Phonogram Method Objective Student will learn various phonograms and identify these phonograms through several words in context. By keeping this learning in the context of reading a book, the student will realize the meaning associated with these phonograms and words. The value behind introducing four more difficult words is to simply increase their reading vocabulary and ability to decode words within context.
Procedure Divide the notecards evenly among the students.
Read each word on the notecards along with the students to help them become familiar with the words. Read the book to the students, having them hold up and say a word on their notecard whenever it is read in the story. This will clue them to look for the word and help them to identify it. Continue to read the book until all students are familiar with reading their notecards. After reading the story, give each child two word strips.
