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!
If you like this multisensory resource built on the principles of Orton Gillingham and supported by explicit teaching and continual review and reinforcement, this is the resource to use!

Students who have used this packet in my private practice love doing the work, but more importantly internalized the concepts that are embedded in the suffix "-es" like noun versus verb.
Check out the teacher supports and resources prior to working with your student (s.) Though basic in its design, provides a wealth of background knowledge for the adult who may not be familiar with the specific strategies used in the packet.
It is my hope that this multisensory approach to the suffixes "-ure, and "-ture" will support your student(s) ability to embed and use the suffixes, and understand its part of speech as a noun.

This multisensory PDF resource is for students learning the "E" rule using the principles of the Orton Gillingham. Students are introduced to the concept of the E Rule through explicit, sequential steps, along with numerous activities to help internalize the concept to automaticity. Additional activities are included for students that are optional: A word search and unscrambling words. However, do not make the word search and unscrambling of words mandatory since students with visual processing challenges will potentially struggle.
The knowledge of this concept requires support for some struggling students in the higher grades. So, this can be a differentiation activity for struggling readers, spellers and writers. It is up to the teacher and/or parent to determine which activities are best suited for the individual using this resource for academic development.

This lesson is based on Orton Gillingham Multisensory Language Development principles.
A sampling of skills developed with this multisensory lesson:
Prefix “sub-“
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.
The prefix sub- means below, under or near. The ability to know a prefix's meaning is a major support for students reading words that are in reading passages in English, science and social studies text books. Struggling readers benefit from knowing the meanings of prefixes like sub-.
This resource focuses on a multitude of skills that many students have not internalized, even though students are higher grade levels. Students in high school level classes have used this lesson and have developed an automaticity of the prefix meaning for sub-, and supports word recognition, stronger reading fluency, and improved comprehension.
Students in middle school, and gifted students will also benefit using this lesson. However, all students require review and repetition of this prefix. It is important students have time to process these skills.

This is a great multisensory lesson based on the principles of Orton Gillingham. The focus is r-controlled / bossy ir. There are numerous activities in this packet to support understanding of r-controlled words. R-Controlled/Bossy R (both terms are used interchangeably) include: ar, er, ir, or, and ur. The R "bosses" the vowel around, causing the vowel to sound different. The R comes after the vowel (this helps students for spelling purposes).

The Basics of a Paragraph
This multisensory lesson is available to support students with writing challenges. Many students, whether classified, or unclassified, struggle with writing. Actually, some students experiences melt downs when required to write, the result of memory and/or processing difficulties. Students benefit from the use of models, examples, and having the writing activity broken down into parts to be successful. Further, this lesson has an editor's check list so students develop writing skills by looking at their writing and classmates from a different perspective.
Writing is a process, and students develop skills at different time periods. So, if you want to support writing development, this is a great lesson. Parents can help out at home, and be the "editors" and have conversations to explain their feedback to their child.
The packet includes the following:
Page 1-Title
Page 2 - Informational page
Page 3 - Introductory page of the lesson with a breakdown of the parts of a paragraph; and there is a model so students can refer to the model as support
Page 4 - Paragraph practice that includes topic possibilities, and a graphic organizer to complete a brainstorming activity
Page 5/6 - Graphic organizer to write each part of the paragraph
Page 7 - Writer's Check list
Page 8/9 - Reflection pages for student to consider the activity beyond the classroom setting. Students benefit from reflective thinking in order to grow academically. In this lesson students are encouraged to consider and think about their writing skills development.

This is a PDF formatted multisensory resource based on the Orton Gillingham methodology, for students in middle or high school grades. Roots are a very valuable skill to provide students for vocabulary and comprehension development. Why? Roots have meanings, and roots are a major layer of our language. Students can use this knowledge to decode and words and meanings. When an individual knows a root's meaning, when words encountered have that root, even if not ever viewed before, the meaning of the word is partially known. This is a great support for comprehension and fluency.
Vocabulary development using roots is a better tool then teaching single words in isolation. There is a vocabulary graphic organizer included that is really a powerful multisensory tool to develop vocabulary of the roots spec, spect, spic. The graphic organizer includes the word, meaning, part of speech, student generated sentences, and the origin of the word. Each of these parts work together to support student vocabulary development.
