FOLLOW ME AND MULTISENSORY RESOURCES SOLD IN MY SHOP! How? Click on my user name - ekennyfoggin above - then click on the word "Profile." Finally, click on the picture in black and white of people in a group- under the blue rectangle . This PDF resource is a poster and can be a graphic organizer for students to keep at their desk, or in a folder to bring back and forth to school . The seven syllable types are listed and each includes a simple clip art for quick retrieval when reading or completing reading work. the seven (7) syllable types include: 1. Closed (stop) 2. Open (we) 3. Bossry -R (BR) (shirt) 4. VCe (slide) 5. Vowel Team (VT) (beach) 6. Diphthong (DT) (boy) 7. Consonant-le (c-le) (sizzle) This poster is based on the principles of Orton Gillingham including the use of one's senses to create a multisensory experience. For the purposes of this poster/graphic organizer, students can see the words, pictures and abbreviations for each syllable types. Teachers have different methods to explain vowel teams and vowel diphthongs. There are teachers who prefer to teach these two syllables as one under the category of Vowel Team. Others prefer to separate the two syllable types into Vowel teams - where the first long sound is heard though there are two vowels next to each other. Vowel Diphthongs, also have two vowels next to each other, but the two vowels combine to make their own unique sound. The point is, explain to students there are two viewpoints, and share the way you present. I hope you find this a great resource and tool. Many parents, teachers and students have shared that they like having a copy at their desks. it helps a student be a bit more independent, and not require him/her to wait for help. Have questions?

Know the Code: The Most Dangerous Game

Looking for a model of a short story plot triangle model for your students? Would any of your students benefit from having a graphic organizer of a short story plot triangle? Would you like to save time reinventing "the short story plot triangle" for every short story discussed? This resource uses the Most Dangerous Game, a classic suspense short story read in so many middle and high schools. Teach the short story triangle using The Most Dangerous Game. Students read the story, learn about the specific aspects of a short story plot triangle, and then can independently use the information in this resource for additional short stories comprehension! The second file contains the actual text of the short story, The Most Dangerous Game. Since this classic suspense fictional short story is available online for free, I downloaded, formatted so students can annotate and have an easier time reading the text. The price of this multisensory resource if for the power point only - the story is free and available by "googling "free text of The Most Dangerous Game." It is my hope that providing it would save you time! Additional strategies are included to support student development beyond the short story triangle such as a K-W-L graphic organizer, and a mini lesson on what strategies are and why strategies are important for readers to use when reading. For many students, unless explicitly explains and discussed, the connection is not made and students may continue to struggle year after year due to their uncertainty of what the literacy elements are to the short story triangle!

The activities in this multisensory resource can take a few days, based on student ability to complete. Check out the directions to identify differentiation suggestions so all students can participate based on their specific needs. This resource to support my students using vocabulary that is created using prefixes, suffixes and roots; Latin and Greek connectives; spelling rules and generalizations, along with phonograms - vowels, both short and long; vowel teams; vowel diphthongs, consonant blends, consonant digraphs; words and vowels that are "schwaed," and words from Megawords2(R), Students in need of additional application practice to internalize the skills have benefited from this multisensory workbook styled resource. Students love the spinner and feel proud because some are able to independently "run" the game with classmates. This increase in independence really builds confidence, while still learning. A WIN WIN! What is also great about this multisensory resource is students can work with a partner, in a small group, or participate in a class activity with teacher modeling. The "game" format provides a fun method to internalize the specific skills of words presented. Skills include prefixes, suffixes, phonograms (i. e., consonant blends, ending blends, vowel sounds). What is nice about this activity is the kids have fun while learning! Teachers/parents need to print out the "spinner and wheel" and using a paper clasp, insert the spinner arrow to the wheel.

FOLLOW ME AND MULTISENSORY RESOURCES SOLD IN MY SHOP! How? Click on my user name - ekennyfoggin above - then click on the word "Profile." Finally, click on the picture in black and white of people in a group- under the blue rectangle . This is a great multisensory game to support students with sight words that include the letters O U G H. PLEASE NOTE: All ways of saying the ough are intermingled, not separated This is not a lesson on different sounds made by OUGH. There are different ways of saying OUGH, but the focus for this activity is to develop the skill to spell words with OUGH. There is an expression used O - U - Grumpy Horse) to support student recall when supporting words that include this group of letters: "O U Grumpy Horse" Many students continue to struggle spelling words that include ough.; and the words are included in this game. By putting the words together under the category of O U G H, with a visual of a grumpy horse, students should increase ability to recall quicker and eventually internalize how to spell, and recognize when the words are read using a multisensory game approach! Page 1 -Title page Page 2- Directions and materials required Pages 3 - 18 Student game boards Page 19 - Master list of words Pages 20 - 23 - All words that are part of the bingo game (will need to be separated prior to playing game) Blank template of a game board Students thoroughly enjoy this game. There are a few activities that students can do in addition to OUGH Bingo, using the materials: Students can write words in sentences Students can alphabetize words - a great way to focus in on specific letter sequence Students can orally provide a sentence to the group after identification of the word. All of the words have ough ; ought as part of their spelling makeup. If students can visualize or group these challenging words, both decoding (reading) and encoding (writing) will improve. I have documented growth on the part of students using this game. It is my hope you experience the same results. If you have questions, please just email me... As always, it is my hope that you kindly follow the rule of purchasing additional licenses at half-off for each class or group that will use this game. I do believe in, "Honesty is the best policy!"

Know the Code: Vowel Diphthong  ow (cow)

Know the Code: Vowel Diphthong ow (cow)

(0)
This lesson is based on Orton Gillingham multisensory language development principles. For many students, without direct, explicit instruction of vowel diphthongs such as "ow (cow)," there will be a breakdown each time a word is read that includes a diphthong. Why? Well, students many know that vowel teams, two vowels next to each other make the long sound of the first vowel. Diphthongs differ because they are two vowels together, or side-by-side, but the sound made is unique. Basically, the two vowel sounds are not heard, but a distinctly different on. So, it is easy to understand how struggling readers might falter when decoding or reading words with diphthongs. Vowel Diphthongs are two vowels, side-by-side, that make their own unique sound. When coding syllables with diphthongs, circle the diphthong and write DT under the syllable. Vocabulary Reading comprehension Reading strategies Writing activities Reading fluency Processing Speed Working memory Long term memory Word Retrieval Students will develop a stronger vocabulary using a multisensory approach to word meaning. Students require review and repetition to internalize the sound of ow. Please contact me if you have questions. It will be my pleasure to work alongside you to support your child, or student's development of diphthongs. Have questions? Contact me at ekennyfoggin@gmail.com. Thank you.

Know the Code: Game and Activities -Spelling Rules/Generalizations

(0)
This lesson focuses on a multisensory approach, repetition, review, sequential focus on spelling rules/generalization skill building for optimum student development. It is important each student has time and opportunities to process skills to automaticity. Using a game style activity is one way for students to learn. One folder has the playing cards for game cards for concentration. So teachers use as a learning center activity. The other resource is a version of the power point that contains all of the slides used for the game cards, plus additional student activities to develop the separate spelling rules and generalizations. The rules and generalizations include: plural -s plural -es "fszl" "-ck" "-tch" "dge" "age" Doubling Rule E Rule Change Y Rule Optional Use: There are "wild cards" - students can change rule (if they turned over a different rule, so they have a "second chance" at getting a matched pair with another opportunity to turn over another card. Optional: Lose a Turn cards TEACHERS: You can determine the amount of rules to allow students to use. Remember there are 90 cards with the ten spelling rules/generalizations, young students developming visual memory will do better with less cards.But, as students's skills increase, consider increasing the number of rules/generalizations to include. This concentration game is useful for single players, partners or small groups. If you have a question, please email me at ekennyfoggin@gmail.com. thank you. Elizabeth Kenny-Foggin M.

Know the Code: Parts of Speech - Noun https://www.tes.com/us/teacher-lessons/know-the-code-parts-of-speech-noun-11168901 A multisensory approach to support student internalization of the part of speech – noun. While many believe students can identify and locate nouns in sentences, the reality is students are not always efficient. A challenge for students is in the identification of concepts/ideas, which are part of a noun description. Unfortunately, when students identify nouns, what it being is a basic note) “…people, places and things….” Students should be able to state “people, places, things and concepts/ideas.” A review of this bundle will highlight opportunities to support student development. Parents and teachers can select specific activities based on student need. Writing activities are included. Comprehension skills improve when students understand parts of speech within written text. Why? Students can locate the core elements in a sentence – the subject- a noun and verb. . Identification of the main subject (noun) and verb in complex sentences is critical to writing.

If you feel overwhelmed just hearing the word SCHWA, then this is the multisensory lesson is for you and your students. This multisensory resource provides powerful information related to the concept of schwa. So often, students ask "BUT WHY?" when it comes to schwa. Quite frankly, many adults know and can identify a schwa, but are at a loss when kids want to know more than the "upside-down "e" represents the schwa sound. This is a PDF document filled with information, word lists, and fun activities, and answer keys for application activities that students can use after to check their work. You will even find a Schwa Rap that can be performed by you and/or your students. I love being silly with my students - imagine doing a schwa rap song to 12th graders.
