DIRECTIONS:
Go on a pretend trip to the moon. Be assured that the following are not genuine words from the English language. They are imaginary moon words that put our sounds together to make a word. Give them any meaning that is desired by the student. This reinforces what has been taught and makes the review entertaining.
Use the following words for dictation and have the student read back each one after it has been corrected.
