Cycle Word List
In this cycle, students are introduced to the “oo” pattern as well as two spelling patterns that both produce the long e sound (”-y” at the end of a two-syllable word and the vowel team “ee”). They continue to practice decoding two-syllable words using combinations of known syllable types.
