The Phonetic Words and Stories books may be used after students have learned to read short vowel words. They work well with beginning readers and also with students who are already reading but need more practice to strengthen their spelling and decoding skills. This set of books has the largest print. Many students are able to learn more easily when the text for the initial instruction is large enough.
Each new pattern is taught with a set if ten color-coded words. This gives enough practice for each new pattern without being overwhelming. Each vowel sound is printed in a different color. This make the vowel pattern "pop out" within the word so the students can see it clearly. The colors provide a cue to help students remember the vowel sound. For example, each short vowel is printed in a specific pale color. The related long vowel is a darker shade of the same color. The colors help students organize their thinking as they learn new patterns. Patterns that have the same sound are printed in the same color. For example, the ai, ay, and a_e patterns are all printed in a dark red color. Sometimes one pattern can show two or more different sounds, and the color-coding is helpful for these words as well. For example, the ow pattern in the word cow is brown, while the ow pattern in the word slow is dark orange to show the long o sound. Each set of words is shown with matching pictures on the opposite page. However the words and pictures are not in the same order. This allows the teacher and students to follow a lesson plan that reinforces phonemic awareness and decoding skills. One of these activities is called the "Robot Game." The activities can be adjusted to the students' current level, depending on how much support the students need as they learn the words. After doing the activities students will usually be able to read the words comfortably. |
