Synopsis

In the evolution of writing, we have designated symbols to represent the sounds of spoken language. We have, in essence, created our own code. The sound-symbol correspondence that has been developed for the English language is called "The English Code". In order for students to properly master the components of our language, breaking the “code” proves to be a monumental, yet crucial, task. As very few students naturally make the association between letters and sounds, the English “code” must be explicitly taught and drilled until the associations from symbol to sound and sound to symbol are automatic. This work provides a systematic and forensic approach to mastering the English language and a solid foundation for reading, writing, and spelling skills for students who are struggling with language acquisition.
