Lesson 71: Practice Reading Multisyllable Words

This lesson provides additional direct instruction and practice with multisyllable words. Remember
learning and practicing how to handle these multisyllable words greatly improves your reading. I will add
a light pencil mark if you need help breaking a word apart. As the student reads, have a pencil ready.
Make a slashmark to indicate syllable breaks only if and when they need some assistance with a word.
