Participants will learn how to align their sound wall to their phonics scope and sequence, organize it for easy student access, introduce sounds strategically throughout the year, and build daily routines that support both reading and writing.Major Takeaways:• Plan your sound wall around instruction, not decoration.• Organize sounds and spelling patterns for easy student use.• Introduce sounds gradually rather than posting everything at once.• Use the sound wall daily to support decoding and encoding.• Create a sound wall that becomes a meaningful instructional tool all year long.Links:WebsiteRead Like a Rockstar resourcesCome join all the fun in the Teacher Summer Talks Camp Lodge.🎤 Teacher Summer Talks is hosted by Heidi and Emily and sponsored by Teacher Approved Club and Second Story Window.
