Description
Another impressive set of Child1st teaching cards - this time effectively taking on spelling. Colorful cards (5.5" x 4.25") illustrate 154 sound spellings in 22 categories. The uniqueness here is that all spellings for that particular sound are shown together in single sentences. For instance, for long O - "I told you most of them have to go." - is shown on the front of the card for O. Each usage is colorfully designated. The back of the card shows all the ways to spell long O (o, ow, oa, o-e, oe, ough, oo, and ou) each with a sample word and then another sentence that uses each of those types of words (Though, it'll snow at home, your poor goat will go to Joe.) Frankly, this is an amazingly creative way to help children learn the differences between sounds and spellings as well as the relationship between them. You have to admire the ability to come up with all those applicatory sentences. This set of cards coordinates with the Illustrated Book of Sounds and Their Spelling Patterns. Together, you will have an effective spelling program that is likely to be exactly what your right-brain learner needs but might fit into the "fun" category for most types of learners. Both are included in the Easy-for-MeGrade 2 Kit. The cards come in their own handy, cardboard storage box. ~ Janice
Publisher's Description of Sound Spelling Teaching Cards
One of the most effective ways to help struggling readers launch into reading is by teaching them to listen to the sounds in words, and then teaching them how to spell those sounds. Children will stop struggling to sound out unknown words and will instead be able to quickly analyze new words.
With Sound Spelling Teaching Cards, you will be equipped to effectively teach 154 sound spellings, word structure, spelling, and to enhance reading comprehension. Sound Spelling Teaching Cards include all sound spellings that are not a basic sound. Any time a letter represents a different sound or is combined with other letters to make a new sound together, there is a card. There are also multiple cards for each sound. For example, Long O has 8 cards representing the 8 different ways to spell Long O.
Category Description for Child 1st Publications Spelling
Child 1st Publications Spelling offers 128 lessons covering 193 distinct sound spelling patterns, as well as past tense spellings, plural spellings, homophones, double consonants, and 32 suffixes. The basic idea is to read and spell all the sounds that are the basic building blocks of all words, equipping children to decode larger, more challenging words. Lessons are entertaining and filled with fun cartoons to help drive lessons home. Daily practice involves a whiteboard and markers (not included), and finger mapping (using fingers to build a visual representation of the sounds in a word).
Each week a new sound is presented and reviewed for 10-15 minutes over the next 3 days, with an assessment on the 5th day. One sound is taught at a time but all the ways to spell that sound are also taught at that same time. Use alone or with the colorful Teaching Cards. These cards illustrate 154 sound spellings in 22 categories. All spellings for that particular sound are shown together in single sentences. This is an amazingly creative way to help children learn the differences and relationships between sounds and spellings!
I will be homeschooling two kindergartners this year. I am excited to add this resource to our literacy center!
These work SO well for my 7 year old son! They have really helped him become a more fluent reader! The images help him memorize the words!
My daughter is having a hard time sounding out large words. I thought it would help her with her chunking.
