Below is a list of
ways to teach reading and writing. Reading & Writing Teaching Methods. From dyslexiaMyLife.org
Phonology and
Phonological Awareness: Phonology is the
study of sounds and how they work within their environment. A phoneme is the smallest unit of sound in a
given language that can be recognized as being distinct from other sounds in
the language. Phonological awareness is
the understanding of the internal linguistic structure of words. An important aspect of phonological awareness
is phonemic awareness, or the ability to segment words into their component
sounds.
Whole Word
The person is taught to remember each word shape and
sound the word makes, with no decoding. It's not the best way to learn to read and
write. The cheapest way to teach.
Sound-Symbol
Association: This is the knowledge of
the various sounds in the English language and their correspondence to the
letters and combinations of letters which represent those sounds. Sound-symbol association must be taught (and
mastered) in two directions: visual to auditory and auditory to visual. Additionally, students must master the
blending of sounds and letters into words as well as the segmenting of whole
words into individual sounds.
Syllable Instruction: A syllable is a unit of oral or written language with
one vowel sound. Instruction must include teaching of the six basic syllable
types in the English language: closed, vowel-consonant-e, open, consonant-le,
r-controlled, and diphthong. Syllable
division rules must be directly taught in relation to word structure.
Morphology: Morphology is the study of how morphemes are combined
from words. A morpheme is the smallest
unit of meaning in the language. The
curriculum must include the study of base words, roots, prefixes, and suffixes.
Syntax: Syntax is the set of principles that dictate the
sequence and function of words in a sentence in order to convey meaning. This includes grammar, sentence variation,
and the mechanics of language.
Semantics: Semantics is that aspect of language concerned with
meaning. The curriculum (from the
beginning) must include instruction in the comprehension of written language.
Simultaneous,
Multisensory (VAKT): Teaching is done
using all learning pathways in the brain (visual/auditory, kinesthetic-tactile)
simultaneously in order to enhance memory and learning.
Systematic and
Cumulative: Multisensory language
instruction requires that the organization of material follows the logical
order of the language. The sequence must
begin with the easiest and most basic elements and progress methodically to
more difficult material. Each step must
also be based on those already learned.
Concepts taught must be systematically reviewed to strengthen memory.
Direct Instruction: The inferential learning of any concept cannot be taken
for granted. Multisensory language
instruction requires the direct teaching of all concepts with continuous
student-teacher interaction.
Diagnostic Teaching: The teacher must be adept at prescriptive or
individualized teaching. The teaching
plan is based on careful and continuous assessment of the individual’s
needs. The content presented must be
mastered to the degree of automaticity.
Synthetic and
Analytic Instruction: Multisensory,
structured language programs include both synthetic and analytic
instruction. Synthetic instruction
presents the parts of the language and then teaches how the parts work together
to form a whole. Analytic instruction
presents the whole and teaches how this can be broken down into its component
parts.
