Best Practices
Systematic Phonics Instruction: The lesson sequence is thoughtfully organized from high-utility to low-utility letters and sound-spelling patterns and builds upon the simplest to most complex skills.
Consistent Recursive Review: Regularly revisit previously learned sound-spelling patterns to reinforce learning and encourage retention. Incorporate spiral review techniques that progressively increase in complexity, allowing students to make connections between various sound-spelling patterns.
Metacognitive Phonics Instruction: Encourage students to be aware of their own learning processes by having them reflect on which strategies they are using, how they are applying phonics rules, and why these skills are helpful. Inviting students to track their progress and share their insights empowers them to deepen their understanding of specific sound-spelling patterns and how they learn best.
