4. Phonics Lesson Objectives:
Use word parts to decode words with syllable pattern C+le.
Review syllable patterns V/CV, VC/V.
Blend and read words that contain the syllable pattern C+le and VCV words.
Apply decoding strategies: blend longer words.

5. Phonics Lesson You have already learned some common syllable patterns.
bottle
Say bottle aloud; then repeat it slowly, with a brief pause between syllables: bot/tle.
Between which two letters do we divide the word?

6. Phonics Lesson
When I read the word candle, the first thing I notice is a word part I have seen in many words: le. I see two vowels, and I will probably hear two syllables. The first syllable is can, and the last syllable is dle. When a word ends in le, the consonant that comes before le must be part of the last syllable.
Listen as I blend candle. Now, blend it with me.

7. Decode Longer Words Read these words: bundle table cuddle struggle
whistle cradle able simple

8. Read the Words in Context
Read these sentences and identify the words with the syllable pattern C+le. Where should the words be divided into syllables?

We walked around the big puddle in the middle of the sidewalk.

10. Vocabulary Strategy Lesson
What do you do when you come across a word you don’t know?
Sometimes you can figure out what the word means by looking for context clues.
Context clues are the words and sentences around the word. They can help you figure out the meaning of the word.

11. Vocabulary Strategy Lesson
Read the words and sentences around the word you don’t know. Sometimes the author tells you what the word means.
If not, use the words and sentences to predict a meaning for the word.
Try that meaning in the sentence. Does it make sense?
As you read “A Gardening Adventure,” use context clues to help you understand the meanings of the vocabulary words.

The word shivered is used on p. 177 to describe what Cecilia did as she dug holes.
