对单词作拼写标记符号,是音图+拼写规则法PHONICS的另一独有的特色,孩子作标记的过程,其实就是一个思考分析过程,是一种主动的音图和规则应用活动,而不是被动的接收,所以孩子在学习过程中,往往会有很大的成就感,获得学习的快乐。
这套符号,虽然很简单,只用了横线、弧线、数字等等简单符号,却非常有用处,能够使孩子清清楚楚地看到单词的拼写结构,看到音形的对应。
这套符号,是美国Writing Road to Reading作者Spalding女士首创,成为这种拼写读学习法的一大特色。YESPHONICS官网上对这套符号的价值是这样说的:

47. What is the value of marking the spelling words?
The marking system of the spelling words causes the student to analyze the word and respond with a kinesthetic action that reinforces the correct spelling.
The marking system helps us to define the way our language works. This simple system uses underlining, numbers, x’s and brackets. These markings tell us how to pronounce words that are spelled the same but are pronounced differently, which phonograms are used, which Silent Final e is used, and which sound of the phonogram’s sequence is used etc.
Dr. Sylvia Farnham-Diggory, “Schooling” (1990) explains: “Spalding’s most remarkable contribution is her invention of the marking system that enables children to connect spelling rules to reading. The marking system is the bridge that connects spelling to reading. After a few hours of practice children find themselves spontaneously marking, mentally, words they see on street signs, buildings, and so on. They “see” these words in their marked form. They are developing, in effect, a coded sight vocabulary. They are not merely recognizing words by sight but are, at the same time, recognizing, what parts of them embody generalizable rules. This provides the student with guidelines for reading by analogy.”
