See the Sound - Visual Phonics© is a multi-sensory approach to teaching reading, language, and writing skills. It is a system which associates each sound in our language with a hand gesture graphic symbol. See the Sound - Visual Phonics© links speech sounds to our other senses in a natural progression. The mouth movements for each phoneme are then mirrored in a hand gesture. The gesture in turn is reflected in a written symbol. This session will provide an overview of the strategy and validating research. a sample of the gestures and written symbols will be shared. Upon completion, participants will not be qualified to implement the strategy in instruction. (k-3)
