The right of Coreen Burt to be identified as the author of the Burt Reading Scheme has been asserted by her in accordance with the Copyright, Designs and Patents Act 1988. THE PURCHASE OF THE BURT READING SCHEME ALLOWS THE PURCHASER TO PRINT COPIES FOR INDIVIDUAL PUPILS ONLY AND NOT FOR DISTRIBUTION OR SALE TO OTHERS 2

THE BURT READING SCHEME The BURT READING SCHEME has been in the making for the past 30 years. It is a finely graded, multi-sensory reading scheme that has been developed from very simple beginnings as hand written flashcards and wall charts in 1978. The scheme has been refined and re-developed taking on board the latest developments and techniques in the teaching of dyslexic children and children who are slow to read The scheme has been tested and retested at each stage of its development and adjustments made so that the scheme is effective in the teaching of slow readers and dyslexic children. The scheme is also effective in the teaching of EAL learners. The BURT READING SCHEME comprises 8 MODULES covering all the phonic sounds from the sounds of the letters of the alphabet to more complex combinations such as PH or GH. Each module is accompanied by a variety of activities which ensure consolidation of the particular sound being learned. TEACHER/TUTOR INSTRUCTIONS There is no teacher/tutor instruction booklet because the instructions and explanations have been included on each page of the scheme in a lilac box. A very small typeface has been used so as not to confuse the pupil with extra words on the page. PHONIC SPELLING SCHEME The BURT READING SCHEME incorporates spelling tuition throughout. We believe that the teaching of phonics incorporates both reading and spelling and that the learning of reading and spelling occurs systematically and automatically throughout the BURT READING SCHEME The BURT READING SCHEME is presented in A4 format. Printed in its A4 size it is suitable for very young readers, partially sighted readers and those dyslexic children who would benefit from a large, clear typeface. If 2 sheets per page are printed, the typeface is still large and clear and is suitable for children and adult learners who are comfortable with a slightly smaller font. The BURT READING SCHEME incorporates a variety of techniques to engage the pupil in the learning process and to promote rapid progress in their reading and spelling abilities. Hand writing exercises are also included with suggestions on how to do this. The initial sounds are presented in 2 formats: 1. As A5 cards which can be printed and laminated. 2. As worksheets that the pupil can refer to for revision and consolidation. STARTING THE BURT READING SCHEME 1. Buy a folder in which to store the worksheets. It is a good idea to buy a folder that has place for a front cover in the form of a plastic pocket incorporated on the outside. Print off the pupil s cover page and slide it into this pocket. If your folder does not have this facility then glue the cover page onto the outside of the folder. (Best then not to buy a plastic folder as this will prevent gluing of the front cover) 2. Buy a set of good quality, thin felt tip pens for the pupil to use for colour coding words. A set of highlighters will also be useful. 3. Use a new folder for each module. 4. Assess progress with the pre-tests and post-tests. 5. The scheme is best administered on a daily basis ideally from Monday to Friday in 10 20 minute sessions. A little and often is far better than longer sessions once or twice weekly. 6. You may print the whole module or more advisably perhaps just one sound and its accompanying worksheets 3 at a time.

Instructions for parents and tutors who do not have experience in teaching children to read. You have tested the pupil using the Burt Word Recognition test and from the results you have made the decision to start the pupil on Module 3. This means that the pupil has a reasonable understanding of the basic phonic sounds and is able to blend them to make a word but is still a very weak reader. Module 3 teaches the pupil to blend phonemes to produce words. The words at this stage are becoming a little more difficult. Work systematically through the worksheets. If the pupil becomes distracted, try gently to refocus their attention by doing one of the rhymes, or a clapping exercise. LESS IS MORE! 10 20 minutes per day is preferable to an hour per week and constant drip feeding and revision of the sounds will soon produce a much improved reader. Reward the pupil s efforts with stickers or good work stamps which can be purchased from most stationers. Let the pupil choose the reward and stick it on the page. Always point to the words being read and make sure that you point at the FIRST letter of the word and then move your pencil along the word READ THE SECTION ON THE BURT BOOKS WEBPAGE ENTITLED HOW DO WE LEARN TO READ This gives vital background information that will help you tutor your child correctly. IMPORTANT In the AY section of this module, I have used the names of the days of the week as well as the words TODAY YESTERDAY and HOLIDAY. Much too difficult you say. Yes they are for struggling readers BUT these are words that they need to know. I have successfully taught them to a very dyslexic child of 7. This is the method that I used: 1. I asked the child to identify the word DAY in each of the words and trace over it in red. 2. We then said the names of the days of the week together identifying the first 3 sounds of the day eg Sunday SUN. etc. 3. We then looked at each day of the week and identified what day it was by sounding out the first 3 letters. We then identified TODAY YESTERDAY AND HOLIDAY in the same way. Although I did not expect her to be able to spell these words I found that she wanted to and after a bit of effort on her part was spelling them correctly. What was really interesting was that she then recognised the days of the week quicker than the shorter AY words in the lists. 4

To the tutor: The following 3 pages are revision from module 2. By now the pupil should be able to read the words in the list with some degree of fluency. cat bill pig in chat bed less bap nest rig dill mat rest din cap fed wig fill bat Tess sill gap 5 at hill pest cob fat bin led jap lunch Jill mess hob hat hunch fin lap best kill pat Ned pin map

NOTE TO TUTOR: There are now 3 pages of AW words to drill. The first page lists the words in groups of onset and rime and with colour to help the pupil recognise the AW sound. The second page repeats the words with colour helps but the onset and rime are muddled up. The 3 rd page gives no help with colour and the onset and rime remain muddled. Explain to the pupil that all 3 pages are important and must be completed before moving on. jaw law raw paw saw thaw claw draw flaw straw hawk drawl shawl trawl trawler bawl 8 hee-haw awe awful lawn dawn fawn sawn prawn brawn yawn scrawny awning hee-haw see-saw

see-saw awful prawn scrawny paw yawn thaw awning draw flaw fawn see-saw straw hawk shawl awe trawl lawn jaw drawl law trawler raw bawl dawn hee-haw sawn claw brawn saw 9

awful trawl scrawny hee-haw yawn trawler awning flaw see-saw hawk draw brawn thaw yawn awe lawn jaw drawl law fawn raw bawl dawn straw sawn claw shawl saw prawn paw 10

TUTOR: Ask the pupil to fill in the AW sound in red and say the word. The pupil could also find other sounds that have already been learnt and make these green eg SH TH TR PR BR j str ning l h k l n r dr l d n p s th sh l tr l tr ler f n s n pr n cl b l br n dr e y n fl ful scr ny 11

Explain to the pupil that you are going to read a list of words in which all the words rhyme except one. Explain that he/she must listen carefully and tell you which word is the odd one out. Read the list of words slowly and then repeat. Ask the pupil to identify the word. Read the list again if necessary. Then ask the pupil to circle the word that he/she has identified as the odd one out. Proceed to the next list etc. The pupil must not see the words when you read them out. 1. jaw law lawn raw 2. paw dawn saw thaw 3. claw draw flaw scrawny 4. straw hawk thaw claw 5. dawn lawn shawl fawn 6. brawn raw sawn prawn 7. yawn lawn awe dawn 8. awning yawning dawn bawling 9. shawl drawl brawn trawl 12

Fill in the missing word. Help the pupil to read the sentence as there may be words that they cannot read easily. The object of the exercise is comprehension of the words that they fill in. see-saw straw hawk 1. My rabbit sleeps on. 2. I like to play on the. 3. A is a big bird. shawl lawn jaws 1. The lady wears a 2. A hippo has big. 3. Our is very green. laws raw dawn 1. That meat is. 2. The birds sing at. 3. We must obey the of our country. 13

TUTOR: The pupil should try to read these sentences using words that they have just drilled.use this as an exercise to recognise the AW words by asking the pupil to highlight the AW sound in the words. Underline the AW words. Then find the underlined words in the word search. Do not do the wordsearch during tutor time. Let the pupil do this at home for homework. 1. The hawk has big claws and jaws. 2. The lawyer keeps the law. 3. I yawn at dawn. 4. The brawn is raw and awful. 5. I saw the prawns on the trawler. 6. I will draw a scrawny fawn on the straw. 7. The frost will thaw on the lawn Underline all the AW words above and then find them in the word search below. A J S D A B S R S T R A W H A L A W Y E R D A G A D S F A D D W K A K A S W M F C L 16 A W S G S A W S W D A H S K A W K H A F D N L N H J S K J W N F T D A W N A J A W F U L K L M H R G S H F S L H D G A M A L A A F J P R A W N S L H J W S W W H A G S J A S C R A W N Y T R A W L E R F A S D G A K D J

We saw a flaw in the awful see-saw. 6. Put your paw on the lawn if it thaws. 7. Sit on the straw and hee-haw! Underline all the AW words above and then find them in the word search below. Do not do the word search during tutor time. The pupil should do this for homework in his/her own time. L E H R T S Y E R S T R Y E D R A W T A F A W N E V E B C U A V E B R E U L W Y W R U E R T P R A W N T E Y N T A N I K E T S B E C A R M E N T D R V W T U Y T C A B R A W N T Y S H A W L Y C L A W B W Y T M N V R U A A W R U E T E V R T E R U E Y F L A W W N N T R R A W N I N G T R Y V B R T A V P A W H E E H A W Y A W F U L E R S T R A W 17

SPELLING ASSESSMENT Use the look-cover-write-check method to spell these words. If a word is spelt incorrectly repeat the process and try again in the second column. hawk flaw straw awful thaw lawn prawn draw lawyer shawl 18

DICTATION Read the sentence to the pupil. Let the pupil read the sentence and look at it carefully. Cover the sentence and write on the lines provided. Then look back and let the pupil self-assess his/her effort 1. The hawk can claw the fawn. 2. The scrawny prawn ate the raw brawn 3. She put on a shawl at dawn. 4. Draw back the awning for the lawyer. 5. Put the straw on the lawn and yawn. 19

Another check to assess the pupil s progress with the AW words before moving on to reading sentences using these words. If the words are all read correctly the first time the pupil need only read them once. If some of the words have dots next to them then these must be repeated until the pupil scores 3 ticks. Fawn shawl trawl scrawny raw yawn awe dawn trawler awning flaw jaw draw brawn thaw awful lawn sawn drawl law fawn bawl hawk straw see-saw claw hee-haw saw prawn paw 20

Note to tutor: The pupil should be able to read the story as all the words have been covered in the section. When filling in the sentences ask the pupil to read the sentences. They can say the word something where there is a line and then find the missing word from the text. They should attempt the write the word without looking back at the text. The Scrawny Fawn The fawn is scrawny. See the fawn on the lawn. Dad will give the fawn raw brawn. No dad. A fawn does not have brawn. The fawn will eat straw. Raw brawn is awful. Put the shawl on the fawn. Where is the fawn? Can a fawn eat prawns? No! The fawn is over there.. I see the fawn at dawn on the lawn. The fawn is. The fawn is on the. Give the fawn brawn. The will eat. Raw is, Put the on the fawn. Where is the? Can a fawn eat. I see the fawn at on the. 21

Note to tutor: The pupil should be able to read the story as all the words have been covered in the section. When filling in the sentences ask the pupil to read the sentences. They can say the word something where there is a line and then find the missing word from the text. They should attempt the write the word without looking back at the text. if the pupil struggles to read the text, go back to the lists and read the AW lists again. The big hawk. The hawk is big. The hawk made a flaw in the awning where it sat one day. The lawyer will look at the flaw. There are two flaws. It all makes me yawn. The hawk went to sit on the lawn. Go hawk, go.

The hawk went to sit on the. Go, go. Now the hawk is on the. The straw is for the. 22

One last check to assess if the AW words have been consolidated and are now part of the pupil s reading vocabulary. If the pupil reads the words correctly the first time, he/she need not repeat 3 times. However. if some words are still causing a problem read 3 4 times until all words are marked correct. awe draw yawn jaw lawn raw hawk law scrawny brawn see-saw trawl fawn drawl claw shawl dawn bawl sawn hee-haw trawler thaw saw prawn paw awning straw flaw 23

As in previous modules, the pupil must read the words in the list. Tick those that the pupil reads correctly and put a dot in the box if the word is incorrectly read. The words must be correctly read at least 3 times. By this time the column should only have ticks in it. The new sound is printed in RED. Sounds learnt previously are in green. Remind the pupil about these sounds. If necessary go back and find the sound and revise it. Do not progress onto the worksheets following until these lists of words are said correctly and recognised easily. bail mail fail hail jail tail nail pail frail sail snail aid paid maid raid braid 24 ai. aim claim main brain plain train ++ grain stain i chain gain again drain bait

The list of words in now repeated but the words have been mixed up so that the onset and rime pattern cannot help the pupil with the words in the list. Explain this to the pupil. As before, the pupil should get all words correctly 3x before moving on. bail aid brain pail claim paid chain mail grain main frail gain maid fail plain sail 25 ai. hail aim raid train ++ jail again snail drain i tail stain braid bait nail

A final check to see if all the AI words can be read. This time the words have been mixed up and there are no colours to help with the sounds. Do not move on to the next sound until these are read without too much hesitation. Rather reprint the page and revise a little more if the pupil is not ready to move on. maid mail again hail stain tail plain bait frail paid snail raid sail claim gain jail 34 ai fail main pail grain aid train bail chain aim braid drain nail brain

Discuss the days of the week with the pupil. Ask them to tell you what their activities are on various days of the week. Read the weekly activities of Ray to the pupil and then read the questions. The pupil must fill in the correct day for activity. Ask the pupil to carefully look at the word and sound it out and try to write it without looking at it. On Sunday Ray went swimming. On Monday he went with his mum to the shop. On Tuesday he took the dog for a walk. On Wednesday he ate 3 icecreams. On Thursday he was ill in bed! On Friday he went rock climbing.
