Visual Phonics

I thought seeing the video about visual phonics was really cool. I actually saw a teacher use this technique during my site visit. The students were learning about decimals for the first time, so when she introduced the word she and the interpreter used visual phonics to help the know how to read and say the word. At that time I had no idea what they were doing. I had never seen visual phonics before, but after class Monday night it all makes sense.

  2. I had never seen them either but the concept was very interesting and I believe that it could benefit a lot of students. It's cool how you saw it being done and could go back into our classroom and learn about the concept

  3. I actually took a class last semester that showed us what visual phonics is. It was really interesting to see how kids incorporate visual phonics when it comes to speech sounds. It is actually harder than what it looks. But I enjoyed learning some of it and it actually can help in the classroom.

  5. I liked the video too! I had never heard of visual phonics, but it's a very interesting concept/strategy and looks as though it works pretty well and benefits many students!
