オートン・ギリンガムグループ指導: 母音チームの増加と R 制御母音

Each class will run in the exact same format as to instill confidence and security in the children.  I will follow a lesson plan that includes a visual drill, blending drill, and auditory drill. Full participation in the lesson requires a constant dialogue between students and instructor.  Students will have a student response sheet (SRS) in which they will record their responses for the auditory drill and the remaining parts of the lesson.  In each class I will review an old skill, review the skill taught in the previous lesson, and introduce a new skill.  Students will read phonetically fair text and good fluency will be promoted and fluency strategies will be employed.  Near the end of each lesson I will teach the students a new red word (not phonetically fair, must be learned and memorized).  We will practice our new red word and review our previous red words.  We will use movement methods such as table writing, arm tapping, and sky writing to improve chances of the information going into long-term memory.  Our final task will be dictation.  I will dictate one to three  sentences for the children to write.  Students will practice self-editing strategies. If there is time at the end we will play a game or I will tell a joke or give the children a riddle.  

Week One:  Students will review and practice words with medial y.  Broad a (all, water, squash) will be practiced.  The ie (pie) vowel team will be introduced and practiced.  

Week Two:  We will review and practice words with ie (pie), as well as words with the y-consonant-e pattern (style).  We will extend our mnemonic for the spellings of long i.  The vowel teams ue (glue) and ew (flew) will also be taught and practiced.

Week Three:  Students will review and practice words with oo, ue and ew.  This week we will focus on the more complex /er/ spellings, as in "works" and "early."  

Students who complete this class will have the option of signing up for the next level OG course that I teach and continuing on in the progression to learn more phonemes/graphemes and more advanced spelling rules. More mnemonics for multiple spellings will also be taught in more advanced levels.
