👋 Just a kindergarten reading specialist telling you something you won’t hear elsewhere.

Most native English speaker master these skills and a bunch more within the first trimester of kindergarten.

The ones who cannot….

Unless the quality of the curriculum is questionable…

In my experience the rest of those child have something else underlying going on.

And most schools won’t do anything about it until 3rd grade. That’s often when I see these same kids in my dyslexia private practice with their self-esteem shattered.

That’s where you come in as the concerned parent.

My kindergarten students who go from struggle bus to flourishing readers have a parent willing to spend 5ish minutes a day working on letters and sounds in a strategic way.

You can totally deep dive and DIY from my page and many others. But it you want some hand-holding and a reading specialist created Sounds to CVC curriculum, you’ll want to check out my program Sounds School.

Comment SOUNDS and I’ll DM you the link (no obligation). And in honor of Back to School, I’m going to let the first three new members in for 50% off.

⤵️ And these skills too…

✅ identify rhymes and syllables
✅ read about 10 sight words
✅ count to 10
✅ write numbers to 10
✅ subitize to 6
✅ notice patterns

And more….

Plus your child is still trying to figure out how to do school!

We don’t send home homework in kindergarten at our school. So what’s a parent supposed to do to get their child who is struggling more practice?

I made you 225+ print and go worksheets. Comment KINDERGARTEN and I’ll DM you the link.

You can argue in the comments about how u reasonable this is. But I’m not an education reform account. I’m an account for parents who want to help their struggling child.

🩷I know how you feel.

I have been there with my own daughter.

Those toddler and early childhood influencers told you not to worry about reading.

But it’s first or second grade and the reading and spelling aren’t clicking.

Their teacher just told you it’s a problem.

But the advice “just read more” has been less than helpful.

I won’t gaslight you.

This is hard but it’s a solvable problem.

I got to work. And within six months my daughter went from avoiding reading to staying up too late with a flashlight under the covers.

Reading is a science. 95% of children will learn to read with a step-by-step approach.

And I spell it all out for you in my free guide
Reading Gains: without the Pain.

Comment GUIDE and I’ll DM you a link where you can download this free guide.

🩷Please note that I can’t truly guarantee your child’s results. It would be unethical to tell you I could.

However, I have had these results with my own child and children I work with.

I skip Netflix and moms’ nights to show up on here to support parents just like you. You have a dyslexia specialist in your corner every step of the way.🩷

👋 Hi, I’m Anne, your friendly reading intervention teacher, dyslexia specialist and mom to a struggling reader and speller.

When I first started teaching in downtown Los Angeles, my classroom was full of first generation Americans who had no strategies other than guessing.

My teacher prep on reading was all “let them see themselves represented in authentic literature and they’ll just figure it out.” 🤦🏻‍♀️😭

Wrong.

They did not.

Fast forward five years and I taught 2nd grade in Seattle. My principal was BFF with the head of the local dyslexia school and send us all to get trained in structured literacy (Orton-Gillingham).

Me: 🤯🤯

There is a simple system to help struggling readers (and really ALL readers) learn to break apart big words.

I can teach it to you, too!

1️⃣ Spot the syllable types: cat, go, bike, peach, hard, and pickle have distinct types of syllables. Once you get the hang of this, you can look at a word like

🦋butterfly

and instantly see how to break it apart.

Webster came up with these when he made the dictionary 150+ years ago.

2️⃣ Split the syllables

There are some general strategies to figure out where to break a word into syllables.

You can see patterns like breaking muffin into muf-fin, robot into ro-bot, and camel into cam-el.

3️⃣ Flexing to schwa sound

That’s all well and good and then we get to words like “apart” and “banana.” Why does that “a” sound like /uh/ sometimes? It’s called the schwa.

I’m going to run out of space in the caption but the next two steps are
4️⃣ singling out suffixes and prefixes
5️⃣ spelling multi-syllable words

If this sounds like something your child needs you to learn, comment BIG. I’ll DM you the link to Syllable School so you can join our next four week class.

(And pssst you can actually do this WHILE working on phonics skills!)

This should be required teaching and sadly most teachers don’t know this! They didn’t teach me in my preparation program.

I got lucky about 15 years ago when my school principal sent me to Orton-Gillingham training and I learned this.

👋 Hi, I’m Anne, a reading intervention teacher, dyslexia specialist and mom to a dyslexic. Helping you teach your child to read is my jam.

Here’s four steps for big words:

1️⃣ How to spot syllables

There are six predictable syllable types. Teaching your child to spot them helps so much!

2️⃣ Where to split syllables

There are some general strategies that help children split words into their written syllables. This helps them see each little chunk of the word and sound out instead of guess.

3️⃣ The schwa sound

You know the a in “about” sounds like /uh/. And in bacon, the o sounds like /ih/. That’s the sneaky schwa. Learning about schwa and teaching your child to be flexible with vowel sounds is key!

4️⃣ Suffixes and prefixes

Teaching your child basic suffixes like -ing, -ed, -s, -tion and prefixes like non, un, non and pre help break big words down.

…..
As I’ve worked with more and more parents on Zoom this year, I see this is where you are getting stuck. So I’m launching Syllable School. Comment BIG if you want info to join us!

🚀Three grade levels in just 15 months?!

Did you know if your struggling reader can sound out:

*bird
*jam
*cake

Then you can also teach them to sound out words like:

*pickleball
*hamburger
*expertly
*convoluted
*mistreating
*abandonment

That’s exactly what I do with every struggling reader I’ve taught including my own daughter.

It’s actually a real easy process. If you can follow directions for a recipe or build IKEA furniture, you can learn this too!

These are the steps:

1️⃣ Write the word for your child on a whiteboard or piece of paper.

2️⃣ Underline the vowels.

3️⃣ Look for the consonants in between the vowels.

4️⃣ If there are two consonants together, you divide in between.

5️⃣ If there is just one consonant, you show your child to break the word before the consonant.

Seeing this in action makes it a lot easier. And this is exactly what I’ll teach you in Syllable School.

It’s a series of four hour long video lessons with loads of printables and worksheets. I’ll show you exactly what to do so you can teach your child.

Comment BIG and I’ll DM you the link for the first round of Syllable School so your child can read big words.

I’m only on Instagram for you.

To hold your hand. To wipe your tears.

To say, I have been there. I can show you the way.

And to say, yes it’s different, but it’s going to be okay.

It also has the potential to be amazing.

Please do not let anyone limit your child - including yourself.🩷
