Students who achieve this goal will be reading slightly above grade level and typically score in the top 25% on national reading tests (such as the Stanford Achievement Test – SAT) .  \nThe 340 words introduced in the 1st Grade List are arranged as follows:  \n1st nine weeks-70 words  \n2nd nine weeks-90 words  \n3rd nine weeks-90 words  \n4th nine weeks-90 words  \nTOTAL = 340 words  \nThe first nine weeks begins with a two week review of all consonant sounds which should have been memorized during Kindergarten. It is extremely important that all students have completely memorized the consonant sounds before beginning the vocabulary words. This insures students have the\"foundation skills\" necessary for efficient learning of the Grade 1 reading words.  \nThe words used in our Grade 1 Vocabulary List have been carefully selected as the high frequency words typically used in 1st Grade reading books and Grade 1 standardized tests. When you begin the support materials in our TampaRead’s Grade 1 Program (which parallel these vocabulary words), it is essential for your students to have mastered the consonant sounds for letters – b – c – d – f – g – h – j – k – l – m – n – p – q – r – s – t – v – w – x – y – z. We stress again that failure to memorize these sounds will result in students learning at a much slower rate.  \nThe vocabulary words are arranged from the \"most common\" in the beginning weeks to the \"lesser common\" words toward the end of the year. This provides you the most logical and efficient order for instruction throughout the year. To further increase memorization efficiency we have organized words into similar vowel sound and reading-rule categories. This strategy alone dramatically increases the rate in which a student learns new words by providing an “easy to remember” common sound or rule to use while decoding the words.  \nAfter working with hundreds of students over the past 15 years, we have confirmed that students who can read these 340 words by the end of their Grade 1 year will be reading at approximately a 2.0 Grade Level and typically score in the top 25% on First Grade standardized tests (i.e. S.A.T. ) . If you would like to view the vocabulary building worksheets and additional materials we’ve developed to assist in memorization of these Grade 1 reading words– please view our Grade 1 Reading Package at[http://www.tampareads.com/order/grade1/select1.htm](http://www.tampareads.com/order/grade1/select1.htm if you)[ if you](http://www.tampareads.com/order/grade1/select1.htm if you) are not currently a TampaReads/ReadingKey member.  \nHappy Reading….  \nRichard Pressinger (M. Ed. )  \nReading Specialist  \n[ReadingKey.com](ReadingKey.com)  \nImportant “Difficult” Vocabulary Words  \nThe last word in each daily list is what we call our “Word of the Day.” It has been placed in the “grayscale” background to make it “stand out” from the other phonics based reading words. The “Word of the Day” is far more difficult to learn than the other words in the column. This difficulty occurs because it is either visually similar to other words (i.e. went – want) or is not consistent with typical phonics rules (i.e. does-duz – what-wut) . The “Word of the Day” must be given much more practice to insure its memorization.  \nWeek 1 Grade 1 National Reading Vocabulary 1st Quarter  \n\n| MONDAY & TUESDAY\u003Cbr>HARD SOUNDS\u003Cbr>Consonant sounds heard at the beginning of the letter name (except “c” and “g.”)\u003Cbr>1.  says…\u003Cbr>2.  says… followed by-a – o-u\u003Cbr>3.  says…\u003Cbr>4.  says… followed by-a – o-u\u003Cbr>5.  says…\u003Cbr>6.  says…\u003Cbr>7.  says… | WEDNESDAY & THURSDAY\u003Cbr>SOFT SOUNDS\u003Cbr>Consonant Sounds heard at the “beginning” of the letter name\u003Cbr>1.  says… followed by-e- i\u003Cbr>2.  says… followed by-e","cbCaihkOIn8H3clJ","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaihkOIn8H3clJ","pdf",134188,14,"English","# Week 1 - 1st Quarter\n## Hard Sounds (Monday & Tuesday)\n## Soft Sounds (Wednesday & Thursday)\n# Week 2 - 1st Quarter\n## Soft Sounds and Difficult-to-Learn Consonants\n# Week 3 - 1st Quarter\n## Short a\n# Week 4 - 1st Quarter\n## Short e\n# Week 5 - 1st Quarter\n## Short i\n# Week 6 - 1st Quarter\n## Short o\n# Week 7 - 1st Quarter\n## Short u","[{\"question\":\"How are the 340 Grade 1 vocabulary words organized across the year?\",\"answer\":\"They are divided into nine-week quarters: 70 words in the first nine weeks and 90 words each in the next three nine-week periods, for a total of 340 words.\"},{\"question\":\"Why does the guide stress memorizing consonant sounds before starting the vocabulary lists?\",\"answer\":\"It states that completely memorized consonant sounds are essential foundation skills for efficient learning of the Grade 1 reading words.\"},{\"question\":\"What is the “Word of the Day,” and why is it more difficult?\",\"answer\":\"The last word in each daily list is the “Word of the Day,” placed in a shaded grayscale background.
