**Please Note: This is a self-paced course, allowing your learner to watch the videos, practice the skills, and play the games when it is convenient for you. There are no live meetings for this course, but I will be available with tips, tricks, and advice to help your learner succeed.** While this class is PART 2, you do not necessarily need to take part 1 first, but please see the class description to be sure you have the base knowledge required to succeed in part 2. Spelling is a difficult skill to master and even strong readers can struggle to spell words. Students succeed with spelling when they receive explicit, systematic spelling instruction. This class will allow students explicit instruction and practice to improve their spelling skills. In this class, we will use "Pop-its" (Feel free to use any pop-it you have--or just your fingers!) to segment words, then match sound/spelling combinations to those sounds to create words. A weekly class video released on Mondays will include: 1. A "Super Important Question"--share your answer with the group via text or video 2. A Mini-lesson on the spelling rule or pattern (with game or activity provided for you to complete) 3. Practice with Phonemic awareness (usually segmentation, also work with syllables--often with game or activity) 4. Dictation of words (Following the pop, write, check method--learners will spell several words along with me on video in order to be able to check their own work). All content that learners post in response to games, activities, and questions will be responded to promptly--usually within 48 hours. A word list will be provided each week for additional practice. This can be given as a "test" to submit with specific feedback provided, or simply for additional practice. Week 1: Vowel Team syllables (AI/AY) Week 2: Vowel Team syllables (EE/EA) Week 3: Vowel Team Syllables (OA/OE) Week 4: Bossy R syllables (ar/or) Week 5: Bossy R syllables (/er/ spelled ir, er, ur) Week 6: long i (IGH/I_E, Y) Week 7: /oi/ Week 8: /ow/ Week 9: /aw/ Week 10: oo (2 sounds) Week 11: adjacent vowels (lion, idea) Week 12: CLe syllables
Learning Goals
Learners will improve their spelling of phonetically regular word through multi-sensory techniques and improvement in phonemic awareness.
