Reading and writing training for children from science for the practice
Prosodiya is an innovative support concept to improve the reading and spelling performance of primary school children with and without LRS.
With Prosodiya, children train to recognize the German language rhythm step by step. You practice dividing individual words into syllables and recognizing the stressed syllable. They then learn how to connect these linguistic rhythmic features with spelling rules. With the help of these skills, children are able to learn to read and write more systematically and easily.
Contents
- Over 400 of the most important words in the basic German vocabulary
- Visual representation of all words for better learning effect
- Child-friendly and understandable participatory explanations of the learning strategies and tasks
- Children can use Prosodiya independently without help from parents
- Exciting background story with many captivating images from the fantasy world of Prosodiya
Goals
- Recognize stress patterns and syllable boundaries
- Recognize and understand open syllables (long vowels) and closed syllables (short vowels).
- Recognize and understand consonant doubling such as pp, tt, mm, ck, tz and expansion symbols such as ie, silent h
- Spell words correctly using the features you have learned
- Continuous adjustment to the individual performance level of each child
Target group
The content of Prosodiya is the content of the 2nd and 3rd grades in most primary schools. However, the support program is also suitable for children in higher grades with reading and spelling problems.
To give teachers or learning therapists a complete overview of Prosodiya, it is possible to get an 'All Free' profile. Simply ask for the corresponding activation code by email to team@prosodiya.de.
Training recommendation
- 15 to 20 minutes per day
- 4 to 5 training days per week
- The total training duration is at least 8 weeks. Through continuous adaptation, weak children repeat more and thus train over a longer period of time.

Result of scientific research
Already in 2009 Dr. Katharina Brandelik aims to investigate whether there is a connection between children's speech rhythm skills and their reading and spelling skills. As part of her dissertation at the University of Tübingen, she was able to show that children with reading and spelling difficulties often have problems perceiving speech rhythm. For this, Dr. Brandelik received the 2014 Science Prize from the Federal Association for Dyslexia & Dyscalculia e.V.
Based on these findings, the development of the Prosodiya funding program began in 2014. Since the beginning, development has been carried out in cooperation with the University of Tübingen, Prof. Dr. Jürgen Heller, research methods and mathematical psychology and Prof. Dr. Detmar Meurers, Computer Lingustik and the Lernforum Brandelik, a tutoring and learning therapy provider. The Prosodiya research group now consists of Dr. Katharina Brandelik, Jochen Brandelik, Heiko Holz and Benedikt Beuttler.
