The Illustrated Book of Sounds & Their Spelling Patterns

by Sarah K Major Author

(From Amazon): How It Works: A finite number of sounds make up all the words in the English language. With The Illustrated Book of Sounds & Their Spelling Patterns, students learn to read/spell those sounds that are the building blocks of all words. The Illustrated Book of Sounds & Their Spelling Patterns replaces ineffective memorization of words, phonics rules, or decoding, with kid-friendly, brain-friendly patterns and visuals. Students are engaged in listening to sounds, finding patterns, and learning through cartoons and story bytes. The Illustrated Book of Sounds & Their Spelling Patterns demystifies reading by giving students the tools they need to decode unknown, difficult words with ease. It's Tested: This approach has been tested from regular classrooms to resource and special education settings, from whole group to small group, and with children in grades one through middle school. The Illustrated Book of Sounds & Their Spelling Patterns empowers teachers and parents to provide differentiated instruction to every student regardless of their ability level. It's Easy to Use: The best news about The Illustrated Book of Sounds & Their Spelling Patterns is that it can be incorporated into any existing curriculum in 15-20 minutes a day, replacing your spelling lesson. The Illustrated Book of Sounds & Their Spelling Patterns is also teacher-friendly. Once you are familiar with the approach, your work is done!
