Why Language Tutor ?
Language Tutor
provides an interactive, audiovisual
experience that is appropriate for a wide range of
students: struggling students in general education
classrooms and special needs programs, ELL/ESL learners,
and students who receive speech and language
intervention.
The system uses a multisensory, model-and-response strategy
for language acquisition. Students
see
the target words on
the cards,
listen
to them being spoken on the Teacher
track, and
repeat
them as many times as needed,
progressing independently and at their own pace. When
ready, students record themselves speaking the words and
compare their speech with the Teacher track, building their
skills and confidence in a systematic and motivating way.
Perfect for differentiated instruction, individual students,
and small groups,
Language Tutor
makes an excellent guided
or center activity.
What's on the Lesson Cards?
This card set introduces and reinforces important
beginning reading skills, including recognizing rhyming
word families and identifying letter patterns in words.
Each card presents a high-utility word family
(phonogram) and two full-color photographs. The word
families include most of the 37 high-utility phonograms
identified by Wylie and Durrell (1970). According to these
researchers, nearly 500 primary-grade words can be
derived from just these 37 phonograms.
Language Tutor
reads
each card’s unique bar
code and speaks the
target words.
Cards are color-coded
and numbered for
easy identification.
The target words
are shown in big,
bold letters with
special emphasis
on the target
word family.
Full-color photographs
illustrate the words.
The target word family
is shown in isolation.
