Spelling Skills_Vowels_Sounds_Level Four_Consonant Vowel Consonant T
Tactile practice at how best to cope with reading and spelling three-letter words
This technique is suitable for children aged 4 through to adults. This technique follows on from Level Three Vowels Sounds Lessons, broadening the dyslexic or dyspraxic's skills to encompass longer words involving a consonant (non-vowel letter, such as T) then a vowel (A, E, I, O, U) and finally a consonant. Blending these three sounds can be a stumbling block for young children and adult dyslexics or dyspraxics alike. This technique uses tactile activities to show you how to make sound analysis and blending easier. This technique is specific to the English language, or one which requires the blending of three sounds in simple phonetic spellings (although you will need to insert your own suitable word list in place
of the one given in the Lesson).
