I had to create a separate activity to teach the concept of an adjective. I once had an autistic student with language delays who was confused by color adjectives.
This program does not work perfectly with every child. Edmark Reading Program Review Limitations Although not pictured above, a story book is also included. The phrase cards are matched to the corresponding picture on the activity card.
The second type of matching activity (pictured in the image above in the middle) has a set of phrase cards. The first type of matching activity (pictured in the image above on the right) has a word, phrase, or sentence and the student places corresponding picture cards to match. Comprehension is taught through matching activities. The direction manual explains how to use the lesson book and activities. This program is an open-and-go style and easy to implement. If you look at the image above, Lesson book 2 is photographed and the word “tree” is visible through the overlay. The program comes with an overlay to isolate the line the child is working on. Words are first introduced using their lesson book. OverviewĮdmark teaches both word recognition, reading words in phrases, sentences, and paragraphs, and comprehension skills.
If the child can already match words, you can skip ahead to the first word lesson. Book 1 of level 1 begins with teaching these prerequisite skills. The prerequisite skills include pointing to a word on the page, matching pictures, letters, letter combinations, and words. The program can be used with children who have learning disabilities, preschoolers, ESL students, and really anyone who is having difficulty learning to read. I used this program in self-contained settings for children with intellectual disability and also with autistic children.
I have used Edmark to teach many children to read. The best whole-word curriculum I have come across is Edmark.
