Then click on Reading and Spelling.  Scroll down to Scope and Sequence and click on it.  The Scope and Sequence gives activities to do with the reading and spelling workbooks and also presents the sounds introduced and practiced in each workbook.  The sounds are the ones that will be practice at each level of the program.

Below is the Scope and Sequence for the English Reading and Spelling for the Spanish Speaker workbooks.

Scope and Sequence

for the 

English Reading and Spelling for the Spanish SpeakerSeries

Before beginning English Reading and Spelling for the Spanish Speaker Book 1, practice the consonant sounds below with your students. Many of the consonant sounds are the same in English as in Spanish.  The letters: q, w, x and y have been left off this list because they are introduced and practiced in English Reading and Spelling for the Spanish Speaker Book 1.

Bb says /b/ as in boy.

Cc says /c/ as in cat.

Dd says /d/ as in dog.

Ff says /f/ as in fun.

Gg says /g/ as in goat.

Hh says /h/ as in house.

Jj says /j/ as in jump.

Kk says /k/ as in kite.

Ll says /l/ as in lion.

Mm says/m/ as in mat.

Rr says  /r/ as in run.

Ss says /s/ as in sun.

Vv says /v/ as in van.

Zz says /z/ as in zoo.

To help your students obtain automaticity with these sounds, you can use flash cards, graphic organizers or smart boards.  

 

Students need to know that both upper and lower case letters make the same sound.

This is a graphic organizer for the sound of letter s.  Students can work together to make graphic organizers for each of the consonants listed above. 

The teacher can use a smart board for the students to practice their letter sounds or students can write their own letters to practice the letter sounds. From left to right, students read the sounds.

Fisher Hill’s Sound Spelling Placement Tests

Fisher Hill’s English Literacy Program for Spanish-speaking teens and adults has Sound Spelling Placement Tests to determine on which level a student should begin.  As I stated in my last blog, Fisher Hill’s English Literacy Program is a structured literacy program. This means the program uses systematic and explicit methods to teach decoding and word identification skills. Structured literacy is beneficial to all students but especially to students who have had difficulty learning to read and spell.  

Fisher Hill’s Sound Spelling Placement Tests can be found under Teacher Resources on our webpage at www.Fisher-Hill.com.  Click on Teacher Resources from the top tool bar. Then click on Reading and Spelling.  Next scroll down to the Sound Spelling Placement Tests.  Students need to score 80% on a placement test to go to the next level.

The Sound Spelling Placement Tests assess the sounds taught at each level of the program.  Sound Spelling Placement Test Book 1evaluates the sounds taught in Level 1.  If a student cannot perform at 80% on the Sound Spelling Placement Test Book 1then he/she needs to begin with Reading and Spelling for the Spanish Speaker Book 1.  This is the first book to be used for Level 1.  After completing Reading and Spelling for the Spanish Speaker Book 1, the student can then use English Reading Comprehension for the Spanish Speaker Book 1and English Writing Composition for the Spanish Speaker Book 1.  The level finishes with English Vocabulary for the Spanish Speaker Book 1.  After completing all four workbooks, the student then again takes Sound Spelling Placement Test Book 1.  If he/she performs at 80% then he/she can go on to Level 2.  If a student does not perform at 80%, then the student needs more practice with the sounds he/she has not mastered yet.

Each Sound Spelling Test consists of 30 words a student must spell.  This will determine if the student has learned the sounds presented at each level. Below is a copy of Sound Spelling Test for Level 1.  The teacher, aid or volunteer dictates the words and the students write them. Students who perform 80% on the test, can go on to the next level. Below the test is the student’s test form that can also be found under Teacher Resources.

It’s important the test giver dictates the words in the correct order starting with number 1 and finishing with number 30.  The first column states what sound is being tested.  If a student does not perform at 80% then the sounds that were not mastered need to be reviewed.

Structured literacy uses systematic and explicit methods to teach decoding and word identification. Structured literacy is beneficial to all students but especially to students who have had difficulty learning to read and spell.  

Structured literacy teaches phonology, sound-symbol, syllables, morphology, syntax and semantics. Phonology is the study of the sound structure in spoken words. This includes phonemic awarenes which is the ability to distinguish, segment, blend and manipulate sounds in words.

Structured literacy teaches sound-symbol association which is the alphabetic principle: to associate sounds with letters.

Structured literacy teaches syllables. Knowing the six syllable types helps students associate vowel spellings with vowel sounds.  Syllable division rules help students to divide and decode unfamiliar words, especially longer words.

tructured literacy teaches syllables. Knowing the six syllable types helps students associate vowel spellings with vowel sounds.  Syllable division rules help students to divide and decode unfamiliar words, especially longer words.

Structured literacy teaches morphology which is the study of  the meanings of the smallest units of language.  Studying base words and affixes help students decode and understand the meanings of complex words.

Structured literacy teaches syntax which is the principles that dictate the sequence and function of words in sentences. This includes grammar, sentence structure and the mechanics of language (spelling, captalization, punctuation).

Structure literacy ESL workbooks for Spanish-speaking Bilingual teens and adults teaches, semantics which is concerned with meaning.  This includes comprehension of written language. 

Structured literacy uses systematic, cumulative, explicit and diagnostic priniciples to teach reading and spelling. This approach is very effective to all students, especially those who have difficulty learning to read and spell.

Students like our workbooks because the pace is reasonable, print is large, there’s lots of pictures but the content is for older students and adults.  Teachers like our books because everything is ready to go! There’s an answer key at the the end of each lesson and an English translation of the Spanish directions at the end of each book.

Fisher Hill continues to make available its workbooks for Spanish-speaking teens and adults as ebooks that can be downloaded from our website.  The English for the Spanish Speaker series and the English Reading and Spelling for the Spanish Speaker series is already available as ebooks.  These two series are also still available as hardcopy workbooks that can be bought online.  

In February 2019, English Reading Comprehension for the Spanish Speaker series will be available as ebooks to be downloaded from our website. The hardcopy workbooks will still be available for purchase from our website. 

The English Reading Comprehension for the Spanish Speaker workbooks are made up of twenty lessons.  Lessons include practice with fluency, vocabulary, visualization, comprehension, phonology and phonics.  There is an answer key at the end of each lesson. 

Reading smoothly (fluency) is an important skill.  Fluency allows readers to think about what they are reading instead of having to think about sounding out words. Decoding skills need to be learned and practiced so these skills become automatic when reading words.  Visualizing (making pictures in your head) helps readers remember what they have read. Good vocabulary skills help readers visualize.  Readers cannot visualize a word if they do not know its meaning. All of these skills:  fluency, visualizing, vocabulary, and decoding are necessary for reading comprehension.

Reading comprehension is the goal of reading.  Reading is an essential skill for jobs and daily life.  Many people enjoy reading and say it is one of their favorite pastimes. Others read only when it is necessary. Whichever the case may be, everyone needs to know how to read. Learning to read comes more easily to some people than others.  Most people need to be taught how to read.  It is different from learning to talk.  Learning to read can be very difficult for some people but with practice, most everyone can learn to read.

Click on Choose an option.  You will have the choice of either bookor ebook.  If you choose ebookthen you will be able to download the book after purchase.  You can do this with each of the workbooks in this series. There are six workbooks.

These six workbooks were written to help Spanish speakers learn to read and spell in English.  Each workbook uses the Orton-Gillingam approach to teach the English speech sounds and each book provides practice with phonemic awareness, which is the ability to identify individual sounds and their order within words.  Orton-Gillingham uses a multisensory, systematic, explicit approach to teach the 44 English speech sounds. Learning the different speech sounds will help students read and spell in English fluently.  Eighty-five percent (85%) of words in English are phonetic.  This book also presents many of the commonly used words, called sight words, that are not phonetic.

The workbooks are bilingual because the word list for each lesson is presented in English and Spanish and the directions for each page is in Spanish. There are English translations at the back of the books for the Spanish directions. There are pictures to go with many of the words in the lists.  Each lesson emphasizes one or two new speech sounds.  The vowel sounds in English are different than those in Spanish, but many of the English consonant sounds are similar to those in Spanish. Most consonants in English have one sound. Vowels can make several speech sounds. 

Each lesson’s word list begins with words that contain the speech sound that is being emphasized in that lesson.  The last two words in the list are sight words.

Practicing English speech sounds, sight words, and their spellings will help Spanish speakers learn English reading and spelling.

In English Reading and Spelling for the Spanish Speaker Books 4, 5, and 6, prefixes and suffixes are introduced and practiced.

On our website, there are placement tests to determine which level a student should begin.  A student needs a score of 80% to go to the next level.  For example, if a student gets 60% on the placement test for level one, then that student needs to begin with English Reading and Spelling for the Spanish Speaker Book 1
