Introduce Variant Vowel /o—o/
Materials: Variant vowel /o—o/ picture cards
• Show students the variant vowel /oo —/ picture card for boot. Ask them to name the picture
and tell you the sound they hear in the middle of the word. Point to the letters oo on the
card and tell students that the letters o and o together stand for the vowel sound they
hear in the word boot.
• Explain that the oo letter combination is one of the letter combinations that stand for
—/ letter combinations
group of sounds called variant vowels. The other variant vowel /oo
with the same vowel sound as boot are ew and ue. Cite examples of words that use these
—/ sound (due, food, snoop, threw). Point out that the variant vowel
spellings to make the /oo
sound can be in the middle or at the end of a word.
• Say the words boot and boat aloud. Ask students which word contains the same vowel
sound as food. Make sure students can differentiate between the two vowel sounds.
• Show students the variant vowel /oo —/ picture cards one by one. Have them name each
picture, point to the letters that stand for the variant vowel sound, and say the variant
vowel sound.

LESSON 59 Variant Vowel /o—o/ (hoop, blue, new) continued
• Write the word Sue on the board. Point out the letters that stand for the variant vowel
sound and ask students to blend the u and e together to make the same vowel sound
as food. Next, run your finger under the letters as you blend the two sounds in Sue: S/ue.
Point out that even though there are three letters, there are two sounds blended together
to form the word. Then have students blend the word aloud with you as you run your
finger under the letters. Ask a student to explain why Sue begins with a capital letter.
• Repeat the blending activity with the words new, grew, and groom. Take one word at
—/ sound. When
a time, pointing out the letter combinations of the variant vowel /oo
students have blended the words, ask volunteers to come up and circle the variant
vowel letter combination in the words. Have a student point to each variant vowel letter
combination as the rest of the group says the sound.
• If students need more work with blending words, have them use the letter/vowel
workmat, one of each variant vowel /oo—/ card, and the letter cards. Have students line up
the card for each sound in the word under the boxes on their workmat. Group the words
according to each variant vowel letter combination so that students know which variant
—/ card to use for each word. Model how to push up the variant vowel /oo
vowel /oo —/ card
into the box on the workmat and indicate the sound the variant vowel letter combination
makes. Have students push up and sound out the remaining letters of each word in order
on their workmat.

—/ words and
• For students who seem to have a grasp of decoding variant vowel /oo
previously taught decodable and high-frequency words, provide extra practice with
the text by allowing them to independently read:
the practice sheet
the decodable book Snoop the Crime Dog
• Some students may benefit from having the decodable book introduced and pre-taught
before they read the book. Strategies might include introducing and practicing
high-frequency words used in the book, teaching special word structures, and doing
a book walk.
NOTE: See the “Elements Used in This Book” section, found at the start of the
decodable book, for a list of words and skills covered in the book. Pre-teach these
elements as necessary.
• Show students the cover of the book. Have them read the title with you as you run your
finger under each word. Ask students what they see in the picture and what they think
the story might be about. Ask a student to point to the letters that stand for the variant
vowel sound in the word Snoop.
• Give students a copy of the book. Have them preview the pictures and predict the story.
When they get to page 13, ask them what the dog is looking for.
• Have students read the book. You may want them to whisper read so you can monitor
their progress. When they have finished reading, take time to discuss the book and check
for understanding. Ask students how Snoop solved the crime.
