Overview of Course Content
This course is for instructors who want to be trained in evidence-based, multi-sensory techniques for teaching students--especially those who are struggling to read. It is an intensive, systematic, phonetic, structured, evidenced-based approach to decoding and word recognition. Instructors will learn how to use multi-sensory visual, interactive, tactile, and auditory learning strategies to help students avoid and overcome reading difficulties. For example, teachers will learn how to engage students in exciting, effective ways by helping them sound, say, and sing syllabic and phonemic sounds.
Ultimately, this is a speech-to-print course. Students will build foundations for excellence in reading and writing by learning how to spell and write phonemic and syllabic sounds. In other words, students will learn how to spell well to read well. The course content includes the following:
Levels 1-3: Phonetic Foundations
Level 4: Multi-letter consonant sounds
In this section, instructors will learn how to teach students multi-letter sounds such as blends and digraphs. These sound clusters are important because they appear at the beginning and at the end of words. Knowing how to say and spell consonant and vowel clusters provides students with an invaluable key for decoding words.
Level 5: Advanced multi-letter spellings of long vowel sounds
Level 5 introduces students to the long vowel sounds and advanced multi-letter sounds.
English has 15 vowel sounds and 28 different ways to spell those sounds. This presents great difficulty for both teachers and students. This course will help instructors to show their students how to say the vowel sounds and spell all of the various phonograms that represent those sounds so that students can speak, read, and write with greater accuracy.
This course consists of over 100 self-teaching videos, which help students to master the structures of sounds. Interactive digital quizzes help students to target their weaknesses while affirming their strengths and encouraging their efforts.
ScholarSkills will provide webinars and live coaching sessions throughout the training process.
Upon completion of this course, educators will receive certification from ScholarSkills as Level One Orton-Gillingham STAR Instructors. STAR is our acronym for Systematic Training in Analytical Reading. This level one certification means that instructors have been intensively trained in the use of multi-sensory tools to teach and remediate students in foundational reading skills.
