I use visual aids and physical props to help the development of my pupil’s ability to hear and understand what is being read - to read for meaning. One activity which I use is highly structured and consists of a jumbled sentence with individual words printed on individual lily pads.(The words when assembled correctly make a sentence.)
Paper crocodiles are stuck to the floor (the river) and a puppet called Crazy Cow has to get across the river safely by using the lily pads.
My pupil then assembles the lily pad words in a line. When he is happy , he will read the sentence he has made out loud as he makes the puppet hop across. It is a very useful assessment activity also for me too. It gives valuable insights into the thought processes of the child and how he is processing visual and auditory information, as he tends to voice all his thoughts aloud during the process.
