This task requires students to read multisyllabic words containing ee and ea letter combinations. Students are not asked to identify the letter combination or its sound before reading the word.
This task introduces the capital letters that, along with C and O from the previous cycle, look the most like their lowercase versions.
This is the beginning of a series of tasks that will help students read the -ed suffix in a serif font regardless of whether it makes the /d/ sound (after a voiced phoneme), the /t/ sound (after an unvoiced phoneme), or the /ĕd/ sound (after a /t/ or /d/).
