For use on a magnetic
board or a desk/table.
Consonant Graphemes
are printed in blue and Vowel Graphemes are printed in red. Whether you are
looking at a single word or a list of similar words (such as Weekly Spellings
for home), use these vivid 'concrete' tiles to teach classes, groups or individual
learners about: spelling choices - graphs (one-letter spelling choices), digraphs
(two-letter spelling choices) and trigraphs (three letter spelling choices);
consonant blends/clusters (by selecting two or three of the blue tiles); syllables
(by selecting a red tile for each vowel phoneme); reading errors (that is, we
may say the wrong phoneme - so the 'ea' in teach is not the same as in 'bread')
and spelling errors (that is, we may select the wrong grapheme - so 'teech'
is a sensible guess).
Large and attractive,
the tiles are also ideal for individual and small group tuition at home and
school (including young learners and learners with learning difficulties). We
hope that, once you have had chance to manipulate the tiles yourself, you will
agree that the kinesthetic experience will enhance the multisensory teaching
in your class/school.
