The Cat/Kite Rule - Billy Jean (Parody)

I learned this rule after teaching literacy intervention for SEVEN years from my Orton-Gillingham Training with IMSE!!!

Lyrics for your students:
Did you ever just stop to think,
When you are spelling,
"Does this word start with k or c?"
You’re not sure which one!

So you use the cat/kite rule.

If you're not sure which one...
Then you use the cat/kite rule.

In words like kid, and in key, and kite,
They got e and i!
And cat, and cup, and in cob,
They got an a, o and u.
And they fo-llow the cat/kite rule!

Teacher always told me,
Be careful when you choose,
If your word starts with a c or k!
EEEEEE!
And teacher always told me,
Pay attention to the vowel,
Is it i or is it e?
is it a or o or u? YAAAAAA

The letter K goes with i and e,
And letter C goes with o, and a, and with u!
It’s the cat and the kite rule!

So just find the vowel,
It's the cat and the kite rule!
