Know the Code: Spelling Rule "E Rule"

(0)
This multisensory PDF resource is for students learning the "E" rule using the principles of the Orton Gillingham. Students are introduced to the concept of the E Rule through explicit, sequential steps, along with numerous activities to help internalize the concept to automaticity. Additional activities are included for students that are optional: A word search and unscrambling words. However, do not make the word search and unscrambling of words mandatory since students with visual processing challenges will potentially struggle. The knowledge of this concept requires support for some struggling students in the higher grades. So, this can be a differentiation activity for struggling readers, spellers and writers. It is up to the teacher and/or parent to determine which activities are best suited for the individual using this resource for academic development. Please contact me if you have any questions at ekennyfoggin@gmail.com Thank you. Elizabeth Kenny-Foggin M. S., M. A., OG-TT (IMSLEC) ekennyfoggin@gmail.com

Know the Code: Vowel Team - ea (long vowel sound)

(0)
This unit is based on Orton Gillingham Multisensory Language Development principles. The Vowel Team ea has the long sound of /e/. There is another sound for ea - short vowel sound e. But the second pronounciation should be presented later Why? It is less common than the Vowel Team ea. Want to view the short e sounding ea lesson. Then go to : https://www.tes.com/uploader/v2/11155773/preview A sampling of skills developed with this multisensory unit: “Vowel team “ea” Reading Reading Strategies Writing Activities Parts of Speech Syllabication and Accents Comprehension Reading fluency Processing speed Working Memory Long term memory Word Retrieval Students will develop stronger decoding, along with an enhanced vocabulary using a multisensory approach Brain development and degrees of maturation are as varied and as different as each student. This unit places a great deal of repetition, review, practice using multisensory strategies and techniques. It is important students have time to process skills. Otherwise, students may only memorize, rather than comprehend. Memorization can be very limiting, when compared to deep comprehension. Please contact me if you have questions at ekennyfoggin@gmail.com. It will be my pleasure to support your child, or student’s needs. Thank you. Elizabeth Kenny-Foggin M.S., M.A., OG-TT (IMSLEC)

Know the Code: Syllable Type "cle"

Know the Code: Syllable Type "cle"

(0)
This multisensory PFD resource is designed with the principles of Orton Gillingham. For many teachers, and parents, the presentation of the concept C-le" can be a bit overwhelming. HOWEVER, do not worry! This bundle of activities are designed to support an individual's understanding of this syllable type. This syllable type is an actual syllable and is the last syllable presented since one needs the additional knowledge to internalize the concept. There are a few activities to help students develop a strong understanding of the skill. Additionally, there are specific focuses on the other syllable types in the "first syllable" of the word, prior to the consonant-le. Students development of other skills include: Understanding of syllables, Understanding of different syllable types Understanding of long and short vowels Decoding Encoding Word comprehension Reading Comprehension Reading Fluency Working Memory Visual Memory Word Retrieval Long-term Memory Processing Speed It is my sincerest hope that this bundle of activities will help students develop stronger reading skills AND that teachers, general education, special education, basic skills, to list a few are spared the time needed to create such a detailed resource. My goal is to provide accurate and "clear" resources for students, teachers and parents in multiple multisensory methods to support student learning! Have a question? Just email me at ekennyfoggin@gmail.com. Thank you. Elizabeth Kenny-Foggin M. S., M. A., OG-TT (IMSLEC) ekennyfoggin@gmail.com

Thank you for previewing this multisensory lesson in PDF resource with student activities that can used to support reading skills development and increase student memory. Students need to have automaticity of short vowel sounds, through multisensory activities. The ability to say short vowel sounds can be very difficult for struggling readers. It is important to carefully present each skill. It is important to present one vowel sound at a time, and to provide time in-between so student has a stronger opportunity to internalize the vowel. It is recommended to provide student with a visual chart of all short vowels in the classroom, and one the homework folder. This visual support will provide additional support while student internalizes each sound learned in class. Check out the vowel posters available in my shop. Do you have students who require a great deal of one-to-one teaching time due to limited reading skills? These multisensory lessons are based on the principles and research of The Orton Gillingham approach, a multisensory, explicit, sequential, and cumulative approach, which incorporates over-learning and a continual review of skills. Short vowels for many students can be problematic, and require continual review and reinforcement. Please email me at ekennyfoggin@gmail.com if you have questions, or require clarification.
