Then, go underneath the light blue rectangle, click on the picture in black and white of "people" - you are now one of my followers! This multisensory PDF document is designed to support student development of concepts and vocabulary. Please check the Table of Contents highlighted in the Preview section of this resource. 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. If possible, please laminate for increased flexibility with the arrow moving around the wheel. If you have any questions, please email me at ekennyfoggin@gmail.com Thank you.

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. It has been my experience, over and over again, that when I laugh and engage in fun while teaching a concept, the students learn! Maybe at this point in my teaching career I love to make the kids groan, but I really know each student loves the fun!

Finally, click on the picture in black and white of people in a group- under the blue rectangle This is a PDF resource to develop the concepts of verbs - in particular helping verbs. Using the Orton Gillingham principles: multisensory, explicit, sequential, cumulative and repetitive, students become better equipped to identify helping verbs. Why is this important, the more understanding students have to the specific functions of a word in a sentence, the stronger the comprehension and writing skills. There are a few multisensory activities to develop understanding of helping verbs separate from "action" or linking verbs.The more "hands-on" activities the stronger a learner's connection. Students often struggle to identify the difference between nouns, verbs, adjectives, adverbs and prepositions.

Know the Code: Consonant Digraph "wh"

(0)
This multisensory PDF resource , based on Orton Gillingham principles focuses on the consonant digraph "wh" that typically is presented last of the "H" brothers: sh, ch, th and wh. "Wh" words are typically introduced to students through the question words: why, when, what, which, and who, during the early school years of up to grade 2. However, students may not understand that "wh" is actually a consonant digraph, and need specific and direct instruction to gain this knowledge. Another reason that "wh" is typically presented as the last of the "H" brothers is because the words that include "wh" include higher level skills such as vowel consonant e words and words with vowel diphthongs, another higher level skill. The "Wh" lesson unit includes: Information page for teachers and parents Suggested Skill Presentation Script to support Adults presentation to students Multisensory Introductory lesson Phonemic Awareness Activity Word list (use only words students can identify based on their skill level) Reading fluency practice using phrases Controlled reading of sentences to develop reading fluency Word Search - OPTIONAL Activity - This activity is only for students who like to do this type of activity. Students with visual and processing difficulties may become very frustrated so please be guided according to the needs of your student. Memory development for word retrieval of either other consonant digraphs and selected short vowels.
