7Lesson 1
WritingDisplay the words cap, tag, gas, and Pam. Have students number 1–4 on lined paper. Tell them to choose and write the word that matches each clue.1. You wear this on your head. (cap)2. This is a name. (Pam)3. This is a game where you might say, “You’re it!” (tag)
4. A car needs this to run. (gas)
reading in COnteXtread Tell students that they are now going to use what they know about short a words to read a story. Invite students to read Mac and Tab independently or with a partner. If needed, support students by identifying and reviewing sight words from the storybook. Help them identify and blend sounds as they read.
respond Engage students in a discussion about Mac and Tab with these questions:1. What is a pal? (a friend)2. In the beginning of the story, how can you tell that Mac and Tab are good friends? (Guide
students to use text and picture clues on pages 2 and 4 to point out that Tab gives Mac a ride, and Mac takes a nap right on Tab’s back.)3. Who woke up from the nap first? (Mac)4. How do you know? (Mac ate some of the ham while Tab was still sleeping.)5. Why is Tab angry? (The ham was meant for
Tab, but Mac ate some of it.)6. How did the two friends work out this
problem? (Tab put on Mac’s cap and let Mac have the ham.)7. Were they both happy with this solution? How do you know? (They must have both decided this was fair because they are smiling pals at the end.)
8. How else could they have handled the problem in a fair way? (Answers will vary. Possibilities include: They could have shared the ham. They could have talked about it together before napping. Tab and Mac could have politely asked for a bite of ham or a turn wearing the cap.)
Have students turn to pages 2 and 3 in Thinking about Mac and Tab. Read the directions with them and invite them to complete the pages. If time permits, students may want to color the pictures on these pages. extend Help students extend the theme of friendship in Mac and Tab with the following activity: Gather materials such as markers, colored paper, yarn, or fabric. Invite students to make two “friends” out of these materials. Ask them to name their friends and discuss what each pair likes to do together. Relate this activity to the story by asking if any of the pairs are like Mac and Tab: Do they take naps? Do they like ham?
differentiating instruCtiOn Kinesthetic learners will benefit from using
•letter tiles to build words from the lesson. Have students build new words by replacing the beginning consonants in the familiar words tap, dad, and ham. Have them say each new word they form and write it on a piece of paper or a white board. Struggling readers may need further practice
•with short a before they begin the next skill, short i. See Lesson 4 for additional work with short a. These students may also benefit from extended direct instruction available in the Intervention Guide. English language learners may also •need further practice with short a since Spanish does not contain the short vowel sounds found in English. See Lesson 4 for additional work with short a.

Warm-uP
Play a game of Grab Bag as you review the sounds
of short a and the consonants. Put cards with the
consonant letters and several cards with a into a
paper bag. Invite students to take turns drawing a
card from the bag, naming the letter and making
its sound. Repeat until everyone has had a turn.
Phonemic aWareness
Tell students you are going to sound out some
words very slowly. Ask students to listen to the
sounds, repeat the sounds, and say the word. For
example: What word is /r/ / a / /g/? Response: /r/
/ a / /g/ is rag.
/m/ / a / /p/ (map) /k/ / a / /p/ (cap)
/b/ / a / /g/ (bag) /h/ / a / /d/ (had)
/f/ / a / /n/ (fan) /h/ / a / /m/ (ham)
Phonics
review short a Ask the class to tell you what
vowel sound they hear in the words mat, pan, and
jam. (short a) Remind them that in Parts 1 and 2
they learned and practiced a lot of short a words.
Tell them that they will continue to practice
these words.
Vocabulary
sight Words Review the sight words printed
on the inside back cover of Workbook 1: a, black,
blue, brown, green, in, is, no, on, orange, purple, red,

add them to the Word Wall, and/or have students
write them in their personal dictionaries.
comPleting student Pages 20–26
Read the directions with students. Together,
complete a sample item on each page. Then
have students complete the pages independently,
providing assistance as needed.
automaticity
Provide or have students create several flashcards
with short a words. Have them flip through
the cards as they read the words to a partner.
Encourage students to review the flashcards
multiple times as they work to increase their
accuracy and speed. Include cards from previous
lessons as review.
comPrehension
extending Word Knowledge Ask questions
or give directions such as the following to be sure
that students understand short a words used in
this lesson:
1. A sad person may cry. Pretend to be sad.
2. A sleepy person may take a nap. Pretend to
be sleepy.
3. The words Sam, Jan, Pat, Pam, Dan, and Nat are
all what? (names) Do you know anyone with
one of those names?
4. When would you want to have a map with you?

Lesson 31123
Write the following sentence from Fish Fun on the board. Ask a student to read it aloud, with help if
necessary. Have students take turns coming up to the board to code.
Repeat with other sentences from the story, inviting other students to code.
BLM 31B ✜ Read the directions aloud with students. Have students code phrases and sentences from left
to right. After coding, ask students to practice reading the words to themselves and/or a partner.
For more practice, use pages 3–8 of Workbook 4. Use page 6 to review compound words.
Step 4: Read the Storybook
Read Fish Fun with students, asking them to join you when they can. Stop to work on any hard words,
encouraging students to help you analyze words by coding them on the board. Have students reread the
story independently or in pairs.
Step 5: Check Comprehension
Discuss the sequence of the story. Then discuss the five bulleted questions with the class. Encourage
students to answer using complete sentences.
What was the sheep doing at the beach? (He was sitting in the sunshine.)•
Why do you think he wanted to be a fish? (He was hot and the water looked cool.)•
When the sheep stuck his nose in the water, who came to talk to him? (A fish came.)•
The sheep saw five things in the water. Can you name them? (He thought the clam was a rock, the •
catfish was a cat, the shrimp was a bug, the crab was a big bug, and the seaweed was grass.)
Who told him what these five things really were? (The fish told him.)•
BLM 31C ✜ Help students read the five comprehension questions. As they answer orally, write the
answers on the board: 1. The crab grabbed onto the sheep’s nose; 2. that it tasted bad; 3. The sheep saw a
sailboat he said was a ship; 4. The waves scared him and the water was deep; 5. “No, I am glad to eat real
grass and be a sheep.”
