Creating Scripting Dialogues
Scripting dialogues between teacher and student is a strategy used to intentionally teach the integration of written and spoken language. Scripted dialogues are used in a variety of contexts, and are especially helpful when students are practicing phonics, word recognition, and spelling.
Part 1: Scripting Dialogues Table
Using the “Scripting Dialogues Table” with the “Birthday Soup” excerpt, create teacher-student dialogues specific to using single-letter and consonant digraphs, short vowel and long vowel sounds, and appropriate use of word building and word building-spelling.

Part 2: Rationale
In a 250-500 word rationale, summarize how each dialogue is effective and developmentally appropriate for teaching phonics, word recognition, and spelling.
Explain how you will use your findings in your future professional practice.
Support your findings with 2-3 scholarly sources.

Part 1: Scripting Dialogues Table
Single-Letter and Consonant Digraphs
Teacher: “Today we listened to “Birthday Soup” from the book Little Bear. It is Little Bear’s birthday. He says, “Oh, dear, Mother Bear is not here, and today is my birthday.” Bear and birthday begin with the same sound: the /b/ sound. Kindly watch my mouth as I pronounce /b/. Say with me “ /b/.”
Students: “/b/”
Teacher: Show students the large letter b card. Say, “This is the letter b. The letter b stands for the /b/ sound in bear and birthday. Say /b/.”
Students: “/b/”
Teacher: “Every time I touch the letter b, say /b/.” Touch the letter b card several times.
Students: “/b/”
Students: “/b/”
Students: “/b/”
Teacher: The Little Bear thinks that his friends will come in, yet there is no birthday cake. He decides to put something on the pot that is by the fire to make a Birthday Soup. The word "something" contains the consonant 'th’, the sound/th/. Say after me, /th/.
