Five Bridges to Higher Words, Syllable Power
Five Bridges, the main component of STRIPSS, uses syllabication as a decoding intervention. Experience shows that about eighty percent of students struggling with word decoding at the secondary level know their phonics but cannot use it because they perceive multisyllabic words as strings of letters. Along with the five rules for breaking words into syllables, the basic phonic and morphemic elements are developed from fundamental level to application at high school level in multisyllabic words.

High Powered Phonics, which is used with students who have completed Five Bridges to Higher Words, uses the decoding strategy of structural analysis to develop word decoding from middle school to college level. HP Phonics fosters the application of the five syllable rules with the visual patterning of multiple prefixes and suffixes.

Flash Power uses flashcard strategies, in the teacher's choice of PowerPoint presentations or flashcards, to further develop the visual-auditory aspects of long and short vowels, final e, the open-closed syllable, and hard-soft c and g, for secondary students still weak in the basic development of phonics. Flash Power is especially applicable to the cooperative-group game format.
