Visual Phonics for Speech-Language Pathologists - 24755

This two-day workshop explores the multi-sensory Visual Phonics program and its benefits in reinforcing oral language, speech, literacy, and writing skills for students who are deaf/hard of hearing, bilingual, or possess diverse learning needs. This hands-on workshop develops the skills necessary to implement Visual Phonics in therapeutic and instructional settings and explores research-based strategies to support beginning spelling and reading instruction with the support of Visual Phonics. Participants are provided opportunities to practice the following techniques for teaching: 1) Letter recognition/matching/naming/formation, 2) Phonemic awareness (K-2), 3) Phoneme-grapheme (sound-symbol) association, 4) Blending of one-syllable decodable words, 5) Recognition of irregular words, and 6) Building accuracy and speed in word recognition. An application for ASHA CEUs is pending.
