Cued Articulation - Consonants and Vowels

Product Information

Cued Articulation describes how to cue consonant sounds while Cued Vowels describes the 23 standard English vowel sounds. Hampshire schools should submit this online booking request to book a place, remembering to include the contact name and SAP user-id of the finance/business officer. As tutors become familiar with the system they will realise how useful CA is, and in how many situations it can be used. There were no significant differences between groups on measures relating to phonics knowledge and attitudes towards learning.

So we support the use of phonics with a visual cue that cues our children to our lips, so while they are listening they are watching how these sounds are formed at the mouth and supporting the development of their lip reading skills as well as their phonics.Jane Passy devised the cues while working as a Speech Pathologist with a group of children with severe speech and language problems. It is a helpful tool to promote reading fluency, particularly in blending and segmenting multi-syllable words. Log in The main round application deadline for a school place in Year R for September 2024 has now closed, however you can still make a "Late" application. When children are first attempting to sound out and blend words or trying to listen for the sounds in words, Cued Articulation can help. This is represented by starting the sign where the sound is made so ‘p’ and ‘b’ start on the lips where as ‘k’ and ‘g’ start down on your throat.

It is useful for speech pathologists, speech and language therapists, remedial and recovery teachers and primary teachers in the classroom. To use CA in its most simple form, the practitioner only needs knowledge of the system, 12 coloured pencils and enthusiasm. They are easy to learn and help children with auditory processing difficulties to "see" the difference between similarly sounding, paired voiced and unvoiced letter sounds e. For example a ‘p’ which is a voiceless, bilabial, plosive – meaning no voice box, made with both lips and it’s a popping sound – is made by putting your index finger and thumb together, putting them by the corner of your mouth and then pulling them apart as you say the sound.

Findings lend support to the effectiveness of multisensory phonics methods, particularly when used to support children who are experiencing difficulties with reading.

The empirical paper examines the effectiveness of Cued Articulation as a method to enhance whole-class phonics teaching. This will allow SfYC to raise an Internal Supplier Request for the school to complete and make payment.Participants were 154 children, aged four to five years, attending a mainstream setting in the South-East of England. Each of the 49 sounds (phonemes) that make up the English phonological system has a separate hand sign - related to where and how, in the mouth, the sound is made. In their daily Phonics lessons, they learn to link a sound (phoneme) with its written letter (grapheme). Below is a list of the cued articulation actions which accompany the letters of the alphabet they will be taught. We both find Cued Articulation really useful for teaching new sounds – it really helps children to have a sign to attach to the sound.
