An Effective, Affordable Solution for Building Early Reading SkillsFrequently Asked QuestionsWhy do we need this programwhen our basal already hasa phonics strand?Your teachers can use TeachingPhonics as an enrichment resource foron- and below-level students or as anacceleration for above-level students.The reproducible student pages and250 interactive whiteboard activitiesprovide engaging opportunities fortargeted practice. Teachers can assignthe ready-made learning centersor independent practice pages forhomework or use them for reteachingand remediation.Is Teaching Phonics researchbased?Are there assessments so weknow the instruction is working?Yes, an assessment is provided foreach major set of skills in the binder(for example, short-vowel assessment,long-vowel assessment). Teachers canadminister the assessment after finishingthat section to determine if students areready to take on the next set of skills.The assessments can also be used todetermine where in the materials to startindividual students.Can we use this programin PreK–K classrooms?If you’re looking for extended letter-workinstruction only, your teachers shouldconsider using Teaching the Alphabet,PreK–K, instead (see back cover). Forkindergarten teachers who want to makethe transition to decodable, connectedtext as quickly as possible, TeachingPhonics is a better match.Yes, the materials in this resource offer aresearch-based, systematic, and explicitapproach to phonics instruction. It’s asystematic program in that the materialscan be used in sequence. It’s explicitbecause the lessons provide teachers withdirect and actual language to use whileHow do we use this program inteaching.first grade? Or second grade?Will this program help usmeet the Common Core StateStandards?Absolutely, and your specific statereading and language arts standards, too.For more information, see page 10.Does Teaching Phonics supportguided reading?Teaching Phonics is an ideal resource forguided reading classrooms. Learn howon page 11.Or third grade?Most first graders are ready to jumpright in to simple decoding so teacherscan start with the short-vowel lessons.Grade 2 teachers may want to quicklyreview previously taught skills, then assiststudents in making the transition fromreading one-syllable to multisyllabicwords. By third grade, teachers canfocus attention on word study withlessons that include the six syllabletypes or use the resource to deliversmall-group instruction for studentswho are struggling.ABOUT WILEYBLEVINSWiley Blevins is aHarvard Universitytrained readingspecialist andformer elementaryteacher.

First come the ABC’s . . .Alphabet lessons and routinesthat build skills and automaticityTo become skilled readers, children must be able to identify words quickly and accurately.And to do that, they need to learn the most common sound-spelling relationships,beginning with the alphabet. The 27 alphabet units in Teaching Phonics follow an explicitsix-step process to guide teachers as they introduce students to letter-sound relationshipsand basic alphabet-recognition and decoding skills. This is just a sampling of what comeswith each unit. Opportunities for writing practice, picture-sound sorts, and storybooks arealso available as interactive whiteboard activities on the CD (see pages 8–9).Teaching Phonics’ explicit six-step processfor teaching the alphabet:1 PRACTICE PHONEMIC AWARENESS.Teaching the Letter: AaIWBInteractiveWhiteboardActivitiesSee Instructional Routines, pages 25–28, for additional lesson details and support.IWB This icon indicates that the CD includes an interactive whiteboard versionof the activity that can be used for small-group or whole-class learning.1Practice Phonemic Awareness: Have children say /a/ every time theyhear a word that begins with the /a/ sound. (Note: The word lists that followinclude distractors.) Say: at, apple, ball, add, car, on, ax. Repeat for words with /a/in the medial position. Say: man, hot, tap, bat, bed, rug, cat, sad. Extend the medialsound as you pronounce each word. Point out how the /a/ sound is made (mouthopen). Contrast with other vowel sounds, such as /o/. Have children feel thedifference in their mouths when making each sound.2Handwriting PracticeTeach the Letter Name/Sound: Tell children that the letter Aa standsfor /a/ as in apple. Then teach children the following letter chant:2 TEACH THE LETTER/NAME SOUND.Picture-Sound Sort/a/ /a/ apple.Bite that juicy apple./a/ /a/ /a/ is spelled Aa. eaching tips describe how to connect each letter to aTmnemonic chant that emphasizes the letter-sound connection.The CD includes an audio of the chant.3Write the Letter: Use Handwriting Practice: Aa, page 44, to teach childrenhow to write the upper- and lowercase forms of the letter Aa. Introduce thesound-spelling using the letter chant. Then have children say the /a/ sound each timethey write the letter. Also contrast Aa with other similar letters (a-d, a-o). Point out thestroke differences between the confusing letter pairs. IWBStorybook4Sort by Letter/Sound: Use Picture-Sound Sort: Aa, page 45, to havechildren sort pictures whose names contain /a/ in the initial and medialpositions. (Answers: Beginning—alligator, ambulance, ant, apple, astronaut, ax;Medial—bag, bat, cat, fan, map, pan) IWB3 WRITE THE LETTER.ABC Caterpillar5Connect to Reading: Distribute copies of Storybook: What Am I?,page 46.

Then come phonics and word study. . .Phonics lessons and routinesthat jumpstart readingOnce students have mastered the alphabet, the focus is on building phonics andword study skills. An explicit nine-step process leads teachers through each ofthe 27 phonics units, including short vowels, consonant blends and digraphs, long vowels,and complex vowels. They’re followed by 14 word study lessons, which vary slightly andinclude only seven steps. Interactive stories and activities are also available on the CDfor your whiteboard (see pages 8–9). As always, teachers should choose those activitiesthat interest them or best complement their instructional needs.Teaching Phonics’ explicit nine-step processfor teaching phonics and word study:1 INTRODUCE THE igraphs ng, nkSee Instructional Routines, pages 29–32, for additional lesson details and support.IWB This icon indicates that the CD includes an interactive whiteboard versionof the activity that can be used for small-group or whole-class learning.1Build WordsIntroduce the Sound-Spelling: Tell children that when the letters ngand nk appear together in a word, they stand for new sounds—the /ng/ soundin ring and the /ngk/ sounds in pink. Write the letters ng and nk on the board. Havechildren write the spellings several times as they say the sounds each stands for.2Model Blending: Write the words rig, ring, king, ban, bank, and sink on theboard. Model blending the words sound by sound. Run your finger undereach letter or spelling as you say the sound(s). Emphasize the sound(s) of ng and nkin words containing either digraph spelling. Have children repeat.Sound-Spelling Word SortSpell WordsInteractive Story3Blend Words: Use Blend Words: Digraphs ng, nk, page 293, to have childrenchorally blend the words on each line.
