Spelling is Telling 3

Pitch the vocab to the group.

Transference of spelling into daily writing tasks.

Tips on syllable work

Important to put this in classroom

 

consonant gaurd traps it so short sound

Syllable division

Kids need to have the language in their brain before learning words. Very important to develop vocab as well as ESL students
I
Above strategy for syllable division
first step identify vowel and consonants. remember every syllable has a vowel in it. this word has 2 vowels so 2 syllable . first syllable has a consonant guard so short vowel say it. 2nd syllable doesn't so say c o co



consonant guard so first syllable short last not so say name
1 closed and 1 open

syllable break after the vowel so long vowel as not a guard.
so 2 open syllables



don't teach different syllable types in one session

Where to start.

Make sure have knowledge before you begin

Diagnostic sheet with sentences and student have the recording sheet

Stage 2 assessment is what I have.

Looking at letter formation as well - if reversals etc it is marked wrong. They know the sound need to work on formation

Handwriting70% of cognitive load

IF 80% doing well but still need to teach

10 or less words correct what don't they know do they have the phonological awareness intact

Dysgraphic students - firm pencil press, large writing and spelling random. Needs kids need automaticity. 

Make sure you say the word as we say it usually e.g over "ova" tripped "Trippt"

So after the test.
Then Page 14 of workbook

t ed need to know that ed has a t sound but not applying

nail
long vowel sound followed by one consonant
beans

This is an order of scope and sequence. If you see there is a trend then this is where you start.
Example of an assessment. Pink is progress made. Auto data tool for classrooms


Reassess every 20 weeks
10 weeks if tricky kids. but if resourced

Where do I start teaching?
Pitch the learning at right place. Vocab cognitive ability etc
Starting point then go in scope and sequence in the order from there. Follow through systematic and accumulative teaching sequence.

Scope and sequence crucial
