Enhancing Reading Skills Through Word Part Recognition and Vowel Sound Strategies

This resource focuses on teaching students how to dissect multisyllabic words by identifying word parts and vowel sounds. Utilizing the REWARDS strategy—Reading Excellence, Word Attack, and Rate Development—students learn to break down complex words into manageable parts. The guide includes engaging exercises using examples like "prepay," "disappear," "predominate," and "electronic," encouraging fluency and accuracy in reading longer words. Understanding vowel combinations and context is crucial for effective reading. This method aims to build confidence and enhance literacy skills.

  2. R.E.W.A.R.D.S. • R = READING • E = EXCELLENCE • W = WORD • A = ATTACK & • R = RATE • D = DEVELOPMENT • S = STRATEGIES

  3. Wordsare made of smaller word parts

  4. word part has EVERY ONE vowel sound

  5. prepay (First, we underline the vowel sounds)

  6. prepay (2 vowel sounds =2 word parts)

  7. pre Next, we read the word parts: (open vowel e says its name)

  8. pay (ay = A says its name)

  9. pre pay Now, we loop under each word part

  10. Say it again . . . prepay Use it in a sentence: Please prepay for the movie.

  11. Let’s try another...

  12. disappear ( underline the vowel sounds) By: Clarissa, Justin, Blair, Chris R., Taaj

  13. disappear (3 vowel sounds =3 word parts)

  14. dis (vowel= i says its sound)

  15. ap a says its sound

  16. pear ea says its name E (when 2 vowels go walking, the first one does the talking and it says its name!)

  17. dis pear ap Loop under each word part

  18. Say it again, faster disappear Use it in a sentence: A ghost can disappear.

  19. Now, you try...

  20. predominate (I need to underline the vowel sounds) By: Jose, Chris & Ashley Chris C., John, Norma

  21. predominate • I know that 4 vowel sounds = 4 word parts

  22. pre (open vowel= e says its name)

  23. dom ( o says its sound)

  24. in ( i says its sound)

  25. ate ( a says its name)

  26. Pre dom in ate • Loop under each word part

  27. Say it again, faster Predominate Use it in a sentence: The boys predominate the girls in our class.

  28. Let’s try again...

  29. electronic (I need to underline the vowel sounds) By: Krystle, Mariah, Erik, Brandon, Adriana, Lantz

  30. electronic • I know that 4 vowel sounds = 4 word parts

  31. e (open vowel= e says its name)

  32. lec ( e says its sound)

  33. tron ( o says its sound)

  34. ic ( i says its sound)

  35. electronic • Loop under each word part

  36. Say it again, faster e lec tron ic Use it in a sentence: We have a new electronic pencil sharpener.

  37. 80% of multisyllabic words have one or more affixes

  38. An affix is a word part that can be found in the beginning, middle or end of a word.

  39. Being able to quickly identify and pronounce affixes increases fluency and accuracyin reading longer words.

  40. Vowel Combinations • Most students know the sounds of the consonants. • Many students do not know the sounds of vowel combinations(ay, ai, au, er, ir, ur, ar, a-e, o-e, i-e, e-e, u-e, oi, oy, or, ee, oa, ou) • Some vowel combinations have two sounds(ow, oo, ea).

  41. Vowel Conversions • When a single vowel is encountered in a word, always try the sound first. • If a real, recognizable word is not made, then try the vowel name.

  42. Context • The words read must be real words that other English speakers have said or heard. • Exact pronunciations for longer words will require the use of context clues in the sentence.
