[quote=Anonymous]Not using data from last spring is asinine. That’s like taking your kid to new pediatrician and not forwarding the records from the previous doctor. Last spring’s data should be plenty to get you started. I taught with spelling books for years, and they all taught word patterns and phonics rules, and then had kids do vocabulary exercises and grammar or editing work with the same words. Kids worked on these things at their seats while I had reading groups or whatever. Kids could be in different spelling books according to level. They took a weekly test. I introduced the weekly concept as a large group. It gave structure to the lessons (using spelling books) and saved me enormous time in planning, which I now have to do separately for word study, not to mention having to constantly copy papers for kids. It’s much the same thing, only packaged differently. For kids with dyslexia, a more focused and different approach is best.[/quote]
