Product Information

Sight words are any word that can be recalled without having to “sound it out.” In other words, the word is known automatically. Sight words are stored in our orthographic lexicon and can be recalled easily. Sight words can also be regular (e.g., marble) or irregular (e.g., was). By examining the various lists of Red Words more carefully, teachers can integrate high-frequency words into their phonics lessons to allow students to focus on spelling patterns to enhance their attention to the irregularities while recognizing repeated spelling patterns or features of words.

We use pure sounds(‘m’ not’ muh’, ’s’ not ‘suh’, etc.) so that your child will be able to blend the sounds into words more easily.Hold a sentenceis an activity that encourages children to remember a whole sentence while focusing on spelling and punctuation. If the student is introduced to the parts of the word that contain regular and irregular spelling patterns for each selected word, they will have an advantage in mapping these words into long-term memory for automatic word recognition. Emphasize irregularities Children follow the same format as Reception but will work on complex sounds and read books appropriate to their reading level. Daily sessions of RWI phonics last for one hour. Most children should complete the programme by the end ofyear 2 if not earlier.

Since students often review red words outside of school, it is important to educate parents about the multisensory process and the potential outcomes of daily practice. The teacher confirms (or corrects) the responses as the correct letters are written. The teacher draws a comparison to sounds that are expected (represented by a matched phoneme-in this word, the /d/) or unexpected (irregular spelling-in this word, the oe represents /ŭ/ and s represents /z/). This process solidifies the student’s understanding of its Red Word properties and also points out parts of the word where the student can apply phonic decoding knowledge. This essential step should not be skipped with any students at any age or level. Categorize Red Words For example, in the word “does,” the student would identify the three sounds, /d/-/ŭ/-/z/, by placing tokens to represent each of the sounds in the word. The teacher would then ask the student what letters they would expect to spell each sound. Sign up for our LIVE virtual Orton-Gillingham training! We are now offering half-day, evening, and weekend options to best fit your schedule.

These words will also complement their concept learning and provide more options for sentence construction and spelling. Although there are no absolute requirements for choosing the first dozen Red Words in kindergarten, most teachers are very familiar with the most commonly encountered words.

Learn to write and form the letters/letter groups which represent the 44 sounds with the help of fun phrases learn to write and form the letters/letter groups which represent the 44 sounds with the help of fun phrasesIMSE uses the term Red Word because the visual color red reminds students that these words are irregular. Lists of these words can be found on the Dolch List, Fry Instant Words, or in the index of many decodable readers.

During the RWI session children will read the book three times and at each new reading they will have plenty of opportunities to practise using their developing comprehension skills. You may have heard your child talking about ‘ hold, edit or build a sentence’.

Get to know us

We start by teaching phonics to the children in the Reception class. This means that they learn how to ‘read’ the sounds in words and how those sounds can be written down. This is essential for reading, but it also helps children learn to spell well. We teach the children simple ways of remembering these sounds and letters. In Reception all children will learn how to ‘read’ the sounds in words and how those sounds can be written down.
