# Twenty controlled practice lines · local entry required

These short lines are a print practice pool, not the rich texts or a grade-level reading claim. Match every word to actual prior teaching and readiness using the [selection recipe](PRINT-SELECTION.md). Grapheme labels alone do not prescribe pronunciation: the reviewed pool distinguishes e-long in replay, s-z in plays and a-aw in tall/small, and a-ah in mast. Familiar-word declarations are explicit. Local accent/pronunciation is reviewed by the teacher. Phonic reading, meaning, morpheme reasoning and dictation are separate. Neither oa nor any other next pattern is assumed taught.

## Word parts: meaningful, not automatic decoding

Ordinary families: pack + un-/ -s / -ing; play + re-/ -s / -ing. Every spelling in the [reviewed data](pack-data.json) has an explicit constituent map. Pack keeps ck in packing; play keeps ay in playing. Plays uses /z/ for s, packs uses /s/. Replay has e representing a long vowel in the prefix. Teacher checks whether these mappings and the actual morphemes were taught. Adult-read meaning study is useful when they were not; it is not independent word reading or spelling.

Optional raincoat combines rain and coat (two bases, not a prefix/suffix family). It needs ai AND oa for independent reading, plus other actual taught labels. A compound word does not establish a compound sentence. Held print and teacher dictation do not appear in these ordinary lines.
