Recording of Marianne Nice, MS, CCC-SLP : Beyond CVC – Training Upper Level Word Reading and Spelling Webinar

Older students who struggle with literacy need your help! Completely aligned with the Science of Reading, this unique session should not be missed if you are working with struggling students who are beyond consonant – vowel- consonant level  words.  If you have struggling students from elementary school –age through adult, who are now beyond simple consonant-vowel-consonant type syllables, this fast-paced, information –packed session is for you!  This session is for special educators, general education teachers, speech language pathologists, reading specialists, or parents looking for key research-based strategies to add to their repertoire of literacy tools and techniques.  Proven strategies will be shared within the following upper level skill areas that are necessary for successful reading and spelling:

Because the ability to decode longer words is often the major difference between good and poor readers, mnemonic techniques for dividing multisyllable words to determine the vowel sounds will be shown. The presenter will also delve into morphology, with basic activities for training reading,  spelling, and the meanings of longer words containing using prefixes, roots, and suffixes.  Special techniques will be demonstrated for training acquisition of phonetically irregular sight words such as “what,” and “come, ” since fluent reading is dependent upon the ability to quickly read these difficult-to-learn words. Many different types of strategies will be shared including some showing the use of Reading with TLC resources.
