Adaptive Orton-Gillingham Lesson Directions 1. Visual Drill a. Select the visual card for the letter being taught. This card is found in the Reading Deck or create your own card using a black Sharpie Marker and an index card. Cut out the picture from this workbook or photocopy the page and cut out the picture. Be sure to follow the sequence of letters as they are listed in this workbook. For example, start with the card that has the letter p on one side and the image panda on the opposite side. b. Show the student the letter p and say This is the letter p. Turn the card around and say like panda. Then say, It makes the sound /p/. (There is no card for the sound.) Do not add a vowel sound to a consonant sound. For example, do NOT say puh for the sound p. c. Again, show the student the same card, and ask the student to say the name of the letter. Turn the card around, and ask the student to say the name the name of the picture. Then ask the student to say the sound the letter makes. 2. Kinesthetic Drill a. Show the student how to write the letter. Read the directions to the student. b. Ask the student to trace the directions of the letter in the workbook. c. As an alternate direction, have a flat cookie sheet available (or a flat box like a plastic storage box used for food) with sand or uncooked rice in it, and ask the student to use the index finger to write the letter in the sand (or rice). d. Using the page in the workbook, have the student write the letter five times on each line, making sure that the student says the auditory directions properly as the letter is being written. For example, for the letter p, say, down, up, and around. Then write the letter on the line which is next to the image. 3. Phonological Processing Drill (to learn to associate the sound the letter makes with the first sound of a word.) a. The student looks at each image. The student should say out loud the name of each image. Then the student should place a check mark ( ) in the box which is directly under the image that starts with the sound being taught. 4
4. Auditory Sound Drill a. Dictate the sound of the first letter (for example p ) by saying to the student, Write the letter that makes the sound /p/ as in panda. b. The student writes the letter on the line next to the number 1. c. Repeat the process for each letter in a group. Then repeat the same process but change the order of the letters and their sounds. 5. Decoding Drill (Sound blending) a. Ask the student to say the sound the first letter makes, then say the sound the second letter makes, then blend the sounds together. For example, /a/ /p/ says /ap/. Remember, some of the words are real and some not. b. Do the same process for blending words that are made of three letters c. Then ask the student to read the words on the pages that have three, then nine, words on the page. Ask the student to follow the same process of blending the sounds that they just learned. d. Continue by asking the student to read all the words on each of the next four pages. e. Word per minute timing is designed to improve the reading fluency of the student. First, read to the student all the words on the word list. Start in the upper left hand corner, go across the row to the right, then start the next row and go to the right, until all the words are read. f. Then ask the student to read the same set of words in the word list. Tell the student that he or she will be timed for one minute. Use a stop watch, a timer, or the second hand on a wrist watch or clock to track 60 seconds. Tell the student when the minute is up. If the student should finish the word list before the minute is up, the student should start reading the list again. Have the student read the word list five different times. These tries do not have to be on the same day. g. Then, use the graph on the next page to record the results. Take any color marker, and color in the total words read per minute, making a vertical bar. See the example at the bottom of the graph used to record the results. 6. Spelling Drill a. Select ten (10) words from the word list. Dictate each word, one at a time and have the student say the sounds as he or she writes the word. b. An example that might be used is: Write the word pat. Ask the student to say /p/ /a/ /t/, as they write the word, /pat/. 7. This completes the directions for the first group of letters. If the student has not mastered any letter, please review the letters. 5
8. For the second, third, fourth, and fifth sets of letters, the student will be asked to start the lesson by reviewing all the letters and their sounds that have already been learned. 9. The next exercise involves learning Sight Words. Sight words are words that are not sounded out. They need to be memorized by the student. Take the cards from the Sight Word Deck corresponding to each word on the page of the sight words. You can also create your own cards by using a red Sharpie Marker and an index card. We want the sight words to be in red. Show each card to the student. The teacher tells the student what each word is. Then have the student say the word. Then shuffle the cards and have the student read each one again. Continue to do this until the student has learned all the sight words in the section. There is a complete list of sight words on page 227. 10. The next exercise involves the use of a Controlled Reader. A controlled reader is a passage that does not make sense, but allows the student to practice reading the letters and sounds the student has just learned in sentences. Then the student should read the sentences out loud. The controlled reader section is supposed to be read several times until the student can read the entire passage fluently 11. Continue the same steps through each of the five (or six) letters in the next four groups. 6
