Here Kamil places the correct missing vowel on the cards with short vowels, and practice pronouncing short vowel sounds. Other strategies for Kamil to try are “Change Hen to Fox” and “Word Ladders” (DeVries, 2015). Explicit teaching of simple suffixes, prefixes, compound words, diphthongs, bases, and roots is necessary for Kamil in order to improve his ability to decode and read polysyllabic words. Activities such as “Dominoes” in which Kamil focuses on initial and ending sound of the words, or “Reading by Analogy”, in which Kamil breaks apart words, and think of other known words to help him read the parts, may add to the improvement of Kamil’s decoding skills.

Currently, he believes some of the shards are from Crete and there is rock from the Mani peninsula. Perhaps, the pieces from Crete came directly from a site destroyed around the time of the tomb’s construction, but this is far from proven.
