Description
Grouping words by their sounds - rather than letters - can be a much more effective tool when teaching students how to read and spell.
By learning the sounds and spelling patterns, students are empowered to read unfamiliar words - which results in increased independence.
A Sound Wall can play a key role as they learn these fundamental patterns because it:
- provides explicit instruction of phonemes.
- focuses on building orthographic mapping.
- allows students to always have an area to review.
- provides a visual reference for students.
- improves spelling because it promotes a reference to the spelling pattern (rather than telling students how words are spelled.)
- improves decoding skills when reading because they will start recognizing the reading codes.
