Stage Aim 1:
Introduction—The teacher and the student greet each other and introduce themselves.

1)At the beginning of a word: ghost, ghetto, ghee
2)At the end of a word in certain words:
In the words laugh, rough, tough, enough, trough, cough
or
In the words dough, though, thorough, furlough
3)Combined with the letter [i]:
In the middle of a syllable or a word: alright, light, tight, sight, right, might, knight, night, bright, blight, plight
or
at the end of a word: high and thigh
