Does your child or yourself struggle with reading, writing, and even speaking?

People with Dyslexia have a sound and language as well can be visual processing deficiency. Related to the absorption and processing of sounds especially can be omitted from words spoken by the student, students with dyslexia most commonly omit letter sounds, words, phrases in the middle position, then the end, and least commonly the beginning. When they omit, they might do repetition(s), substitution(s), addition(s) or delete altogether, on the other hand; transversal and reversal are more common in students with a visual processing problem. Because dyslexia cannot be cured, students can develop tools and strategies to help their working memory, phonological awareness, reading, and spelling.

After Mastered Phonics I: https://lookingtohealourownlearningdifference.org/2020/11/07/dyslexia-help-phonics-cook-t-2020/
Summary of Stages of Literacy Development
| Beginning | Early | Intermediate/ Advanced | Notes: |
| phase: “Sound Level” Sounds in Isolation (Words offered in program) | phase: “Word Level” Words in Isolation Choral, Echo Read, Cloze Read on Instructional Level | phase: “Phrases & Sentences Level” Independent Reading |
Intermediate/Advanced
Advanced Phonics (Phonology):
| Three Plus (+) Letter Blends (Triblends)- https://quizlet.com/join/D2d32KyHW | |||
| ex. str-stripe | ce, cy, ly (vowel +) | Yst- sneaky y | Vowel plus Lazy l/n |
| sch- school squ-square scr-scream spr-spruce | -ace/race, place -duce/ spruce ice, icy, lacy, spacy, spicy, pricy cycle holy, joly | cyst, myst | -genial, global, admiral Adrenal, elemental -pretzel, angels |
| air | ear | ng (vowel + ng) | |
| air- hair, stair are- hare, glare | ear- hear, stear ere- here, | ang eng ung ong ing |
Decoding: CVVC- TOUCH-FINGER-TO-TABLE Write individual sounds on the line, write whole word while on the line while touch finger to table. NOTE: look at Dyslexia Screening to see which letter is normally dropped, before writing have the student WATCH OUT for that Letter Position.
| sh | are |
| What I discovered: are says /air/ |
9) Phonological Awareness (Morphology):
The rules and sounds reviewed from the intermediate phonics. Note: accept concepts for word definitions. Also, prefix/suffix colored- blue and root colored- red. You can look these up with the (-) into Webster’s Dictionary App. Note: Prefix gives Meaning, Root gives Recognition and Suffix for Part-of-Speech! See appendix for prompt. NOTE: WORDS- words come from the student’s own language and background knowledge! They can come from their dialogue/speech, reading, and writing! Not from a list of preset words (usually), focus heavily on nouns and verbs initially. Modeled reading and writing are important at this level! (Text or email me asking for “distinction sound” video and updated Quizlet link). WATCH out! Never stop going over Phonological Awareness (included in phonemic awareness) with students with dyslexia, just make it more advanced!

10) Vocabulary: Always begin and stay on nouns and verbs until 90% mastery. Also, nouns colored- red, verbs colored- blue. See appendix for prompt. Note: always treat like a sight word so the main focus is meaning, recognition and pronunciation! Lastly, put the new word in a sentence, preferably related to the student and encourage them to use the word again!
During the real-read, fill out with the student this GO…say to them, you can make or draw this GO yourself. It is visual and broken down for which is good for your brain.
| intro./conclusion | Fact 1 | Fact 2 | Fact 3 |
| -downward force (gravity), upward (lift) | forward force (thrust) | downward due to gravity | wing creates lower pressure |
| downward gravitational force- less upward lift | backward force (drag) | increases with the mass (weight) | upward force known as lift |
Encoding: Sound dots go Ready set Read…1, 2, 3, READ (remember count the letters then count the sounds).

High Frequency Phrases Due to working memory- Have student read out loud (http://www.timrasinski.com/presentations/fry_600_instant_phrases.pdf) what they want to write while counting on their fingers the number of words, with the opposite hand have them touch their finger to the table each time they write on the words!! Gradually, this will increase their working memory for such phrases as well as confidence.
Note: high-quality writing depends on good transcription skills (see HERE), working memory (HERE), and executive function—all of which can be difficult for children with dyslexia and result in poor spelling (HERE) and low overall writing quality (HERE) (see HERE).
Dictating (Transcription) Sentences: Students to use their spelling skills in a “real world” application. Simply put, you say a phrase or sentence containing their spelling words, and students repeat it and write it down (see above- under learn more here).
Comprehension- Learning- comprehension (understanding) why look different than typical learning? The goal is independence, understanding through apply-evaluation (GOs)/mnemonic methods (if needed), and recreating! See major points below:
| Interest Related | Need the why |
| research what they need (based off their list) | apply- what is only needed model evaluation |
| own materials | breathing methods |
| If asked- I do, we do, you do | cross lateral exercises |
| I- focus on evaluation | change environment every 15 min |
| Reinforce Whole | mnemonic methods and graphic organizers |
Key: Go to Strategies
Spelling Clues & Reading Rules: Have them read passage, if they mispronounce word(s) “look up” definition and “fix up” with applying the spelling clues and rules below:
Passage- ReadWorks: https://www.readworks.org/; Blinkist: https://www.blinkist.com; https://www.websiteplanet.com/blog/learn-english-free-books/.
| Passage | Words | Definition | Spelling Clues/Reading Rules |
| tutor look ahead for “word review”- predict problems to increase success track with finger when reading read all titles check your vowel, and hold the vowel doesn’t look right and/or sound right then, reread or rewrite word chunking aka phrase reading (3-4 words) vocabulary- do you recognize any part of the word, cover last then first- later, split in middle | sentence grouping- goal to STOP every (5-6), (7-8) sentences do L-V Skills- Listening-Visual Skills L- who, where, when, what, how, why V- image, imaging moving in head- like a “movie” (VISW) visualize, image, say-aloud, write) Phrase-sentence form thinking always check your writing |
Practice: On the front of a note card, write down the “fix up” words. On the back of the card, write this prompt at the top and stop every 3-4 sentences to add the answer to the note card!
Materials Needed: book, writing utensils, note cards!

| Compare: Be sure to…. Identify and assess key similarities and differences based on: Importance Behavior Quality Function |
| Analyze: Be sure to… Consider what the text/results mean based on critical reading or observation Interpret from multiple perspectives |

| Connection: Be sure to… Ask has this happened to me or someone else before? How does this remind you of another text, yourself and the world? What do already know about the topic? |
