An image of two open pages of a notebook, with the center seam running down the middle, featuring writing in two different handwritings. On the left, “3TH OCTOBER” is written at the top by one person. The “th” following the three is circled, with a point at the bottom like a speech bubble pointing to “3RD,” “THIRD,” “2ND,” “SECOND,” “1ST,” “FIRST,” “4TH,” and “FOURTH,” written in a list by the second person. Underneath is a line that extends across the page, beneath which are words written in a cluster with accompanying illustrations next to each one, done by the first person. They are “BODY,” “SOCK,” “CUP,” “FISH,” “JUG,” and “FROG,” with some spelling mistakes crossed out near the words. The page on the right also features the same two handwritings. The top of the page has writing by the second person. It reads: “TO WORK ON: — / GRAPHEME CLUSTERS  SINGLE PHONEMES: — / TH, SH, CH, CK / AND OTHER CLUSTERS: — / |S| CLUSTERS” followed by letters arranged in columns, which are “P” and “F” in squares on the left and “L,” “R,” and “W” on the right, with a plus sign in between these columns. At the bottom of the page is writing by the first person, featuring two-letter combinations, each circled, and written in a cluster. They are: “SL,” “SN,” “SW,” “CH,” “CK,” “SC,” “SM,” “CR,” “SK,” “GL,” “SH,” “FL,” “SP,” “GR,” “ST,” “CL,” and “FR,” as well as “CO” and “SO,” which have been crossed out.
