A New Model for Teaching High-Frequency Words

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.description
Integrating high-frequency words into phonics lessons allows students to make sense of spelling patterns for these words. To do this, high-frequency words need to be categorized according to whether they are spelled entirely regularly or not. This article describes how to "rethink" teaching of high-frequency words.

The Sound Wall materials provided here align with the UFLI Foundations lessons. Included in the UFLI Sound Wall set are the following:

phoneme cards with mouth pictures to represent the articulatory gesture associated with each phoneme,

labels for the sound wall displays, including the place and manner of articulation for consonants, and

grapheme cards that can be added to the sound wall one at a time, as the grapheme-phoneme correspondences are taught.

We have also provided printable version of the Individual Sound wall charts. You may choose to glue them into a file folder for each student or print them front/back to laminate. These may also be enlarged and printed as posters if your classroom space does not allow for the full UFLI Sound Wall displays.
Individual Sound Wall: Consonants Individual Sound Wall: Vowels

Oral Language Development: Strategies for Enhancing Literacy - IMSE - Journal

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.description
According to Louisa Moats, oral language is the system through which we use spoken words to express knowledge, ideas, and feelings (2010). Simply put, it is the foundation of reading and writing. Throughout their development, children acquire oral language skills through speaking and listening. These skills directly influence their language comprehension and impact other areas of literacy, including fluency, vocabulary, and comprehension.
