LiteraSee Concepts Illustrated cards depict the principles of teaching structured literacy to students who struggle to read and spell. I designed visual aids depicting each literacy concept while training at the Children's Dyslexia Center to engage my students fully. This collection of cards completely transformed how I tutor my students and their ability to retain and apply each lesson. I group the cards into categories to help make literacy connections and show "the big picture." After each lesson, I exhibit the corresponding concept card on the student's board to provide a convenient daily review. However, the most rewarding outcome of my work is the confidence and pride my students gain with each card added to their "wall of achievements." NOTE: Hard copy LiteraSee cards are available on the LiteraSee Concepts Illustrated website. LITERACY CONCEPT CARDS - 4.25" X 5.5" (FOUR CARDS PER 8.5" X 11" PAPER) LEVEL ONE - 37 CARDS LEVEL TWO - 59 CARDS LEVEL THREE - 27 CARDS LEVEL FOUR - 11 CARDS LEVEL FIVE - 22 CARDS LiteraSee Cards and coordinating Leveled Lesson Plans (sold separately) follow this scope and sequence: •Level One starts with learning about blends and digraphs. We use syllable types and syllable division to teach about long and short vowel sounds. Spelling rules, such as beginning and ending with the sound of /k/, are essential lessons in Level One. We end with basic grammar and an introduction to prefixes and suffixes. •Level Two mainly deals with Anglo-Saxon spelling rules and some exceptions to the rules. We introduce vowel teams and R-controlled words. Level Two ends with the meanings of prefixes, suffixes, and base words and learning how to add suffixes using the Doubling Rule. •Level Three examines Anglo-Saxon, Latin, and French influences that affect our understanding and spelling of English words. Lessons include adding suffixes to words ending with -e and -y. •Level Four primarily teaches Latin and French origins and their effect on English word spellings, sounds, and syllable divisions. We study many affixes and roots at the end of level four. •Level Five encompasses rare Anglo-Saxon, Latin, French, and Greek spellings of sounds. Greek word parts are the focus at the end of level five.

When the original Visible Learning® was published in 2008, it instantly became a publishing sensation. Interest in the book was unparalleled; it sold out in days and was described by the TES as revealing "teaching’s Holy Grail". Now John Hattie returns to this ground-breaking work. The research underlying this book is now informed by more than 2,100 meta-analyses (more than double that of the original), drawn from more than 130,000 studies, and has involved more than 400 million students from all around the world. But this is more than just a new edition. This book is a sequel that highlights the major story, taking in the big picture to reflect on the implementation in schools of Visible Learning, how it has been understood – and at times misunderstood – and what future directions research should take.Visible Learning: The Sequel reiterates the author’s desire to move beyond claiming what works to what works best by asking crucial questions such as: Why is the current grammar of schooling so embedded in so many classrooms, and can we improve it? Why is the learning curve for teachers after the first few years so flat? How can we develop teacher mind-frames to focus more on learning and listening? How can we incorporate research evidence as part of the discussions within schools? Areas covered include: The evidence base and reactions to Visible Learning The Visible Learning model The intentional alignment of learning and teaching strategies The influence of home, students, teachers, classrooms, schools, learning, and curriculum on achievement The impact of technology Building upon the success of the original, this highly anticipated sequel expands Hattie’s model of teaching and learning based on evidence of impact and is essential reading for anyone involved in the field of education either as a researcher, teacher, student, school leader, teacher trainer, or policy maker.
