Systematic Sequential Phonics They Use
by Patricia M. Cunningham
| |
This book helps teachers provide activities in which students discover
how words work. These activities include Making Words and Word Wall,
which are included in each 5-lesson cycle. The Word Wall is a critical
component of Systematic Sequential Phonics They Use. High frequency
words are added as a part of every 5 lessons. Words are displayed under
the letter in the alphabet in the order introduced. In addition to the
classroom Word Wall, the students are given a take-home Word Wall each
week that contains all the words on their classroom Word Wall. As a fun
component to teaching phonics, students reinforce their learned skills
with "Wordo", a variation to the popular Bingo game. Teachers will find
that this book is a powerful tool to guide in phonics instruction.

Jennifer's Review, July 20, 2009
By Jennifer Rasmussen, Iowa
Product Setting: Self-contained classroom, Title I Reading, Teacher Preparation. Skill Development: Improving students' independent application of phonics principles.
In our current educational climate it is important that teachers are able to protect the best interests of our students while still meeting the guidelines set by NCLB. Cunningham is such a well-known name in the area of authentic phonics instruction, but this particular book shows that instruction can be both systematic and authentic. I used this book during my last years of teaching in a self-contained multiage primary classroom and as a Title I Reading teacher. Now as a faculty member of teacher education it is a great example to show preservice teachers that they can challenge the initial interpretations of systematic and explicit to remain authentic.
Cathy's Reading Review, April 17, 2009
By Cathy Paquat, Minnesota
Product Setting: Small group setting. Skill Development: Building word strategies and study of word parts, initial/median/ending sounds/phonemic awareness.
Used every other day for a short, 20 minute block, we have seen huge improvements in our students' word building abilities.
