Phonogram Cards are color-coded cards (green for vowels, white for consonants, yellow for less commonly<br />

spelled sounds, purple for prefixes, blue for suffixes) that show one phonogram or concept each. Students<br />

engage in daily drill <strong>with</strong> these cards, in order to encourage quick recognition <strong>and</strong> recall of previously taught<br />

phonograms. S.P.I.R.E. utilizes a multisensory approach in which every lesson incorporates visual, auditory, <strong>and</strong><br />

kinesthetic modalities.<br />
