Description
A sequence for materials in English beginning reading lessons is proposed
for native speakers of Mikasuki. This sequence utilizes to the greatest
possible extent the native linguistic background of Mikasuki-speaking
students while including most of the skills taught to native English
speakers in traditional materials. The presentation is based on two
criteria: 1) an analysis of the phonological similarities and differences
between Mikasuki and English, and 2) a linguistic approach to beginning
reading instruction, which emphasizes the gradual and systematic introduction
of regular sound-spelling patterns. Using these criteria it is
possible to order the presentation of English phonemes and graphemes in
terms of their predicted difficulty for the Mikasuki-speaking student.
These are systematically presented to improve the Mikasuki-speaker's
chances of establishing a, positive achievement base at each stage of
the learning process.
