Introduction Welcome to Readers in Rhyme Language Arts program Level 1A. This program is designed to ensure that learning phonics is enjoyable and easy for both teacher and student. At CSS our goal is to create beautiful, rich curriculum that is comprehensive but never overwhelming.

Key Features: Scripted Lessons: Our Language Arts curriculum features step-by-step scripted lessons. Each lesson provides clear instructions, guiding you through the material easily.

Open-and-Go Format: Easy prep and lesson planning.

Multi-Sensory Approach: Listen, see and do. Engaging more than one sense at a time helps students process and retain what they are learning. Saying the phonogram sounds while tracing or writing, building words with magnetic letters or tiles, dictation etc. are just a few examples of this. While this approach is great for all students, it is especially helpful for children that struggle with learning to read.

Color-coded phonograms aid with teaching and learning phonics: By using different colors to represent specific phonetic patterns or sounds, students can easily identify and recognize the patterns in words. This visual aid enhances phonemic awareness, improves word decoding skills, and assists in spelling. The color-coded system provides a simple and effective way for both teachers and students to navigate the complexities of the English language and master reading and writing with greater fluency. Red phonograms indicate the letter or letter group makes a vowel sound. Blue phonograms indicate the letter or letter group make a consonant sound.

Auditory and Phonemic Awareness Exercises: help with developing crucial pre-reading and prewriting skills. These exercises focus on recognizing and manipulating sounds in spoken language. By engaging in activities that require students to distinguish and manipulate sounds, they improve their phonemic awareness, which is the ability to identify and work with individual sounds (phonemes) in words.

These exercises are essential for early literacy development as they lay the foundation for reading and writing. Students learn to distinguish between different sounds, blend sounds together to form words, segment words into individual sounds, and manipulate sounds to create new words. These skills are vital for phonics instruction, spelling, and reading comprehension.

Example of auditory exercise found throughout this guide

-Auditory ExerciseMedial Sounds Say to the student: I’m going to say three words. Two of them will have the same MIDDLE sound. One of them will have a different middle sound. I want you to tell me which one is not like the others. Here is an example: beg, hit, met Beg and met both have the /e/ in the middle. Hit has an /i/ in the middle. Hit is not like the others.

(It may be necessary to sound out the words slowly annunciating the vowel sound.)

• hot, hat, mop • nap, slam, box • dig, top, dog • rod, sat, sock • bad, cup, map • mom, log, pin

Mastery Based Program: Our curriculum follows a carefully designed sequence, covering all essential phonics skills progressively. Each lesson builds upon the previous lesson and includes plenty of review.

At Classical School Solutions, we strive to offer the best from the past in art and story. Our Readers In Rhyme feature beautiful vintage illustrations carefully restored alongside newly written stories. We hope the timeless themes of virtue in every day life inspire and delight your student.

We are here to support you in any way we can. If you have questions, please feel free to contact us at info@classicalschoolsolutions.com. Or visit our website classicalschoolsolutions.com

Happy reading!

How To Use This Guide 1. Orient yourself to the flow of the pages and sequence of the activities.

• Each lesson’s material is meant to be covered in one week. Each lesson is broken down into four days of teaching material in lessons A, B, C, and D. Day five of the school week is for review.

Each daily lesson has activities that include phonics review and handwriting.

• The nursery rhyme or poem should be read to the children daily and they can work on memorizing each one.

• Phonics exercises can be done in various ways and ideas for activities can be found in teachers notes at the beginning of each lesson.

2. The teacher’s guide is scripted for your conversation with the students.

• The phonics lesson in total should only last 20 minutes. Follow up work with letter tiles, chalkboard, whiteboard, etc will reinforce the concepts taught.

3. Initially, work slowly to orient the children to the material.

• The goal of this program is to give children a solid phonics foundation. It is much easier to work steadily on mastery than it is to remediate skills later on that were not learned in these early years. Some students will catch on quickly and may need an option for independent work.

4. Incorporating Movement • Try to incorporate movement when possible. Have students clap out the syllables in words. Have them stand up to practice recitation of the poem they are memorizing. When the students practice handwriting have them say the sound(s) the phonogram makes while writing.

5. Repetition is Key • Do try to keep the same routine with the material. For those that are struggling this is very comforting. Practice makes progress!

Syllables Read to the student: You have learned fifty-four of the seventy-two phonograms. So let’s talk a bit about what syllables are. A syllable is a letter or combination of letters that are uttered together or in one effort. Syllables are the pieces or chunks of the word. Syllables contain a vowel and the consonants that are spoken with it. You can think of syllables as the drum beats of words. Let's practice finding the syllables in words.

-Auditory ExerciseSegmenting Syllables Say to the student: Many words have more than one syllable in the word. I’m going to say a word with more than one syllable. I want you to separate the syllables. For example, if I say candy, you say and clap can•dy

If you are not sure, you can put your hand under chin as you repeat the word. Your mouth opens to utter each vowel sound. Count how many times your jaw opens to count the syllables.

Phonics Practice

Lesson 13A

Have the student point to the phonograms and say their sounds.

Daily Dictation:Phonograms of the day: EA /E/ /e/ /A/, OY /oy/ that we MAY use at the end of a word, OO /oo/ /OO/, OU /ow/ /O/ /oo/u/, UR /er/, EA /E/ /e/ /A/ Sentence of the day: Mom cooks good food for dinner

Syllables Review Read to the student: A syllable is a letter or combination of letters that are uttered together or in one effort. Syllables are the pieces or chucks of the word. Syllables contain a vowel and the consonants that are spoken with it. You can think of syllables as the drum beats of words. Let's practice finding the syllables in words.

-Auditory ExerciseSegmenting Syllables Say to the student: Many words have more than one syllable in the word. I’m going to say a word with more than one syllable. I want you to separate the syllables. For example, if I say candy, you say and clap can•dy

If you are not sure, you can put your hand under chin as you repeat the word. Your mouth opens to utter each vowel sound. Count how many times your jaw opens to count the syllables.

TEACHER’S NOTES

Lesson 20A, 20B, 20C, 20D

Phonograms we are working on this week: EI Poem: “Who Has Seen the Wind” Christina Georgina Rossetti

Letter Tiles • Guide students to sound out their phonogram tiles to build words from the lesson. You can do this as a class (guided) to begin with and slowly move it to independent work.

Dry Erase Board activities • Guide students to sound out and write words from each lesson onto their dry erase board. You can do this as a class (guided) to begin with and slowly move it to independent work.

Plastic Sheet Protector activities • Use plastic sheet protectors to create dry erase sheets for students to copy words . You can place phonogram sheets from the lesson in the sheet protectors and let the student complete the work this way.

Phonics Bingo • Play games of phonics bingo.

Dictation-On a separate piece of lined paper • When dictating phonograms make sure to say all the sounds each phonogram makes. When dictating sentences say each word in the sentence slowly allowing students time to sound out and write the words. Once the students have written the complete sentence, say it again slowly allowing students to check their work. You can gradually increase the pace as the students are ready.

Read Aloud • We recommend daily read aloud time.. Set aside 15-30 minutes per day for reading and discussion/narration.

Consult Reader Guides for helpful vocabulary and comprehension questions.
