Description

SnapWords Volume 1 includes six sets of SnapWords (Lists A, B, C, D, & E plus the NCDMS List). The Snap Words Mini-Lessons a175 pg, spiral-bound book provides straight-forward, easy-to-use lessons for each card and accompanies this set. Each lesson consists of 2-3 paragraphs that introduce the word, talk through the motions as well as the picture and provide sentences to illustrate the word. The remaining component of Volume 1 is a collection of sentences made from the sight words (i.e. sentences to read). These provide reading practice. This booklet Sight Words in Sentences is also user-friendly with sentences based on the SnapWordsets. Each page has five sentences printed on alternating strips of color/white. Print size is large for easy reading, which is good practice for reading the words that are being learned. Taken altogether this is a solid set for learning sight words. Those who follow the phonics is best school might resist but its easy to see that this method of learning works very well for some learners right-brain, autistic, aspergers, maybe even dyslexics. There is a cleverness to the visual depictions that will win you over. Volume 1 with its 306 words makes an excellent follow-up to Alphabet Tales and can be used in conjunction with the Easy-for-Me Readers. ~ Janice

Category Description for SnapWords

These captivating little word cards tell a story. You might think of a SnapWord as a word that is a picture literally the letters of the word stylized into a picture that captures the meaning of the word. Professionally crafted with a whimsical feel and yet with a consistency that shows the relationship between the words and also, to some extent, between the letters in the words. SnapWords are "sight" words or high frequency words from a variety of sources (Dolch, Fry and Fauntas & Pinnell) arranged into "lists" (groups of words) and printed on cards (4.25" x 2.75"). Each card features one word (large tube-type font). For instance, the word "both" shows a girl figure on top of the "b", another girl figure on top of the "h" and a boy figure on top of the "t" pointing to the two. The back side of each card lists a motion to illustrate the word ("Point to people on both sides of you.") and a sentence using the word in context. The 607 total SnapWords cards are collected into various "lists": seven lists from the various sight word sources (Lists A, B, C, D, E, F, & G) plus two that are nouns (N1 and N2), one of verbs (V), and a collection of numbers, colors, days, months, seasons (NCDMS). The various sets are also available as part of the grade level reading kits (larger 5.5" x 4.25" cards) or as SnapWord Pocket Chart Cards. If youre looking for reinforcement apps for your mobile, SnapWords has one for a minimal cost ($4.99 in 2017).

Why did you choose this?

My son is dyslexic and we were told he may learn words he can "picture" easier than just the printed letters. We tried List A and were amazed how easily he learned the "picture" side. After practicing…

Because I have a right brain learner who is extremely struggling in the typical phonics program.

I am currently teaching my son (age 6) to read, and the way I was taught is just not working for him. I'm hoping that these cards with the pictures and motions will appeal to his kinesthetic learning style.

We started our son on regular flash cards, but he has struggled to learn them. We got List A of Snap Words and he loves them and is learning them quickly. Once he masters the side with the picture…
