spelling Lesson
The purpose of a Tricky Spelling Lesson is to explicitly call students’ attention to a spelling that can be pronounced and read more than one way.

Tricky Spellings
• For example, ‘a’ can be pronounced as: /a/ (cat), /ae/ (paper), /o/ (father), or /ə/ (about).
• Tricky spellings present a challenge when students are asked to read unfamiliar words since it is possible to sound out and pronounce a tricky spelling multiple ways.

The Tricky Spelling Lesson • The teacher calls explicit attention to many
examples of words in which the same spelling is pronounced different ways.
• Students are taught to try each pronunciation that they have learned for a spelling until they recognize a particular pronunciation as a familiar word that makes sense in the context.
• Some tricky spellings are taught in Grade 1, with many more taught in Grade 2.
