The teacher goes on: Let’s take a look at the number of pictures, ok? |
Child tries to produce a vocal response. |

|
26 |
|
Child:... Ei. |
27 |
Teacher goes on: now let’s separate the syllables in “leite”. Let’s go.
|
|
28 |
|
Child and teacher clap their hands together in order to count the number of syllables in the word “Leite”. |
29 |
Teacher: all right, let’s go. |
|

|
Child looks at computer screen: look how many syllables!
|
31 |
Teacher nods and says: well, let’s go. Wait. First, tell me the syllable so we can mark them up in here. |
|
32 |
|
Child: “E”, no, i mean “A” “D”.
|
33 |
What?

|
“A”, “D”.

Teacher points at screen and says: See. We are right here now. |
|
36 |
|
Child: “A, “D”. No, No...
|
37 |
Teacher: Wait a second. Would you step back a little? Sit up straight, dear. Give me some space, please. Which of the syllables here am I going to use to write the word “Le-i-te”?
|
|
38 |
|
Child points with finger. |
39 |
Teacher: Thats right! Syllable?
|
|

|
Child: EEE. |

Teacher: LE. Let me see. Let’s practice a little? Here, take a look.
|
LE |

Teacher asks child to observe his own pronunciation and places his hand on his own neck. |
LE |
43 |
Teacher: now we put this syllable and the letter together...
|
|
44 |
|
Criança: “T” ”E”.
|
45 |
Teacher: “Lete” or “Leiiiite”. Let’s see which letter is missing, dear? |
|
46 |
|
Child: “i”.
|
47 |
Teacher: oh, the “i”, I am going to mark up the “i”.
|
|
48 |
|
Child: here, the “i” is alone. Ei...(inaudible). Why is the “i” alone? The “i”? |
49 |
Teacher: now it is not going to be alone any more. When we write it in here, it is no longer alone. Right? It is alone only here (points at the space where the i appears by itself). You can write it, right? You can write it up here, ok?
