English Language Arts ELA2021 (2021) Grade: 1 31. Apply knowledge of grade-appropriate phoneme-grapheme correspondences and spelling rules (or generalizations) to encode words accurately.
a. Encode vowel-consonant (VC) and consonant-vowel-consonant (CVC) words, while using some knowledge of basic position-based rules for spelling English words in closed syllables.
Examples: /k/=k before i, e, or y as in kit; /k/= c before a, o, u, or any consonant as in cup, cat, cop; /k/= -ck after an accented short vowel as in duck, back, rock, pick, deck
b. Encode consonant-vowel (CV) words using knowledge of open syllable patterns.
Examples: he, me, she, go, no
c. Encode words with two-consonant blends in beginning position, including blends that are commonly confused with other spellings, by distinguishing the placement and action of the lips, teeth, and tongue during articulation.
Examples: cl, bl, sl, tr, cr, sk, st, sl, sm, sn, sp, sw, dr, br, bl
Note: Many students spell the tr blend with digraph ch because of the confusion of the coarticulation of the /t/ and /r/ sounds. Many students spell the dr blend with the letter j because of the confusion of the coarticulation of the /d/ and /r/ sounds.
d. Encode words with consonant digraphs using knowledge that one sound may be spelled with two letters.
Examples: sh, th, ch, wh, ng, ck
e. Encode words with vowel-consonant-e syllable patterns.
Examples: hike, spike, joke, dime, make
f. With prompting and support, encode words with the common vowel teams and diphthongs.
Examples: ee, ea, oa, ai, a, au, aw, oi, oy, ou, ow, oo, igh
g. With prompting and support, encode words with vowel-r combinations ar, or, er, ir , and ur .
h. With prompting and support, encode words with final /ch/ sound spelled -ch and -tch .
Examples: /ch/= ch after a consonant, vowel-r, or vowel team as in munch, bunch, porch, smooch
/ch/= tch after a short vowel sound as in hatch, crutch, ditch
i. With prompting and support, encode words with final /f/, /l/, and /s/ sounds in one-syllable base words by doubling the final consonant when it follows a short vowel sound.
Examples: cliff, hill, pass
j. Encode words with final /v/ sound, using knowledge that no English word ends with a v.
Examples: have, give, save
k. Encode grade-appropriate high frequency words that follow regular phoneme-grapheme correspondences.
Examples: am, at, can, he, we, be, in, it, came, like
l. Encode grade-appropriate high frequency words that follow regular phoneme-grapheme correspondences and patterns in all but one position, pointing out the part of the word that does not follow the regular pattern.
Examples: said, are, to
m. Encode words with suffixes -s, -es, -ing, -ed, -er , and -est .
Examples: dogs, wishes, jumping, jumped, faster, fastest
n. With prompting and support, encode words with common prefixes re-, un-, and mis-.
o. With prompting and support, encode frequently confused homophones, using knowledge of English and meaning to facilitate learning.
Examples: hear/here; for/four; to/too/two.
Note: To is a preposition which begins a prepositional phrase or an infinitive. Too is an adverb meaning "excessively" or "also." Two is a number. Many other words in English which reflect the number two are spelled with tw: twin, twice, between, tweezers.

Multisyllabic words are words that are composed of two or more syllables.
Syllable division principles.
Spelling rules (or generalizations).
To encode accurately means to spell a word correctly.
32a.
Multisyllabic words can be constructed by combining syllables.
Syllable division principles help divide words into parts with one vowel sound based on predictable patterns.
32b.
Accurate encoding of multisyllabic words requires knowledge of common syllable types.
Syllable patterns are principles that help divide words into parts with one vowel sound that can be easily spelled.
32c.
Two letter blends are a combination of two consonants in which each represents a phoneme sound.
Three letter blends are a combination of three consonants in which each represents a phoneme sound.
Digraphs are two letter combination that represents a single phoneme sound in which neither letter represents its usual sound.
Trigraphs are three letter combinations that represents a single phoneme sound.
Combinations are two letters that frequently appear together and have an associated phoneme.
Diphthongs are two vowels that represent a single vowel phonemes that glide in the middle.
Quadrigraph eigh is a combination of four letters that represents a single phoneme sound.
The letter y can represent three different vowel sounds depending on the number of syllables in the words and its position in a word.
The spelling generalizations associated with hard and soft c and g .
Silent letter combinations are letter combinations in which one or more letters is silent (does not represent a phoneme), but another letter does represent the phoneme.
Contractions are words that are combined, or shortened, and an apostrophe represents the omitted letters.
32d.
Prefixes are word parts that can be added to the beginning of a word to change the meaning of the word.
Suffixes are word parts that can be added at the end of the word to change the meaning of the word.
The root word is the base word in which a prefix or suffix can be added, and many English words contain Latin root words.
32e.
Homophones have the same pronunciation, but different meanings, origins, and/or spellings.
Context clues must be used to determine the correct spelling of a homophone. Skills:
32. Students are able to:
Accurately encode (spell) single syllable and multisyllabic words using their knowledge of phoneme-grapheme correspondences, multisyllabic word construction, syllable division principles, and spelling generalization.
Accurately divide words into syllables to spell multisyllabic words correctly.
32a.
Encode multisyllabic words using knowledge of multisyllabic word construction and syllable division principles; for example, VC/CV, com-mit,ment; V/CV, e-vent; VC/V, ev-er-y; CV/VC, po-et.
32b.
Encode words with more than one syllable using their knowledge of common syllable types: open, closed, vowel-r , vowel-consonant-e , vowel teams, consonant-le , odd, and schwa.
32c.
Accurately encode words with previously taught letter patterns, such as two letter blends, three letter blends, digraphs, trigraphs, combinations, diphthongs, quadrigraph eigh , vowel y , hard and soft c and g , silent letter combinations, and contractions.
32d.
Encode words with less common prefixes, such as fore-, pro-, intra-, inter-, trans-, non-, over-, sub-, super-, semi-, anti-, mid-, ex-, post- .
Encode words with less common suffixes, such as -y, -ly, -ful, -ment, -hood, -less, -ness, -er, -or, -en .
Encode words with common Latin roots, such as port, form, ject, spect, dict, tend, fer .
32e.
Accurately encode homophones using context clues to determine the correct spelling; for example, hear/here, night/knight, tacks/tax . Understanding:
32. Students understand that:
To spell (encode), they must accurately represent the letter symbols (graphemes) that correspond to the spoken sounds (phonemes).
They can use syllable division principles to break a word apart to make it easier to spell.
They can use their knowledge of the six syllable types to accurately encode words.
There are spelling rules, or generalizations, in the English language that can help them spell words accurately.
32a.
Multisyllabic words are composed of more than one syllable.
They can write and spell words that are multisyllabic by dividing the word into syllables and spelling each syllable, then combining the individual syllables to construct complete word.
32b.
They can encode (spell/write) multisyllabic words by dividing the words into syllables and applying their knowledge of syllable patterns.
32c.
Knowing the sound-symbol correspondences of common letter patterns will help them encode (spell/write) words accurately.
32d.
Their knowledge of the different word parts (prefixes, suffixes, and roots) can help them read and spell most multisyllabic words if they divide them apart into smaller units.
Knowing less common prefixes and suffixes and common Latin roots strengthens their spelling skills.
32e.
Homophones are words that can be confused so it is important to pay attention to the word's meaning in context (whether in written text or oral conversation) to determine the correct spelling of the homophone.
