Help students build language skills with just one book and free resources - by Canadian author and publisher Janet Denison - Soundpatternz.com

Will your student have the literacy skills they need to succeed?

Or will they be one of the 40% who don't?

Canadian adults who have not been fortunate enough to acquire basic levels of education in school are at risk of slipping through the cracks. Canada's adult literacy rate is worse than it was a decade ago.

Seven million working-age Canadian adults - about four in ten - do not have the literacy skills necessary to function in the workplace.

Canada's economic boom in the last 10 years has so far protected many of these people. Conference Board research shows, however, that people with low literacy skills have weaker attachments to the labour market and generally do not do well in economic downturns.

Not just adults are at risk.

According to the 2003 Program for International Student Assessment, "40% of Canadian Youths aged 15 had literacy scores below the adequate level."
(Using an IALSS - International Adult Literacy and Skill Survey- basis.)

Literacy boosts earning potential.

The average income level of individuals with strong literacy skills was more than double the income of those with poor literacy skills and significantly greater than those with weak literacy skills. Does your student run the risk of becoming a wage slave?

So many students are falling between the cracks.

Would you like to help?

If you can read a book to a student,
you can help them build the skills they need to succeed!

Our book, Perfect Practice with Common Words,
was written for people like you - the ones who care the most.

With just one book, you can help your student discover the patterns in words, and watch their skills and confidence grow exponentially once they've discovered these hidden patterns.

You will give them the advantage of the best learning techniques,
and learning acceleration techniques, as they practice:

- All common words
- All common homophones (1 in 6 common words, such as "sea" and
"see", or "hear" and "here")
- Common words and key words that include every spelling for every sound
and every common sound combination

Yes, our elevator can take your student all the way to the top floor.
Best of all, you get to go along for the ride.

Unfortunately, most language teaching takes the long route...

... by starting with the 10,000 words in an average vocabulary, adding in a few dozen spelling rules, and their few dozen exceptions, and ending with copious amounts of reading and writing.

But, there is so much less to learn than most people think...

- 90% of speech consists of only 2,000 words
- There are only 42 sounds in words
- There are only 208 different ways to spell the sounds in words

Soundpatternz™ makes learning FAST, FUN, and EASY!

FAST - You'll use the 20% Rule or Pareto's Principle

This rule states that 20% of the effort produces 80% of the results. We've followed Pareto's Principle and reduced the amount your student needs to practice by 80%. So, you can accelerate your student's learning by concentrating your efforts on the core 20%.

FUN - You'll use the 3 R's...

When the core 20% of words is organized into small groups of words with one or more sounds in common, learning becomes a lot more fun. Think of how much easier it is to learn and remember the words of a song or a poem than it is to remember the words of a paragraph. We can promise you extraordinary results because you'll use the 3 R's, rhyme, rhythm and repetition, to make learning and remembering just that much easier, and a lot more fun.

EASY - You'll use Power-Assisted Learning

The 3 R's, rhyme, rhythm and repetition, help your student utilize "the power of the pattern". Remember the joke about what cows drink? Someone asks you to say "silk" five times. Then they ask you to spell the word "silk". Finally, they ask you, "What do cows drink?" The usual answer given is 'milk'; but, of course, cows drink water.

The pattern is so powerful, that it overcomes common sense.

Imagine using this power to enhance learning.
Try this, and pay attention to the power of the pattern:

Say "stop" 5 times.
Spell "stop".
What do you do at a green light?

Could you feel the pull of the pattern?

As your student practices with the word groups, they will use this power to improve their language skills. At first, they'll notice the power working, but soon they'll begin to use it automatically and effortlessly.

As they become aware of the patterns in words, your student will actually feel the difference. As one student said, "It's as if my brain is working differently now." With this new power, your student will be able to overcome challenges in a way they never thought possible.

Keep them talking...

Want your student's reading and spelling skills to improve? Let them talk! What student wouldn't want to be the center of attention as they talk their way to mastery? When you practice together with our specially formatted book, your student will learn to connect the sounds in the words they hear & speak, to the letters in the words they read & write.

I can see how my student can benefit. What am I getting myself into? Your next 3 steps...

The sad truth is...
With today's large class sizes and reduced educational budgets, it has become increasingly difficult for all students to access the type of learning they require.

Now, with your help, the best available methods can give your student a shortcut to success...

You will need 20 to 30 hours to complete the book if your student is just beginning to read and write common words.

If your student already uses or understands most of the common words, you'll need about 10 hours to complete 30 short (20 minute) sessions.

The method you use will cater to your student's individual needs. Beginners will focus on the meaning and spelling of words, more advanced students will focus on filling knowledge gaps and improving fluency.
