The final in the Montessori phonetic reading series, which consists of 33 digraph boxes, and envelopes split into families and extras. This material provides the Child with an in-depth understanding of the use of digraph combinations with alternative spellings. Constant repetition of the new sounds through images, words, word building, word lists, booklets, and sentences, allows the Child to grasp the new sounds.

As a bonus, we give you an acrylic stand to hold 5 folders, for free!

The Montessori Green Reading Series:
The third, and final step in the Montessori phonetic reading range, continues the work of the pink & blue reading series. The green series provides the Child with an in-depth understanding of words, using digraph (phonogram) combinations. The Child must learn to recognise the digraph first, and then to sound it out correctly.

The Child learns through repetition. This system is designed on the following format; for each of the individual digraphs found in 9 families; and 5 extra groups, follow these steps:

Work through each Digraph before moving onto the next one:
start with the small, square box
match the word to the image, found in the small box
using the 2 different colour alphabets (Printed Alphabets, sold separately), the Child builds the word, as seen in the image
move onto the green word list in the green envelope. These are new words, but still repeat the same digraph
next, work through the booklet of words
finally, the complex sentence uses words reflecting the digraph being studied. The Child reads with ease now
once all digraphs of the 1st family are completed, the Child reviews their work using the summary word list
Repetition helps the Child to read smoothly, with understanding:
Working through each set of digraphs, the Child absorbs a thorough understanding of the vowel, and consonant digraph combinations. Only through repetitive use of these vowel / consonant combinations, do they begin to absorb this knowledge, and instinctively grasp the sound that the digraphs make. By mastering digraphs, the direct objective is attained, and they learn to read a word smoothly, with understanding. Indirectly, children automatically learn to spell a word correctly.

This material provides a total of 33 separate; totally individual; digraphs. Once the Child works through all 9 families, and 5 extra digraph combinations, they can advance onto the 30 lists of additional 180 words. Each of these additional words has a unique spelling, and do not form part of the digraph families.

____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
DIGRAPH. A term in ORTHOGRAPHY for two LETTERS that represent one sound, such as “th” in “this” and “sh” in “ashes”. If three letters together represent a single sound, they constitute a trigraph, such as “tch” in “catch” and “sch” in “schmaltz”. When letters form digraphs, they surrender their independent sound values so as to stand as a group for a single phoneme, usually because an alphabet has no letter to serve that purpose. – https://www.encyclopedia.com/
