Tune in to discover a streamlined 3-part lesson plan for brand new beginning readers.
Snag a free week of lesson plans, too!
See how fast a beginner can move with activities that integrate multiple skills simultaneously. In addition, watch for a video segment of a 4 year-old learning how to read with one of her first times using Build It, a key activity for brand-new beginners.
I wish I could make it, but I have a meeting tonight at 6pm.
Thanks for letting me know, Ginger. š You can come back later for the replay here on the Facebook page…
My students loved to read the text to other students!
Glad to “see” you Lisa! I’d love to chat to hear about this new year!
I have some low first grade friends this year. I think this will help some. Thank you!
Awesome! So eager to hear Cheryl…
Go for it!!
Of course
yes we can hear it
Yes
I have a question:
Do you do the auditory processing of sounds when segmenting words?
So segment sat using color cubes but no visual of letters?
Do you feel thatās too difficult?
Do you have any tips and tricks if you do do that strategy?
My son struggles with segmenting on his own
He knows phonemes and is starting to blend
But segmenting on his own
Initial medial and final sound is hard for him, even if the phonemes are right in front of him
If I’m understanding you correctly, you’re asking if just separating a word into phonemes without letter-sound visual support?
I typically don’t see a need because a student can handle both phonemic awareness and phonics knowledge instruction in the context of Build It or Switch It. Combining them gets you more bang for your instructional buck
I’d try this activity Build It for that issue. Click he title in the free PDF download for more info on Build It. Or, try Switch It soon, which is harder and more powerful: ReadingSimplified.com/integrate-dont-isolate
Thatās what I was thinking too
I notice a lot of Kinder and first grade teachers do this
They present a picture … and have the students figure out how many phonemes are in the word by colored tiles with no visual support…
Do you do this later on? Or do you see the need?
Itās a auditory processing skill but my son struggles with that anyway and Iām hoping he could gain that skill later but Iām all about making it as kinesthetic as possible
Yes!! Thank you ?
Thank you for the weekly lesson plan. I’ve been trying to do too many words and feeling overwhelmed. (BTW – I really wanted to watch live… logged in and realized I was 3 hours late!)
Ha! Better late than never. Glad this redirect helps. Bonnie!
Sorry Iām late
No worries! Glad you made it Krista!
Yes please for lesson plans
Yes !
Patrice Headd Stutzenberger I really like this approach-this particular video might be good for your peeps
Cool …. I’ll check it out!! Thanks ?
Thanks for the share Deb!!
Yes, lesson plans ty
Sure1
go for it! š
Go for it.
build it worked good for me this summer with low kindergartners. I am going to try it with a couple of my guided reading groups this year.
Tami, great report!! Thanks for sharing. Good luck with those groups!
yes to lesson plan
Can I print it if my children homeschool
Agnes, anyone is welcome
to use all our resources! Hope it helps!!
So maybe learning end sounds should be first?
Hmmm…I wouldn’t think so. I may have misspoken. I think I meant that when kids are learning to blend in the context of Read It–that the end sounds of the word are easier to blend. But the letter sounds are not necessarily easier to learn to memorize in that position.
Yes, I would like the lesson plans
Yes!
