How to Teach Reading&Spelling With 20MinutePhonemicTraining

Phonemic training uses speech sounds in words to teach children how words are built. If you homeschool, are an intervention specialist, a reading specialist or tutor a child who is not keeping up with school expectations when it comes to reading and spelling, then this course may be what you are looking for.  When children have a history of middle ear fluid or infection, slow or delayed speech development, this often affects reading and spelling rate and accuracy later in school.   When we teach them how to hear the individual sounds in words by feeling the sounds and hearing the differences between them first, then match the sounds to letters, it makes a huge difference in understanding the printed word.  After all, letters are PICTURES of sounds.  Children understand the idea that pictures represent something else.    While I do admit that I am not an entertainer, I am thorough and detailed when showing you what to do.  If you are a professional, some of what is presented will seem way to easy, but the resources are practical and the system is streamlined for children who need shorter lessons that keep them engaged.  If you are a parent and this is all new to you, especially in this time of virtual school, then the slower pace with step by step  instruction should simplify the process of understanding.  No Guesswork here!  The course is based upon the publication "Winning Solutions for Struggling Readers and Spellers" found on Amazon.  Research supporting the methods in the course is listed in the publication and the website for the publication.

This course is for people who want to improve their student's [son or daughter's] literacy skills  using less time both within the school day and outside of the school day.

A high percentage of public schools are finding literacy development challenging. 25% of the population in the United States read below 4th grade level. Schools are increasing budgets, adding intervention specialists and reading tutors to address the problem, and the specialists are vying with classroom teachers for time to provide remedial instruction.  The result is that everyone is frustrated by  constantly changing, complicated daily schedules and limited success for their efforts.

Teachers, Intervention Specialists and Reading Tutors are spending increasing amounts of time outside of the school day planning, preparing materials and reviewing student progress.  Parents are frustrated by slow progress.  Homeschooling parents are searching for ways to help their children become more fluent readers and writers.

I have used the materials and strategies taught here with many, many children over the past 30 years.  All of them made progress.  Most reached grade level or near grade level expectations within one to two years, if not sooner when they stayed with me the whole time.   When given three lessons a week, it is not unusual to see rapid change within 3 months.  The key is to be consistent about doing the lessons and staying with the lessons to the end.
