(a) Initial and final syllables taught as phonograms.
(b) Word Drill.
3. Later Work.
INITIAL AND FINAL SYLLABLES.
(Time, about twenty weeks.)
Directions. 1. In the third half-year initial and final syllables are taught as phonograms. This enables the child to read words requiring an understanding of syllabication.
2. The familiar consonant and vowel sounds previously learned are constantly reviewed in the word lists given for phonic drill. These are based largely upon the words used in the Primer, the First Reader, and the Second Reader. The list may be increased by using, in connection with familiar words, the prefixes and suffixes given in the following lessons.
3. New sight words which the child may meet in any reader should be told him.
