Cycle 57

The symbols beneath sounds get smaller in this task.  They will soon disappear altogether.

The final part of this task introduces reading words sub-vocally when the words have small, unpronounced characters.

If a student struggles, ask the student to read the word slowly out loud so that you can diagnose the problem.

This is the first task in which students follow along with their finger during the instructor’s first fluent reading of the passage.  (Until now, they had been following along with their fingers during the instructor’s second reading of the passage.)

Starting with the new passage in this task, story text has two spaces between words instead of three.
