Publication number: 20230290264Abstract: Modern research in the science of reading has shed light on how the human brain learns to read and write. Scientists now understand reading is not based on visual memory, but a process of orthographic mapping where students connect the sounds and meaning of a word to the sequence of letters that spell the word. A teaching tool is presented that utilizes phoneme and grapheme manipulatives designed to be arranged by students to build words in a word building area. Instructional grid lines promote orthographic mapping, aiding the development of student's understanding of phoneme-grapheme correspondence. A durable, zippable enclosure allows for portability and safe keeping. A storage compartment for grapheme manipulatives that have not been introduced yet, along with a phoneme and grapheme presentation areas help students stay organized without being overwhelmed. Gradually introducing new graphemes promotes the systematic and cumulative practice recommended by modern research in literacy.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 13, 2023Publication date: September 14, 2023Inventor: Jennifer Renee Kasino Dezelle
