  • Fry 1000 Instant Words: Free Flash Cards and Word Lists for Teachers
    Fry 1000 Instant Words: Free Flash Cards and Word Lists For Teachers Fry 1000 Instant Words Bulletin Board Display Banner and 26 Letter Cards The Fry 1000 Instant Words are a list of the most common words used for teaching reading, writing, and spelling. These high frequency words should be recognized instantly by readers. Dr. Edward B. Fry's Instant Words (which are often referred to as the "Fry Words") are the most common words used in English ranked in order of frequency. In 1996, Dr. Fry expanded on Dolch's sight word lists and research and published a book titled "Fry 1000 Instant Words." In his research, Dr. Fry found the following results: 25 words make up approximately 1/3 of all items published. 100 words comprise approximately 1/2 of all of the words found in publications. 300 words make up approximately 65% of all written material. Over half of every newspaper article, textbook, children's story, and novel is composed of these 300 words. It is difficult to write a sentence without using several of the first 300 words in the Fry 1000 Instant Words List. Consequently, students need to be able to read the first 300 Instant Words without a moment's hesitation. Do not bother copying these 3 lists. You will be able to download free copies of these lists, plus 7 additional lists that are not shown (words 301 - 1000), using the free download links that are found later on this page. In addition to these 10 free lists of Fry's sight words, I have created 1000 color coded flashcards for all of the Fry 1000 Instant Words.

  • Building the Alphabetic Principle in Young Children Who Are Deaf Or Hard of Hearing
    The Volta Review, Volume 109(2-3), Fall/Winter 2009, 87–119 Building the Alphabetic Principle in Young Children Who Are Deaf or Hard of Hearing Jessica Page Bergeron , M.E.D. ; Amy R. Lederberg, Ph.D. ; Susan R. Easterbrooks, Ed.D. ; Elizabeth Malone Miller, M.S. ; and Carol McDonald Connor, Ph.D. Acquisition of phoneme-grapheme correspondences, a key concept of the alphabetic principle, was examined in young children who are deaf or hard of hearing (DHH) using a semantic association strategy embedded in two interventions, the Children’s Early Intervention and Foundations for Literacy. Single-subject design experiments using multiple baselines across content were used to examine the functional relation- ship between student outcomes and the intervention provided. Only students who were able to identify spoken words were included in the studies. Study One was con- ducted with 5 children 3.10–7.10 years of age in oral or signing programs. Study Two was conducted with 5 children 3.10–4.5 years of age in an oral program. All children acquired taught phoneme-grapheme correspondences. These findings provide much- needed evidence that children who are DHH and who have some speech perception abilities can learn critical phoneme-grapheme correspondences through explicit audi- tory skill instruction with language and visual support.

  • Spelling Bee Rules
    2021 Rules for Local Spelling Bees Preface The Scripps National Spelling Bee (SNSB) encourages spellers, parents, teachers and spelling bee officials to read these rules prior to any local spelling bee. The SNSB defines a local spelling bee as any spelling bee other than its 2021 championship spelling bee (“national finals”). Spellers and spellers’ parents and teachers should check with their local spelling bee officials for the rules in effect in their area, as local spelling bee officials are encouraged but not required to use these rules. Spelling bee officials include the pronouncer, judges, coordinator and sponsor. While local spelling bee officials have the prerogative to amend Rules 2 through 11, amendment(s) — particularly any amendment(s) to the end-of-bee procedure — should be undertaken only with careful consideration of the various outcomes that may result from the amendment(s). The SNSB has no authority over the conduct of local spelling bees and will not render judgments relating to their conduct or outcomes. Individuals bearing complaints about local spelling bees should register their concerns with local spelling bee officials. DECISIONS OF LOCAL SPELLING BEE OFFICIALS ARE FINAL. These Rules for Local Spelling Bees are not the rules in effect at the national finals. When a local spelling bee official says, “We use the national rules,” he or she is probably indicating that the Rules for Local Spelling Bees are in effect. The national finals operate under a significantly different set of rules called the Contest Rules of the 2021 Scripps National Spelling Bee. These rules contain provisions that are specific to unique conditions at the national finals.

  • Long-Term Effects of Synthetic Versus Analytic Phonics Teaching on the Reading and Spelling Ability of 10 Year Old Boys and Girls
    Long-term effects of synthetic versus analytic phonics teaching on the reading and spelling ability of 10 year old boys and girls Rhona S. Johnston, Sarah McGeown, Joyce E. Watson Abstract A comparison was made of 10-year-old boys and girls who had learnt to read by analytic or synthetic phonics methods as part of their early literacy programmes. The boys taught by the synthetic phonics method had better word reading than the girls in their classes, and their spelling and reading comprehension was as good. In contrast, with analytic phonics teaching, although the boys performed as well as the girls in word reading, they had inferior spelling and reading comprehension. Overall, the group taught by synthetic phonics had better word reading, spelling, and reading comprehension. There was no evidence that the synthetic phonics approach, which early on teaches children to blend letter sounds in order to read unfamiliar words, led to any impairment in the reading of irregular words. Keywords Synthetic phonicsAnalytic phonicsOpaque orthography The English spelling system has an opaque orthography; although it is an alphabetic system, some spellings have inconsistent grapheme- phoneme connections, e.g., ‘aisle’. This inconsistency in English spelling has led to models of adult reading such as the dual route model, where the pathways envisaged for the reading of words with irregular versus regular spelling-sound correspondences are seen as largely independent (Coltheart, Rastle, Perry, Langdon, & Ziegler, 2001). A substantial literature has examined whether individuals take a phonological approach to reading English, determined by whether their responses to irregular words are slower and less accurate than to regular words; it has been found that these effects are shown in both children and adults (e.g., Waters, Seidenberg, & Bruck, 1984).
