Following the introduction of each character, sound, and gesture (once 2 characters have been introduced), a guided drawing and labeling lesson from The Draw To Read And Write Book is included to teach and reinforce blending, segmentation, letter and letter pattern recognition, and word recognition through the labeling of the students’ pictures. Each drawing and labeling lesson includes a cut-and-paste sentence that introduces high-frequency words in context with decodable words from the drawing activities. The students then use the labels from the drawing lessons to rewrite selected pattern songs from The Book Of Pattern Reading, Writing, And Singing Activities.
