70 hours of OG (#OrtonGillingham) #dyslexia / #reading training done. Was intense but well worth it. Finally kind-of-sort-of on summer break (but still doing #CyberSecurity class also, so ...). Going to go back and review all the materials over the next few weeks, though.

Looking forward to working with students next school year. Looking forward to doing some research on using it with #EnglishLearners, also. Seems to be a gap in the research there.

Updated the word list creator and the blending practice pages.

Also added a sound checker --- shows you which sounds you have taught but haven't included as well as (and prolly more important) any sounds your lesson plan includes that you haven't taught yet.

Sound Checker

Paste a word list or a reading passage and see which phonics sounds — digraphs, trigraphs, glued/welded sounds, blends, vowel teams — appear and which are missing, checked against what you've taught. For English Learners and young readers.
