Dyslexia-Friendly Visual Phonics Decoding

Dyslexia-Friendly Visual Phonics Decoding
Classroom Management, Resources for Teachers, Community Building, Life Skills, Special Resources, Social Emotional Learning (SEL), Social Skills, Special Education Needs (SEN), Speech Therapy, Science, Kindergarten, Preschool, Grade 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, Worksheets & Printables, Workbooks, Worksheets, Word Searches, Teacher Tools, Lesson Plans, Quizzes and Tests, Quizzes, Tests, Assessments

If your students have difficulty with b/d reversals, visual crowding, or reading anxiety, phonics worksheets often do not work for kids who are neurodivergent because they create a cognitive overload situation. The Visual Phonics Decoding Program is a complete no-frills paradigm shift in reading interventions. Using the proprietary Visuo-Phonological Anchor Model (VPAM), this program creates a connection between auditory processing and the visual-spatial pathways, enabling students (first, second and third graders) to develop automaticity when decoding. The Visual Phonics Decoding packet also follows the principles of the Science of Reading and the cognitive principle of Orthographic Mapping and removes unnecessary visual distractions and replaces them with structured visual anchors. What’s Being Offered In Our 25 Page Complete PDF? Educator Theory and Implementation Manual: A deep dive into the Neurological Structure of Dyslexic Reading, Double-Deficit Hypothesis, and Orthographic Mapping with practical application chapters. Actual Case Studies with Practical Application: Profiles to show how to use these methods with Early Elementary School-Aged Children. Intervention Worksheet Series: Intervention worksheets have been developed utilizing Typographic Grounding, Chromatic Categorization and Spatial Bounding principles. Medial Short Vowels (CVC orthography), Consonant Digraphs (sh, ch, th, wh, ck), Initial Consonant Blends. Teacher Reference Materials/Visual Aids: Contains Visual Aids for Cognitive Orthographic Mapping Protocol and the anatomy of a Dyslexic Friendly Worksheet. Complete Answer Keys and Formative Assessment Protocols. Great For Special Education (SPED) Tier II and Tier III Reading Intervention, Home Schooling & Orton Gillingham Compatible Teaching Methods. Help struggling readers to stop guessing and to have the confidence to code words correctly using decoding! Reasons that Parents/Schools Appreciate It: Elimination of Visual Clutter: Heavy bottom, sans serif fonts, and greater spacing are used strategically to help identify and prevent visual representation of b, d, p, q from being represented as flipping or floating through space. Working Memory Limitations are Bypassed: Students are able to visually lock into a vowel team or digraph without being overwhelmed by using the use of Chromatic Anchor System and bounding boxes. No Fluff & No Distractions: All worksheets were specifically created to conserve as much of a dyslexic child's cognitive energy as possible. Therefore, no clip art, decorative art, or unnecessary instructions are contained to help conserve any cognitive energy from teaching a child to read. Creates Teacher and Parent Power: Also, all worksheets have a clear and complete "Educator Rationales" so parents and teachers can better understand the rationale and methodology for teaching their children. Gives Children the opportunity to Create True Orthographic Mapping: Children are prevented from memorizing and guessing from the visual image or picture, therefore, they are developing the skills to accurately map sounds to letters, which is the basis for long-term efficiency when it comes to reading. Target Audiences: Identify your target audience based on the curriculum's own Tiered Decoding Progression Model (pg. 22) and Introduction (pg. 1). Target Specifically: Grade Levels: 1st, 2nd, and 3rd. Audience: Students with a diagnosis of Dyslexia, students exhibiting signs of reading anxiety, children who are guessing at reading, children struggling with traditional written Phonics, as well as neurodivergent children from all backgrounds. Skills: Students needing support with CVC (consonant-vowel-consonant) words, students needing support with consonant digraphs (sh, ch, th) and students needing support with initial consonant blends. Buyers: Special Education Teachers, Reading Interventionists, Parents Home Schooling, General Education/Primary School Teachers.

Octopus Research and Writing Project for K-2nd Graders. Engage young students in reading, writing, and science with this 19-page octopus research and writing project. Ideal for kindergarteners, 1st graders, and 2nd graders, this cross-curricular resource can be used for whole group instruction, small groups, or individual assignments. The project begins with real-life photos of the octopus to capture students' interest. Appropriately leveled informational text teaches students about the octopus' appearance, habitat, diet, and other facts. A color coding system helps students organize the information as they read.

Help your autistic learners thrive in the classroom and beyond with this complete sensory diet toolkit that will allow you to create a sensory diet for each learner. If you're a parent, educator, or therapist who feels lost when trying to understand the sensory processing issues of young autistic learners and are looking for a way to go beyond reactionary approaches to create an environment that is neuro-affirming, this is the toolkit for you! The 35-page guide was created by professionals who understand the challenges faced by preschool through 1st grade educators and provides clear, easy-to-follow instructions to create, implement and track an effective sensory diet. This is more than just worksheets; it is a complete evidence-based professional development program helping you develop your skills as a sensory detective using evidence-based data. What’s Included in This Evidence-Based Toolkit: Phase 1: Comprehensive Theory & Methodology (10 Pages) : This section offers a thorough guide detailing the neurobiology of sensory overstimulation, the often-overlooked senses such as proprioception, vestibular awareness, and interoception. Additionally, it covers fundamental concepts regarding a sensory diet and features case studies to enhance practical understanding. Phase 2: Student Workbook & Facilitator Tracking Tools (17 Pages) : This part comprises a collection of 11 clinical-grade worksheets intended for educators and parents to monitor, assess, and address sensory needs. These tools include: - Tracker for Sensory Baseline & Arousal State - Guides for Proprioceptive, Vestibular, and Tactile "Brain Breaks" - Early Warning Signs Tracker for Overstimulation - Audit Checklist for Classroom Environmental Triggers - "My Body Feels..." Interoception Check-In with an accompanying visual chart designed for students! - And much more! In this section of the Toolkit there are important visual representations and other teaching materials to provide you with what you need for an effective system of Supports. Phase 3: includes visual representation(s) of the "Escalation & Intervention Cycle" (Examples: Conceptual Diagrams - for use in understanding the steps in the Cycle). - "Brain Break Taxonomy" flowchart - allowing you to tie interventions to specific behaviours in the Escalation Cycle. - Teacher Implementation Guide, with details on how to implement the components of the toolkit as well as a neurodiversity-affirming perspective. - Model Documentation - showing you how to complete trackers for maximum effect. The contents of your Toolkit will help you transition from "Behaviour Management" (i.e. behaviour modification techniques/strategies) to "Neurological Support" (ie supporting learners by providing specific tools & strategies for self-regulation) through concrete examples identifying the root causes of behaviours, preventing crises before they happen and teaching learners through respectful means." Reasons That Parents/Schools Appreciate It: Proactive vs Reactive: Rather than only reacting to incidents of sensory overload or meltdowns, it provides a data-based system for helping to identify causes of the issue and preventing future occurrences through additional data tracking tools. All-in-one vs completing multiple worksheets: This program is designed as a complete curriculum including theory, tracking, intervention and teacher guides. All resources are provided in one location, reducing the burden on the parent and/or educator having to independently find and create all the resources. Creates Consistency in Support throughout Home/School: The program has been designed to provide tools that can be used and shared between home and school, providing a system of support for the child, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Empowering and approves of Neurodiversity: The program promotes the understanding and support of a child’s neurological needs with dignity and respect thereby eliminating the need to use antiquated methods of behavior modification. Immediate Implementation: The program was designed for immediate use in a real-world situation with written and sample instructions included; therefore, it is easy for all educators to implement new strategies into day-to-day teaching. Depending on the content and language used in the PDF, the target audience should be: Grade Level: Pre-K, Kindergarten, and First Grade (in particular, the age range of 4-7 years old). Primary Audience: Special Education Teachers, Occupational Therapists , School Psychologists, Board Certified Behaviour Analysts with a Neurological Understanding of Autism (would find guide useful). Inclusion Classroom General Education Teachers Paraprofessionals, Teacher Aides, Support Staff (including training/employment opportunities) Secondary Audience: Inclusion Classroom Teachers—General Education Knowledgeable and Engaged Parents of Autistic Students who are involved in their child's Sensory Plan and collaborating with the school team.

Reasons Parents & Educators Appreciate It: • Transforms labels of “unmotivated” or “distracted” students into real, visible, employer-ready micro-credentials that significantly increase retention rate after employment (example: retention rates went from 60% to 88% in a single year). • Comes with teacher keys; student worksheets; and pre-made templates to make implementation take only minutes instead of months (no longer create resources from scratch). • Uses affirming language that respects students' neurodiversity; allows schools to have an established, professional portfolio to provide to employers and IEP teams. • Uses a hybrid model of digital and printable content - all learning styles and budgets are accommodated; schools love the built-in assessment rubrics and portfolio defense scripts. • Quickly bridges the gap between school and the workplace; parents know that real-world skills (i.e. self-advocacy script; sensory anchors; Plan B matrix) will continue to be used even after high school graduation. Target Student Populations (Identification by PDF Analyses): These curricula were specifically designed for neurodivergent youth between 14 to 22 years of age (IDEA transition services) and are intended to be used in the following educational settings: • Special Education/Inclusion Classrooms, Grades 9-12 • Post-Secondary Transition Vocational Rehabilitation, 18 to 22 • Autism Spectrum Disorder Support and Transition Programming • ADHD/Executive Dysfunction focused Life Skills/Work-Study Programming • Community Based Adult Transition Programs, ages 18 to 22 Not for elementary/middle school; does NOT include general education environments without a neurodivergent focus. Designed for students experiencing difficulties with initiating tasks, time-blindness, sensory overload, or navigating the "hidden curriculum" within an employment environment.

This fossils reading comprehension with lesson plan includes: Visualization (on the front cover) Start your lesson by taking a minute to think and share something about the topic. Read the script aloud (slowly), perhaps prepare some music or sound effects. Student close their eyes and let their imaginations wander. Students open their eyes, read the question aloud and give them a few minutes to complete. Ask a few students to share or keep answers until the end to compare with what they learn in the passage. Quick pause—thousands of Cored Education products are included with your TeachSimple membership. Download links and encyclopedia index available here. Pre-Reading Trivia Students will write down one thing they already know about the subject and then read five more facts and discuss. These facts are fun, and the students will enjoy learning about the subject before reading more. Give 1 minute for students to write what they already know (no pressure—best guess is fine). Read the five facts together. After each fact, do ask a student for their opinion, was it surprising? Set a purpose by asking students to highlight/underline one fact they want to learn more about during the reading. Reading Passage The text is a high-interest reading passage with set paragraphs, roughly three to four paragraphs long. It contains a variety of themes about the topic, anywhere from history to technology. The passage is between 250 and 350 words in length. First, ask students to look at the headings and see what they’ll learn about today. What do they know about the topic/heading? First read options: Teacher read-aloud (best for support). Partner reading (paragraph by paragraph). While reading, students underline important details, and vocabulary words they think may come up in the questions section. Mixed Questions The first question page contains four multiple-choice questions, each with a choice of four answers, and three written response questions that require a sentence or two from the student. Students complete the mcqs first independently, then review quickly as a class. For the 3 written responses, try to get students giving the answer with some form of evidence: “I think ___ because the text says ___.” If students get stuck, send them back to check the passage. Vocabulary Questions Practice seven key words from the text in this section across two activities. First section is scrambled words where students will unscramble three words given a clue for each. The second section is a word to meaning matching activity. Before starting, have some students read out words they underlined in the passage. Ask students to say the word and read aloud the sentence(s) around each word. Ask students to do scrambled words and the matching exercise in pairs then go through answers as a class. For the scrambled spelling task, get four pairs to come up to the board and write the words for extra practice with the other student reading out the clue. For the matching task, prompt students to give full sentences: “I matched ___ with ___ because ___.” Creative Writing In this question, the student will be required to write a five to eight sentence paragraph on a question related to the topic. Before starting, ask students write down 3 key ideas they are going to include in their piece. Ask students for ideas to share around the class to help those struggling. Pro writing expectations: 5–8 sentences At least 2 facts or details from the passage At least 2 vocabulary words from the previous page Students read their paragraphs while classmates listen for facts and vocabulary words. Extension Activities This page is optional for fast finishers or to take home. There are several activities, each one requiring a different skill. Do some, do none, do all, completely optional - but you will feel reassured knowing every possibility is planned for. Includes summary writting question and additional facts. Answer Key There are answers for the multiple-choice questions, written response questions have sample answers, vocabulary answers and if there is a summary question then a sample summary will be provided as well. Lesson Plan Included Customized lesson plan for this lesson is included. Lesson Snapshot Title: Fossils Genre: Nonfiction (Informational Text) Subject: Science (Earth Science/Life Science) / Reading (Informational Text) Primary Topic: Fossils, how they form, and what they reveal Estimated Guided Reading Level (A–Z): Q What This Lesson Teaches Best Defines a fossil and explains that fossils can be body parts (tooth, bone) or traces (footprint, burrow, fossilized poop) that become clues in the “fossil record.” Explains how fossils form when remains are quickly covered by sediment , and minerals in water replace material or fill empty spaces until remains harden like stone. Teaches mold and cast formation: a body can disappear, leaving a hollow mold that later fills to make a cast. Introduces paleontology and shows how scientists “read” patterns in sedimentary rock layers to learn how life has changed over time. Shows how fossils can guide new discoveries , including using rock layers to search for missing kinds of creatures (Tiktaalik example). Learning Goals Students will identify two kinds of fossils named in the text and give an example of each. Students will explain how sediment and minerals help remains become hard “as stone.” Students will describe how a mold and a cast can form, using the text’s explanation. Students will explain how scientists use patterns in sedimentary rock layers to learn which fossils are older. Students will describe why the fossil record is “not complete,” based on the passage. Students will describe how fossils can help scientists decide where to search for new discoveries. Key Vocabulary From the Text sediment — dirt and tiny bits of rock. minerals — materials in water that can harden remains. mold — a hollow shape left after a body is gone. cast — a filled-in copy of a hollow shape. paleontology — the study of ancient life using fossils.
