I am a Reading recovery teacher and often work with children who have little sound symbol correspondence. We give our students the observation Survey and Identify stregths and weaknesses. We make an ABC book and have the kids pick a picture from various common pictures to represent each known letter/sound. We also teach kids slow articulation and use Elkonin sound boxes to help them hear and record sounds in words. The words that they are working on come from their own writing "stories"and thus have more meaning and will be retained easier then the arbitrary "letter of the week". We also "Make and break" words onsets and rimes using a word that they know in reading/writng as the base word. This seems to help them enourmously. Hpe this helps
