As students proceed through the lessons, more story groups are available for reading aloud. In the first story groups, the language is quite controlled. In later story groups, after students have mastered a large percentage of the phonics patterns of English, the language increasingly resembles the language of ordinary texts the student will see at school or in the library.
*Find the required lessons by selecting 120 Lessons from the top tab of the website.
120 lessons start with introducing letters and letter sounds. Then students read and write words like “cat” and “fib.” Students learn more sophisticated phonics, affixes, and spellings, in a step-by-step way. By the end, they are reading and writing words like “communication” and “chrysanthemum.”

Oral language provides a foundation for communication of ideas and intelligent conversation, and the development of other language skills. Before students achieve proficiency in reading and writing, oral language is one of the most important means of learning and of acquiring knowledge.
Things to consider when selecting words to teach:
•Teach words that are central to the concept students must learn.
•Teach only words students do not already know.
•Teach students to use context clues, when available.
•Teach only a few words at a time so meaning is retained.
•Relate new words to previously learned words.
•Provide multiple exposures to words.
The work that teachers do varies greatly, but they are connected by their belief the power of talk. During the year these teachers supported oral language in their own way. This projected used an appreciative inquiry model to support and capture the widely divergent strategies, learnings, and support teacher's individual needs while supporting oral language development in the classroom.
Hopefully you can find some oral language activities in this handout that you can use in your classroom. Thank you for working to support the oral language abilities of the students on Saskatchewan’s Hutterite Colonies!
Oral language forms the basis of all reading and writing.
Here are some ideas of how to teach oral language skills in your classroom.
