Reading Intervention for Struggling Readers: Book 6
Special Resources, ELA, Special Education Needs (SEN), Language Development, Pre-Reading, Phonics, Reading, Preschool, Grade 1, 2, 3, 4, Literacy Readers, Teacher Tools

This Reading Intervention for Struggling Readers: Book 6 helps children to use their knowledge of common digraphs to read longer passages and apply their phonic knowledge to new vocabulary. This book is the sixth in a series of books written to provide intervention for struggling readers using decodable reading books, written to build confidence and help the child attain fluency. This book is useful for reading intervention for older pupils, maybe even of 11+ who are struggling to read fluently, but who have a smattering of phonic knowledge but with gaps. It revises CK and OO words adding more commonly used decodable vocabulary giving the child a familiar base on which to build It follows: Book 1 CVC Words Book 2 Consonant Blends Words Book 3 More Consonant Blends Words Book 4 CK word Book 5 OO Words Who is this book for? Older pupils who can read, but who have a reading age well below their chronological age. Such children may struggle to read simple text with accuracy/fluency and thereby lack comprehension. It is not for pupils who are just beginning to read with phonics. Please see my Graded reading books for such pupils. It is convenient enough for parents to use with their children and for use by teachers and private tutors. Outline and steps Having secured a child's blending skills with three and four sounds in books 1 to 3, and practised CK and OO words, we now start to extend the child's ability to decode new words using common digraphs. Assess the whole time as the child reads: if the child stumbles on a word, make a note to revise that phonic sound before continuing to the next book. As these children are not beginners, we now add words ending in /et/ (e.g. packet) and past tense words: rock - rocked. these should be studied before reading this book. I find that often these children need help distinguishing between similar words, such as back and black, and by retraining the child to read accurately using these simple texts - that do not look babyish - and then rebuilding from the bottom up, much progress can be made. I thought that my pupils would look with disdain at these books. I found the opposite; they were so relieved that at last somebody had actually given them a book they could read! Simply print on A4 paper, two on a page. Cut into individual A5 pages, and staple or bind them together to make a book. Purpose These books have been written and tried and tested on some of my older pupils (mainly boys I admit), and they have proved very helpful. Most of my pupils have a dyslexic type problem, involving poor processing skills and have had years of failure. They must build a secure foundation for reading ability to build upon. These books, used as described, will help to build that foundation. I am finding an increasing number of such pupils desperate for help. You can help, too! It is not hard; you just need to understand the problem a little. What is included? 1 pdf with 16 pages, 4 reading passages and 4 fluency charts.

Create a city with this packet. You and your students can jumpstart a "create a city" project. Tons of templates will help your class through the process of designing the layout of their very own city. Build paper roads, businesses, homes, parks, and more. This resource also includes some additional, optional learning experiences including discussing and completing a worksheet about how to select a mayor for your city , writing instructions for finding your way through a city, following rules about city infrastructure laid out in the challenge cards, and practice writing city ordinances. Your students are going to expand on this project and that’s the best part! This will jumpstart their creativity and challenge and motivate them to do more! This packet provides a starting place for your class- but let your imagination run wild! This project took over 3 hours for my students and they loved every minute of it! I get the same feedback from every teacher who has bought it- one of the best resources they ever used in their classroom, a memory maker, and so much fun! How To Use This: Look through all the options and print plenty for your students. Equip your students with scissors, glue, and coloring tools. It’s easiest to let them design and glue onto a posterboard but you could get more creative and cover a wall or hallway with butcher paper.
