HOW TO LEARN A LETTER ill

Make an index card with the letter ill on it in black

Then make one in red

And then make one in green.

And another in blue.

Then make a set of index cards in big letters and again in black, red, blue, and green.

Do the same with small letters and really big letters.

Why the different sizes and colors? Because while linear learner might be able to see that a letter in a different font is still the same letter many of these kids(fragmented learners) cannot. So we learn it in different colors, different sizes, and different fonts.

Now you should have a deck that looks like this.

ill	ill	ill	ill
ill	ill	ill	ill
ill	ill	ill	ill
ill	ill	ill	ill

Show the card with a ill on it

ill

and say

What is this letter?

The only acceptable answer is ill.

only ill is acceptable

There are no associations, illustrations, or hints of any type.

What is this

ill

ILL

Do not say ill like in pill or bill

Do not draw it

Do not do anything except say

What is this and show the card.

ILL is the only acceptable answer.

If he gets it wrong. No big deal. Don't sigh or frown or get angry. Just say, “no this is ill”.

Do it as much as possible. 10 times per day minimum, thirty times per day is better. Each episode should last less than thirty seconds. Ten times a day only comes out to 5 minutes per day. Do it day after day until he gets it. Two days two weeks, who cares? Just keep doing it until he gets it and then go on to the next letter.

Once he gets these cards we need to add different fonts. This is because while a regular learner might be able to see that a letter in a different font is the same letter many of these kids cannot. So we learn it in different fonts.

Now make some cards in verdana because this is what they use on computers.

Also make them in times roman because that is the way books are written

ill	ill	ill	ill	verdana
ill	ill	ill	ill	times new roman
ill	ill	ill	ill	arial

Do it the in the morning at the breakfast table.

Do it in the car.

Do it at the movies.

Do it during television-during every single commercial

Hang it up all over the house.
