This Structured Literacy video series is going to focus on the small shifts you can start implementing in your classroom tomorrow to begin aligning your instructional practices with a structured literacy approach based on the Science of Reading research. • This second video in our Structured Literacy series is going to focus on shift #2 where we will begin to change our prompts when students are stuck on a word. • Over the last twenty to thirty years, we have been prompting students with reading cues to help them figure out unknown words they come to as they are reading. These cues have become known as the 3 cues, the 3 cueing system, or 3 sources of information, also known as MSV in the literacy world. These cues have prompted students to basically guess the word he/she is stuck on while reading using the MSV cues - or Meaning, Syntax, and Visual cues. • The use of these cues or 3 sources of information have led to many children not learning how to decode words, as they were not being taught HOW to decode words. They were being taught how to figure out the word using other sources of information, like the picture on the page, what word could make sense based on the context of the story, or looking at the initial grapheme and thinking about the phonetic similarities among the word on the page and the word the student reads. It is believed that the use of these cues has caused many children to not learn how to read. • Therefore, I am hopeful that this second small shift will help you begin making incremental changes in your instructional practices that will ensure your students learn the code and begin to develop solid decoding strategies. • ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ • • Structured Literacy with E.A.S.E.: https://www.structuredliteracy.com/
