Once learners uncover the rules for dividing words into their sound/meaning-parts or chunks, learning to read big words becomes a fun challenge that they enjoy and will take the time to do!  Kind of like solving a puzzle! 

Using a combination of research-based literacy programs and teacher created materials with a systematic, brain empowering scope and sequence (SIPPS Challenge Level / The Science of Reading / Orton Gillingham), learners will acquire the strategies and skills that create proficient readers no matter how long the word is!  Learning to read the parts of words in this way helps to speed the process of decoding and leads to great accuracy and fluency.

This approach is systematic and teacher-directed, with daily routines for modeling, practice, and correction for various kinds of errors.  Sessions are action oriented with auditory, visual, and kinesthetic elements reinforcing one another. 

The core program includes a variety of interactive instructional routines, activities and games.  All activities require verbal responses or active on-screen remote sharing to ensure active engagement and allow me to adapt as I assess progress.  Each session will follow a similar sequence and routines in order to build confidence and systematically teach multi-syllabic word reading, morphology, and advanced phonics skills.

Learners will continue learning from Part 1 and be introduced to: 
- the final 3 syllable types (out of 6) in the English language
- 22 more affixes/morphemes that change pronunciation and word meaning
- continued advanced phonics 
- syllable division rules for VCCCV words, VV words, VCe words, and Bossy R words
