Rhyming Words and Spelling Patterns | English Language Arts Strategies for Students with Cognitive Disabilities
In this self-contained upper elementary classroom, a teacher uses an activity called Rounding Up the Rhymes. The teacher previously read a book and asked students to signal each time they heard a pair of words that rhymed. The teacher then presents pairs of words that the students identified and asks them to remove pairs that do not have the same spelling pattern. The video demonstrates effective strategies for engaging students with significant cognitive disabilities in literacy instruction.
