ABSTRACT:
A method of teaching a set of indicia as representations of language sounds by associating each symbol with an event, or phonetic phenomenon, which produces the sound. In this manner, the sounds are presented in isolation rather than as an element of the oral form of a word. In addition to the combination of sound, event and symbol, the method uses a distinct gesture with each sound to ensure the proper articulation of that sound and to allow the student to become an active participant in the event. The method allows the student to acquire a set of symbols to represent language sounds without requiring the separation of an individual sound from a word. Instead, soniferous events are used to allow the student to make a meaningful connection between each symbol and the sound it represents.
