I just suggested Elena write "list" at the top of a list she was making (scribbling). I broke up the word for her, since she wasn't doing it herself: (by sounds) L - I - S - T. She interpreted the "ih" as an "E", and had difficulty writing the "S" -- it came out looking like a misshapen "E".
Presentations to be used to help this:
* Sound games (middle sounds), to distinguish words that differ "i" and "e" short vowel sounds in the middle of the word. E.g. "pen" and "pin". "wit" and "wet". "Nick" and "neck".
* Sandpaper letter "S"

For some reason, though she recognizes the S no problem, she has difficulty writing it. It's like she recognizes the curves and goes a bit overboard in writing it, making loops.
