LESSON 4 - READING Flashcards
is defined as a cognitive process that involves decoding symbols to arrive at meaning.
READING
- Reading is an ______ process of constructing meanings of words.
active
- Reading with a _____ helps the reader to direct information towards a goal and focuses their attention.
purpose
- Reading is a ____ that involves recognizing words, leading to the development of comprehension.
process
The reading process involves three stages.
o Pre-Reading
o During Reading
o After Reading
allows the reader to activate background knowledge, preview the text, and develop a purpose for reading.
PRE-READING STAGE
Pre-Reading Stage
A strategy for students to utilize during this stage is to look at the _______ and list all the information that comes to mind about the title.
title of the selection
when the reader makes predictions as they read and then confirms or revises the predictions.
DURING READING
a double-entry journal enables the reader to write the text from the reading on one side and their personal reaction on the other side.
DURING READING
(Google)
to answer questions in writing–either comprehension questions at the end of a chapter or questions handed out by the teacher. Answering such questions is good because they directly relate to the concepts in the reading and require students to put their understanding into words.
After Reading
- the science of speech sounds including especially the history and theory of sound changes in a language or in two or more related languages
PHONOLOGY
- the system of contrastive relationships among the speech sounds that constitute the fundamental components of a language.
PHONOLOGY
the ability to be aware of, identify and manipulate phonological units (phonemes) in elements of spoken language such as syllables and words.
PHONOLOGICAL AWARENESS
- Phonological awareness comes from the analysis of the following language elements:
o Phonemes
o Dialects and Accents
o Phonotactics
the smallest unit of meaningful sound.
PHONEMES
- Phonemes are the ________ and form the building blocks of speech sounds.
basic phonological units
- Phonemes are _______ represented by a single written symbol.
single sounds
People can pronounce sounds in different ways. This can depend on multiple factors, for example:
o Social class
o Ethnic group
o Speech or voice disorders
o Education
o Geographical area
variations of the same language spoken by people in particular areas or social groups.
DIALECTS
Dialects differ in _______, _____, and _____. It is important to remember that whilst these factors impact speech, people can have different dialects and speak the same language.
pronunciation, grammatical patterns, and vocabulary.
have developed because of regional phonological differences. Sometimes these are based on the pronunciation of words by non-native speakers.
ACCENTS
- Within phonotactics, we can look at _____
syllables.
a phonological unit that involves one or more phonemes.
_____can show us how phonemes appear in particular sequences.
Syllables
