Teaching Phonics to Poor Readers: Direct Instruction Using Sound Sheets.

Idol, Lorna; Rutledge, Margaret

Teaching Exceptional Children, v25 n4 p58-61 Sum 1993

This paper offers a rationale for integrating phonics with reading instruction for students with reading disabilities. It then suggests that direct teaching of sounds be provided by constructing "soundsheets" with rows of sound/letter combinations taken directly from the text the child will read after practicing the sounds.
