The Seeing Stars Kit provides the tools you need to implement the Seeing Stars program by Nanci Bell. The Seeing Stars reading program is unique in its focus on the development of symbol imagery: the ability to visualize the identity, number, and sequence of letters within words. By developing symbol imagery, students are better able to anchor and retain words in their visual memory, improving reading and spelling skills.
The Seeing Stars Kit contains the following materials for one-to-one, small-group, or classroom instruction:
- Seeing Stars Manual - outlining the research and theory behind the Seeing Stars program, as well as the specific instructional steps.
- Consonant and Vowel Cards - to help students form rapid sound-letter associations by developing symbol imagery
- Sounds and Symbols Charts - to track student progress through the letters and sounds.
- Syllable Boards - for finger-writing activities that develop symbol imagery and spelling skills.
- Syllable Card Set - five boxes of cards cover single-syllable through multisyllable real and nonsense words, to help students establish decoding and spelling skills.
- Star Words Cards Box - for the 500 most-commonly written English words, to develop sight-word recognition.
- Star Words List - for the 1000 most-commonly written English words, to guide and track student progress in sight-word reading and spelling.
- Student Progress Charts for Syllable Cards & Star Words - colourful charts with star stickers for students to record their progress through the program materials.
- Prefixes & Suffixes Cards - to develop instant recognition of common word beginnings and endings, for application to reading and spelling.
- Visual Spelling Charts - to develop both the phonological and visual-memory aspects of accurate spelling.
- Seeing Stars Program Checklist - to track student progress through the program steps.
