When I teach Sounds-Write lessons I am confident all our students will learn to decode – I never felt this way with any other phonics approach. There is a simplicity and directness, engagement, and joyfulness to the lessons. Students are eager to participate and “get it.” It is a real pleasure to teach daily Sounds-Write lessons and see student improvement in reading, spelling, and writing! Young non-blenders become confident blenders in a short amount of time. Sounds-Write in the upper grades focuses on vocabulary, morphology, and etymology in a logical way which sparks student interest and builds student confidence.
