Sort Out Your Syllables teaches a simple strategy for decoding, pronouncing, and spelling multisyllabic words using knowledge of phonemes and the alphabetic code.
The strategies taught make it easier for students to read and write multisyllabic words, which in turn promotes tremendous growth in reading and writing.
Sort Out Your Syllables starts with two short assessments that identify the gaps in skills for reading and spelling unfamiliar multisyllabic words, followed by a series of fast, effective, 10-minute lessons that close the gaps.
Sort Out Your Syllables is available in New Zealand/Australia and US editions in both physical and digital formats.
This book teaches simple strategies that get around the complex and often confusing syllabification rules that many students simply cannot use. It provides teachers with an opportunity to make a real difference to students who say, “I can’t read (or write) that word — it’s too long!”

The poster-size Wall Chart illustrates the nine types of vowel spelling patterns and 60 examples of patterns that represent them. It provides students with a comprehensive reference point for recalling these patterns along with examples of words that contain them.
Students can also refer to the vowel spelling patterns using their own copies of the Desktop Card.
