Reading Problems & Letter Relationship

Video Transcript

Hi, I'm Ann Kennedy on behalf of Expert Village and we'll be looking at correcting common reading problems in children. We've looked at several strategies to overcome common problems young readers have. Remember, they've seen and heard most of the books that they're now attempting to read and I have to stress again, they're not trying to fool you, when they're making up the story because they're heard the story. What you're teaching them now is to really make that connection of the words to the pictures to the print. Now, one thing you can ask them, they don't attend to letter sound relationships. This is another problem. Ask them, does that look right? Does the word look right? If they're saying da da and the word is baby, it doesn't look right so you know you need to do some work on alphabets and phonemic awareness. Take a moment, sound it out with them. Does the word on the page look like what you said. Let's try to make the sounds. This is where we go back for some of the things we learned earlier. The sounds of the words, you can bring them back. Let's look at the word (P), make it with your mouth; pig. Promotes visual cues by them looking at the picture. For example; The third little pig builds a house of bricks. Let's try it; The (th) what does that sound like? Th-third, very good. Little, they may say the third lat pig. Let's try the initial sound; the lit-tle. Work with them, slow them down, go back into phonemic awareness and that helps overcome one of these problems of letter sound relationships.
