Seeing Stars ManualSeeing Stars®: Symbol Imagery for PHONEMIC AWARENESS,
READING & SPELLING (SI™)

2 day course - $549

The two day Seeing Stars® (SI™) workshop introduces techniques to stimulate the ability to create mental representations (symbol imagery) for sounds and letters within words. The SI™ techniques develop symbol imagery for consonants and vowels and extend through single and multisyllable words as a means of processing both sounds and letters within words. This sensory processing provides a base for both phonological and orthographic competency in reading and spelling, therefore phonetic processing, sight words, spelling accuracy, and contextual reading fluency can be developed. Concepts and techniques are presented through lecture/discussion, demonstration, videotape, and supervised practice. Class includes the SI™ manual.

Sensory-Cognitive Assessments
1 day course - $449






LAC-3 Test
The focus of this portion of the workshop is on the administration of the LAC-3 Test, which is acclaimed as one of the most sensitive measures of phonemic awareness today. The LAC-3 Test administration will be modeled and practiced. Relationships to other measures will also be discussed.


OPAL™ Test: Orthographic and Phonological Awareness for Literacy
The OPAL™ Test is a sensitive measure of the ability to visualize the identity, number, and sequence of letters in single and multisyllable words. Data indicates the test is highly correlated with phoneme awareness (as measured by the LAC-3 Test), word attack, word recognition, spelling, and paragraph decoding (reading rate and accuracy combined). This portion of the workshop presents the data and is designed to prepare participants to administer and interpret the test. Case studies will be presented and discussed.
