lesson image


Instructions: The instructor reads an excerpt from Treadwell Reader's story, 'The Three Little Pigs.' The instructor pronounces the dashed words phonetically and asks children to call out the words.

The second l-i-tt-le pig met a man with some s-t-i-ck-s.

He said, "Please give me some sticks, I want to build a house."

The man gave the little pig some s-t-i-ck-s, and he built a house.

Then the o-l-d wolf came along.

He knocked at the door and said, "Little pig, little pig, let me come in."

The little pig said, "No, no, by the hair of my chinny, ch-i-n, chin. I won't let you in."

The wolf said, "Then I'll h-u-ff and I'll puff, and I'll blow your house in.

So he huffed and he puffed, and he blew the house in.

Then he ate up the l-i-tt-le pig.
