mnemonic cue for “resolution”

Teach a word finding cue for “resolution” today!resolution

 

Before you know it, winter break will be upon us and you won’t see your school-based speech kids until after the New Year. “Resolution” is a tough word for many word finders to retrieve.  Associate “res” with “red,” and “sol” with “sold” or “salt.”  The tiny picture in the upper right shows “red salt.”  Use whichever cue is more meaningful to your students.

Make the syllables explicit.  Tap or clap them out.  Remind the kids to think the cue but say the target word aloud.  Say the word 5 times, use it in a sentence, and get a high 5.  For a review of Dr. Diane German’s 5-step process, please scroll down to my post of November 4.
