Major(s) of all individuals presenting this work Bio of all individuals presenting this work I am currently an Elementary Education student at FSU Panama City, pursuing my passion for teaching and making a positive impact in the lives of children. I am deeply committed to helping students grow academically and personally while creating a classroom environment that is supportive, inclusive, and inspiring. Outside of school, I enjoy spending time with family and friends, being outdoors, cooking, and focusing on health and wellness. I believe that joy, balance, and strong relationships are the foundation for both personal and professional success. Poster Title Abstract This study investigated the impact of targeted phonics instruction on a third-grade English Language Learner’s ability to decode words containing low-frequency vowel patterns and silent consonants. Assessment data identified specific gaps in patterns including aw/au, oi/oy, ough, eigh, and wr/bt. A structured intervention incorporating explicit instruction, guided practice, and multisensory activities was implemented in a small group setting. Comparison of pre- and post-assessment results indicated improved decoding accuracy and increased student confidence. These findings support the effectiveness of data-driven, targeted phonics instruction in developing advanced decoding skills.
