Phonics: Phonics DanceWhy do we need the Phonics Dance?
Reading is a difficult process. Here is why…
84% of the words in the English Language are phonetically correct.
BUT….The 16% that are NOT
phonetically correct appear in all types of literature 80%
of the time!
We add 1 or 2 a week
i-n-g
ing, ing, ing
i-n-g
ing, ing, ing

Reading Strategies
Picture Walk
Take a picture walk. Talk about what you notice and what might happen. Discuss any tricky words.
Check the picture.
What does the picture show the dog making?
Look at the first sound.
Look at the picture. Get your mouth ready to say the first word.
It’s not just a fish, it’s a goldfish.
Look for hunk and chunks or smaller words or word parts.
The word think has the hunk & chunk: th and the smaller word ink.
The wordpartyhas a smaller word: art.
Stretch out the word by saying each sound.
Re-Reading
Stripped…striped? Take a guess and then re-read. Did it make sense?
Always re-read after using any strategy.
Skip it, read the rest and go back
If the word is in the middle of the sentence, skip the word you are stuck on, read the rest and use the clues in the rest of the sentence to figure out the hard word.
If you were stuck on “caught” or “near” reading the rest of the sentence might help you figure it out.

The more that you learn, the more places you'll go.”
