Reading and Spelling instruction is based on the Phono-Graphix Method which was designed for students with Dyslexia. It is a multi-sensory approach and supported by the Science of Reading.

Breakdown of the 5 video sessions posted on Monday in one consolidated video. (The video that comes out on Monday will have all five days' worth of lessons.)

Part 1- Vocabulary and Spelling: During this part of our daily video, a new vocabulary word will be introduced. Students will learn how to spell it by using phonemic awareness. The teacher will define the word, share its part of speech, and use it in sample sentences. Students are assigned to create a sentence of their own using the vocabulary word of the day.

Student-Teacher interaction: The daily assignment is to write a creative sentence using the vocabulary word of the day and send it in a message to the teacher. Learners will receive feedback on the sentences they submit.

Part 2- Reading practice: Students will be presented with multi-syllable words to decode.  Students will mark where syllables are and where there are instances of multiple letters representing one sound. The goal of this activity is for students to become masters of breaking longer words down into smaller, more manageable parts. 

Part 3: Grammar and usage practice: (also known as Daily Oral Language exercises) Students will proofread sentences with spelling, grammar, and usage errors. They are expected to rewrite the sentences correctly, and then check their work from the video.

Because a different vocabulary word and a different set of multi-syllable word attack words will be used every day, every class meeting will cover new content   but in the same predictable format.
