Know the Code: Short Vowel "a"

(0)
This multisensory resource, in PDF format, is based on the principles of Orton Gillingham and designed to support decoding, encoding, comprehension and reading fluency. This resource is just one of the many that focus on short vowels. If you like this multisensory resource, then please review the others in my "shop!" Additional skills developed with this multisensory unit: Short vowel /a/ Phonemic Awareness Reading Strategies Writing Activities Comprehension Reading fluency Processing speed Working Memory Long term memory Word Retrieval Brain development and degrees of maturation are as varied and as different as each student. This resource provides opportunities for repetition, review, and practice using multisensory strategies for short vowel /a/. It is important students have time to process this short vowel (u) because students often confuse it sound with other short vowel sounds. Please contact me if you have questions at ekennyfoggin@gmail.com. Best wishes, Elizabeth Kenny-Foggin M.S., M.A., OG-TT (IMSLEC)
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.

PLEASE NOTE: All ways of saying the ough are intermingled, not separated This is not a lesson on different sounds made by OUGH. 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!

Using OUGH Bingo, students can: 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.

(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.

Know the Code: Short Vowel "i"
ekennyfogginekennyfoggin

Know the Code: Short Vowel "i"

(0)
This is a multisensory PDF 10 page resource to support students developing reading skills. Students lacking the ability to identify short vowels "i" will continue to struggle to decode and encode basic one-syllable words and multisyllabic words if the skill is not learned to automaticity. Reading fluency will continue to be negatively impacted until students understand and automatically react to short vowels. Strong readers are reading with automaticity - they have gone beyond identifying sounds within words-their brains see the entire grouping of letters of each word and respond. The activities included in this multisensory resource support student development of the skill "short i." Additionally, writing development is included. Too often, there is a strong emphasis on decoding and encoding, but writing skills are "lost" in the process. Keep students immersed in writing, using basic writing strategies like COPS - Capitalize, Organization, Punctuation and Spelling. Have questions? Contact me at ekennyfoggin@gmail.com . Thank you.

This is a multisensory PDF resource designed to support students developing reading skills. Students without the ability to identify short vowels, including short vowel "i" will continue to struggle to decode and encode basic one-syllable words and multisyllabic words.Additionally, reading fluency will continue to be negatively impacted until students understand and automatically react to short vowels. Reading fluency is critical to overall comprehension. If students are unable to comprehend, then other individuals must intervene. This is a support, but for many students, support becomes complete reliance on others to identify words. We need to support independence. Students with age appropriate reading automaticity have gone beyond identifying sounds within words-their brains see the entire grouping of letters of each word and respond. The activities included in this multisensory resource support student development of the skill "short i." Additionally, writing development is included. Too often, there is a strong emphasis on decoding and encoding, but writing skills are "lost" in the process. Keep students immersed in writing, using basic writing strategies like COPS - Capitalize, Organization, Punctuation and Spelling. Have questions? Contact me at ekennyfoggin@gmail.com . Thank you.
