What Makes Write2Spell2Read Different?
Write2Spell2Read combines movement, handwriting, vision, phonics and working memory, all at the same time
What differentiates Write2Spell2Read is that students learn at the same time the English language sounds and how to write these sounds. Teaches handwriting, spelling & reading at the same time – not separately.
Connects at the same time the 3 brain areas essential for learning literacy – auditory (hearing, speech & language), visual (sight) and motor (movement & touch). (Levine, 2002)
Multisensory with 3 brain areas working together – combines letter sounds (auditory), 44 sound pictures (visual memory), with handwriting and large body movement (motor).
Most other programs do not combine the 3 brain areas, leaving handwriting to be taught in a separate class from spelling and reading.
Researchers have found that handwriting is a critical building block for learning literacy, as motor actions reinforce memory and learning (Levine, 2002). Writing letters that spell sounds at the same time as learning sounds, helps the brain learn to read, write and spell.
Program design strengthens Working Memory – more important than IQ, and essential for literacy success.
Helps teachers by simply showing not only ‘what to teach’, but ‘how to teach’ – Teacher’s Manual and video demonstrations.
With the complex neuroscience research embedded into its design, Write2Spell2Read takes the hard work out of teaching literacy and presents a simple, easy program to implement.
