SKILL INTRODUCTION
CHARACTER INTRODUCTION
Voweletics gets your child excited to learn.
Each new Voweletics lesson gets kicked off with the Character Introduction. Voweletics characters serve as the guide words for particular vowel sounds. Your child will identify with the characters and remember the vowel sounds by associating with the character. These short audio files bring each character to life and encourage the use of imagination.
Meet Fern! Fern owns Fern's Cafe on Main Street in Readersville. She is the vowel character found in Lesson 10 and helps to teach a special vowel sound spelled with er ir ur.
CHARACTER SONG
Songs are loved by children and approved by parents.
Each Voweletics character has its own Character Song. These creative songs from varying genres were especially created for the Voweletics program. They provide a fun and memorable way for children to learn. Your child will identify with the characters through their songs; helping them to recall the vowel sound the character helps to teach.
It's time to get your groove on. We guarantee your toes will be tapping, and you'll have a smile on your face after listening to Fern Start Stir'n.
RULE SONG
Catchy tunes make rules easy to remember.
Rule songs teach when to use different vowel sounds heard in words. The rules are visually represented on color-coded charts and provide a quick reference for deciphering correct vowel sounds. These charts are used repeatedly throughout the program.

CHARTING PRACTICE
Put a stop to guessing at words.
Charting Practice teaches each lesson. In these videos, your child will learn how to use the Voweletics method to accurately sound out words. When children understand how & why different vowel sounds are heard, they can duplicate their knowledge in reading thousands of words and not rely on memorization when reading and spelling.
The Charting Practice videos average less than 10 minutes of teaching instruction. Watch a short excerpt of this Charting Practice to see how your child will chart a word.
SKILL ACTIVITIES
WORD LISTS
Word Lists provide a list of words that have the vowel sound and pattern taught in each lesson. Children successfully practice reading words that follow the rules they are learning. Word Lists also help to build vocabulary, and with their accompanying audio files, fluency is built. In addition, cumulative Word Lists provide an excellent review of learned skills.
READER'S THEATER
Reader’s Theater consists of leveled poems, letters or song lyrics for children to practice repeated reading. This strategy is proven to increase reading fluency, demonstrate proper reading expression and build the reader’s confidence.
