During Monday's cold reading, I paid special attention to the letter s.
Mistakes involving this letter included adding it to the ends of words 8 times and leaving it off the ends of words 30 times. Reading I students were more likely to make this mistake than Reading II students. Be sure to monitor how you are saying all of your words as you read this week!

Remember that these word lists are a mix of words from all reading levels- not everyone has the same difficulty of stories. Some of these may be easy for you; some of them may be more difficult. As long as you are reading every day and challenging yourself to try new words, you will keep making improvements.
