"Thank you so much for the
materials. If you ever update or add anything to PhonicsQ,
I would love to know. I saw you at the CABE conference in San
Jose in February 2002. I teach a 4th/5th class of 100 percent
English language learners. We use Open Court, but I feel that
the phonics program and graphics are quite uninteresting. My
students loved using PhonicsQ,
and kept asking for it. Thanks!

"I have been using PhonicsQ
with my ESL students ever since my principal bought it. I like
the size of the cards and the posters are great. I have them
on the board space in front of our desks. Our school works with
Phonographics and the charts work together with those lessons…"

"Your suggestions really
helped me. I had to share an explicit phonics lesson with my
Thursday night class last week and in part of it I used PhonicsQ.
Everyone, including the professor wrote down your website. The
PhonicsQ has been working great! I had my students glue the
vowel combinations chart in their word notebooks. As I introduce
the cues they highlight them. The advice about continually going
back over the ones that have been introduced was very helpful.
I think that was what I needed to understand. I was getting
too worried about "mastery". It seems much more natural
now that the cues are being continually integrated- just like
your example about spelling the word "stain". My students
are using them while they're reading and spelling."

"PhonicsQ is the ultimate tool in the classroom for pronunciation.
Adult students of all levels enjoy starting each class with
the "sounds" of letters, vowels and blends. Thank
you. It is an invaluable tool for me."
