Tips 1) Use photos without text – students pick what
they want (pointing, eye gaze, partner scanning) (e.g., burrito vs. pizza)
2) Eat the elephant in small bites – limited letters from the full alphabet (e.g., AlphaBoard with cover up; 1 line of the
alphabet flip chart; 5 letters on computer or device keyboard)
>'A5$L&$/(!"$<A'.!
• AlphaBoard with cover-up; student chose picture of ‘pizza’ – now trying to find the letter that starts pizza • Use ‘evaluative feedback’ - Student points to S; partner says ‘That would be ‘sizza’. We’re looking for ‘pizza’ <pause> - Student points to P; partner says - ‘/p/ - pizza’ – yes, we need a P for pizza! Tip: April, 2011 www.aacintervention.com

Word Sorts - A Place to Begin • A great way teach students about the common visual
elements in words
• Reinforces what students have learned about the alphabetic principle
• Build upon knowledge of personally relevant words with spelling patterns: Nick / cat
• As soon as students understand the visual sorting process, begin getting them to sort words based on phonological similarities before checking visually.
Common Rimes (aka: word families)
(Wylie & Durrell, 1970)
Wylie & Durrell Tip on CD!
Visual Word Sorts • Visual word sorts emphasize the orthographic
processor.
• Step 1: Select two key words the student knows that have a common spelling pattern ( at - pick)
• Step 2: Make sure student can read the two key words.
• Step 3: Show student a word that has the same spelling pattern as one of the key words.
• Step 4: Ask the student to indicate which key word has the same spelling pattern as the new word. Compare/Contrast the two words.

J?n.
Correlational studies have identified phonemic awareness and letter knowledge as two of the best school-entry predictors of how well children will learn to read during their first 2 years in school .

Is PA a Prerequisite? • the activities that seem to lead most strongly to the development of phonemic awareness are those involved in learning how to read and spell" (1990, p. 331)...
