Short Vowel Visual Chart Looking for a chart of short vowels including visual and words. This resource can be made into a poster for a classroom and as graphic organizers for a student's binder and homework folder. Students require a great amount of support in accessing the sounds of short vowels sounds until student has automaticity of each vowel sound. Many teachers have communicated the numerous uses this chart has been during and after class lessons. Parents and guardians use the poster in size 8 1/2 by 11 inches at home and have shared the time for homework is reduced because their child uses it to support decoding and encoding words. It is my hope that this resource supports your goals when teaching students. This tool is useful for all ages, and many older students and adults use it as well. Adults may prefer the size of the poster be reduced to 2 x 3 inches to use in daily life. Have questions, please email me at ekennyfoggin@gmail.com Thank you. Elizabeth Kenny-Foggin M. S., M.

This is a very useful multisensory PDF resource. This multisensory lesson focuses on open syllables; and can be a follow up lesson after teaching closed syllable type. There is a script to present this lesson; and the script includes a review of closed syllables. There is additional practice for students to have more opportunities to develop the skill, open syllable. This multisensory resource is perfect for parents who want to continue to support their child reading skills development. Or, if you are a teacher looking to support students in your class and do not have conferences or the ability to attend a class to learn about the different syllable types. You can look at the other syllable resources available in my shop. Email me if you would like more information at ekennyfoggin@gmail.com . It would be my pleasure to support you. Students who are able to identify the different syllable types are stronger decoders, which leads to stronger reading skills. When students have developed each of the seven syllable type concepts, their reading fluency will typically improve because they are not "stuck" figuring out the word. Why? They have the strategies to actually decode.... The multisensory packet on "open syllable" includes: Informational page Phonemic Awareness Activity Script This multisensory resource includes the concept of an open syllable with a word list to "code." Controlled reading - sentences Writing Activity Practice page for increased comprehension and internalization of concept. Reading passage Thank you. Elizabeth Kenny-Foggin M. S., M.

Become a "follower" of my multisensory shop. How? Just click on my user name, then go to the word "Profile" and click on that word. Then, go under the light blue rectangle, click on the picture in black and you will become one of my followers! Looking for a resource based on a multisensory approach that is systematic, sequential, and explicit methods for internalization, beyond the method of “memorization?” Each multisensory lesson is based on the principles of Orton Gillingham using multisensory strategies. Lessons dedicated specifically to phonograms, blends, vowel sounds, digraphs, are formatted so students become comfortable and quicker with each lesson. Expectations are often the same, reducing the mental effort and energy taken to make sense of lesson expectations. Additionally, there are numerous graphic organizers included to support student writing, reading, and study habits. Numerous pictures are included to develop oral language skills, which in turn, support vocabulary development. Students who struggle to read and write, experience a significant decline in vocabulary, which then begins a “snowball effect,” - students fall further behind, challenged to the point where these students become academically behind by months and years, compared to their peer group. Sight words are included in this resource and specific directions are included to support a multisensory presentation to teach sight words, also called “red” words. Other reading skills developed include: Decoding Encoding Reading fluency Word comprehension Sentence comprehension Paragraph comprehension Section / Chapter discourse Writing skills Sentence structure Syntax (rules of grammar) Application activities are provided to support the internalization and comprehension of concepts: Cognitive skills are also refined and developed - see below: Working memory Word Retrieval Long-term memory Processing Please check the Table of Contents for specific lessons.

Looking for a visual to support weak vowel skills? Does your student just need a visual to use intermittently as he/she progresses to higher reading skills? Would you like to have student sized visual chart that matches the poster size in your class room for continuity at school and for home? This poster provides each of the options listed! The visual poster is in PDF format. One's ability to visually, in the mind's eye, to see a picture, or a word, to decode or encode a word quickly is important to grade level learners and students working to develop previously presented skills. This is a great multisensory tool for use with students in all grade levels. Please contact me at ekennyfoggin@gmail.com if you need more information. Cordially, Elizabeth Kenny-Foggin M. S, M.

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.

Thanks for previewing this multisensory resource based on the principles of Orton Gillingham , using multisensory strategies. The concept of the letter "y" being considered an actual vowel sound can be very confusing for some students. And, then, share that the letter "w" can also be considered a vowel, and you will see young children having "heart attacks!" Of course students will not have a heart attach, but explaining the letter "y" (and sometimes "w") does not make sense UNTIL you explain the rule. When a one-syllable word ends with a long i sound, the letter written is a "Y." Examples include fly, sty, cry. There are times when specific endings are added like "-ing" students will see the y and ask "Why." Just explain the main word is one-syllable, and inflected ending can be added. I hope you find this multisensory resource supportive, and your students learn the skill! Remember, the use of a multisensory approach, use of the senses - see, hear, touch is powerful - when brain pathways are engaged, the deeper the learning connection. Have a great day.
