I am using the inquiry method this year to help my 2nd
grade LD students learn some of the phonics and language
rules. I am working on the vowel rules for CVC and 4 letter
words with the ending of VCV (E AT THE END OF WORDS
SPECIFICALLY). cAN anyone help? I am wondering exactly how
to start? Do I start with 3 and 4 letter words like cut and
cute. And give several of these examples or with a list of
3 letter words (cvc)AND a list of 4 or 5 letter words
ending with e(VCV)? Or just a list of 3 letter words and
let them discover the rule for most CVC words and then do
a list of 4-5 letter with the VCV rule? Please Help
