You know when your initial sound fluency instruction works when....

...when one of your students takes a weekend trip and sounds out graffiti in the ladies room in a rest stop. One of my students (age 5) sounded out the following graffiti "This bathroom looks like sh**."

I use Dr. Jean CD's to do initial sound fluency practice. We sing who let the letters out every couple of days and we play "Your Outta here" quite a bit. Once kids start sounding things out.. forget it..reading comes fast. LOL
