If you think there are words in the English language that need to be memorised as 'Sight Words (Tricky Words/ Magic Words) then come and visit an SSP classroom. Every word can be Coded using SSP. Poor working memory? No problem. You will understand how the speech sounds used to pronounce these words link with the speech sound pics (representations on paper). Its different, fast paced and FUN! Phonics teaching ends within 4 terms, and children get on with 'literacy' teaching as they can now read to learn (rather than still be learning to read) www.readaustralia.com / www.myspeedyssp.com
