There is just one change. In Step 5, Dictate Sentences, change this sentence to delete the word "you":
Beth said that Tom is a sweet boy!

Here's another change that will appear in the next printing:

In Step 11, it says to store the ed tile under the "Vowel Teams" label. It actually belongs under the "Other Tiles" label.

I've got a question that has come up as we've gone through Level 3.

It comes from Step 13. In the list of words to apply the 1-1-1 Rule is the word 'stir + ing' and I notice that it makes a mention of the 'ir' tile which hasn't been taught.

When we got to this, I just built the word stir with four tiles, we added another r+ing, and went on with it, but I made a quick mention that later we will be taught that 'ir' really is one sound, one tile and will be another purple /er/ that we will get to in a few weeks.

Should I have done something different with that?

Hi Gloria,

You handled this situation perfectly! The word stirring will be deleted from Step 13 in the next print run of Level 3. As you noticed, the ir phonogram isn't introduced until later in the Level 3 book.

I was wondering about the word analysis at the start of Step 10. The word is billfold, which obviously has 3 L's in it...but the board only has two L tiles.

We just wrote in the missing one with our dry erase markers.

That's what we did too!
