Emery demonstrated strong foundational skills in CVC words but struggles with long vowel patterns, blends, and more complex spelling features. These results suggest that Emery is in the letter-name alphabetic stage and transitioning into the within-word pattern stage. In this stage, Emery needs further instruction in areas such as long vowel patterns, blends, and digraphs.
Strengths
CVC words; shows some understanding of consonant blends
Needs
long vowel patterns (silent e and vowel teams); blends and digraphs; complex vowel patterns
