S.O.S.

Baseball

By: Emily Gibbons

Dear Educator,

Thank you for your purchase! S.O.S. or Simultaneous

Oral Spelling is a 6 –step, multisensory spelling

strategy . Visual, auditory, and kinesthetic learning

modalities are all engaged, making this an effective

brain- based method for spelling words. It is typically

used during an Orton Gillingham lesson, but may be

incorporated into any word study class. Read my blog

post on how to use S.O.S. by clicking here.

S.O.S. Baseball is a motivating way to practice the

steps of S.O.S. using a baseball diamond. Just follow

the simple directions on page three to play. Laminate

the game board on page 4 and baseballs on page 5.

Write the words you wish to practice on the baseballs

with a dry erase marker and reuse again.

I hope you’ll take a minute to leave feedback on this

game, and follow my store for news on my latest

products, freebies and sales.

Thanks again!
