PHONICS INTERVENTIONS

LEARNING TARGETS

I can identify which program to use for phonics interventions.

I can plan a phonics lesson. I know which interventions can be

incorporated into the 90 minute block.

ELI STRATEGIES

WHAT IS PHONICS?Phonological Awareness

Phonics

Ability to recognize the sounds of spokenlanguage and how sounds can be blended together, segmented, and manipulated.

AUDITORYInvolves sound.Tasks can be done with the eyes closed if not using manipulatives.Examples: Ask children to listen to each

sound in the word /m/ /a/ /n/ and say the word man.

Say the word /man/. Ask children to say each sound they hear in the word: /m/ /a/ /n/.Focuses on the sounds of spoken language and how they can be blended, segmented, and manipulated.Provides the basis for understanding thealphabetic principle and lays the foundation for phonics and spelling.

An instructional approach that links thesounds of spoken language to printed letters.

GRAPHOPHONEMICInvolves sound and print.Tasks involve looking at print.Examples: Write the word man on the board.

Ask children to say each sound in the word and blend the sounds together to read the word: /mmaann/.

Ask children to listen to each sound in

a word and spell the word using letter tiles.Shows how the sounds of spokenlanguage are represented by letters andspellings.Helps children begin to read and to spellwords.

THE DOS OF PHONICS INSTRUCTION Use a logical sequence for introducing or

reviewing sounds.First sounds, then words, then connected text.

Provide daily practice. Keep lessons brief, fast paced, and

focused. Cover only a small segment at a time.

Correct errors immediately. Provide a built-in review of previously

taught sound-spellings or spelling patterns in each lesson (through blending exercises, repeated readings, etc). Eternal review!

THE DOS OF PHONICS INSTRUCTION

Use data to guide your instruction.

Adjust pace or scope according to students’ needs.

Regroup students according to their needs.

Link phonics instruction to spelling through dictation and free-writing activities.

THE DON’TS OF PHONICS INSTRUCTION

make students wait for turns

allow students to make errors

keep the learning targets a secret

use choral response, boys/girls, table teams, etc.

provide immediate feedback “That word is ____. What word?”

tell students what they are learning

Do not… Instead…

THE DON’TS (CONTINUED)…

ignore exceptions to the rules (i.e. conscientious)

use incorrect language or terminology : “You can hear the ‘f’ sound.” or “What sounds do you see at the end of mint?”

explicitly teach the words that do not fit the rules

use the correct language: “You can hear the /f/ sound.” or “What sounds do you hear at the end of mint?

Do not… Instead…

TEMPLATES

WHEN TO USE TEMPLATES

Templates are acceptable (encouraged) in the 90 minute block.

Templates can be used outside the 90 minute block as well.

Use DDS to identify which sounds need to be practiced.

Pull words from leveled readers, decodables, fresh reads, etc.

Google word lists

SYLLABOARDS

IN ORDER TO READ MULTI-SYLLABIC WORDS, STUDENTS MUST:

be able to break words into syllables orally

know that every syllable has one vowel sound

know that when one vowel is by itself (not next to another vowel), it is the only vowel in a syllable

know that when one vowel is next to another vowel, the two vowels usually stick together in the syllable and spell one vowel sound

know that when there is a silent e, the silent e works with the vowel preceding it to create its long sound.

WHEN CAN I USE SYLLABOARDS?

Inside the 90 Only spend 5-10 minutes

Outside of the 90 is fine as well

MORE SYLLABOARD IDEAS

Only use syllaboards for 5-10 minutes. This is not a complete intervention program.

Pull words to use from “Amazing Words” in 2nd grade words kids miss in progress monitoring or fresh

reads vocabulary words for the week.

Fluency will improve as students decode words faster and more accurately. These words become “sight words”.

Students will begin to learn how to break down words they read without using the cards.

PHONICS FOR READING

WHEN TO USE PHONICS FOR READING

Phonics for Reading should NOT be used in the 90 minute block.

The Phonics for Reading 30-45 minute lessons are perfect for intervention time.

READING STREET CHALKBOARDS

WHEN TO USE THE CHALKBOARDS

Yes, in the 90 minutes They can be used as an intervention if

students are struggling with a particular sound.

EXIT SLIP

Please reflect on tonight’s learning targets as you fill out the exit slip: I can identify which program to use for phonics

interventions. I can plan a phonics lesson. I know which interventions can be incorporated

into the 90 minute block.
