See it, say it, tap it, write it, and count what sticks.

Note the routines you used, then log each pattern with words read and spelled correctly. The summary shows reading and spelling accuracy pattern by pattern, which ones met your bar today, and where spelling needs catching up.

  2. Mark the routines you used and set your accuracy bar.
  3. Add each pattern with words read and spelled correctly out of those tried.
  4. Note the errors you saw.
  5. Plan the next lesson from the summary.

What the log is for

Reading and spelling together

Structured literacy teaches the same sound-symbol patterns for reading and spelling. Spelling usually lags reading, because producing a word takes more than recognizing it; a large gap is a signal to add dictation.

Multisensory routines

Saying sounds while writing, tapping each sound and building words with tiles keep the student’s attention on every sound in a word. Research support is strongest for explicit, systematic phonics; multisensory routines are one common way of delivering it.

One session is not mastery

A pattern at the bar today should be confirmed in another session and kept in cumulative practice, mixed with earlier patterns, before it is treated as secure.
