37
Q

The process of studying words. This is an instructional approach for teaching learners how to read
and spell. It is learner-centered and it is based on the learner’s developmental stage. The learner must
categorize and sort words by using what s/he knows about phonics, orthography, vocabulary, and word identification skills

A

word study

38
Q

An assessment which asks the student to spell a carefully-selected set of words that grow
increasingly difficult. The set of words contains a range of orthographic features, and the student is being
tested on his/her knowledge of those features. It is used to determine a student’s developmental
stage in orthographic (and reading) skills, based on what the student uses and confuses. Students are placed
into instructional groups, based on this.

A

39
Q

A representation of literacy as a woven set of skills, including reading, writing, orthography,
vocabulary, oral literacy, and familiarity with authentic stories and informational texts

A

Q

A

Q

A

42
Q

A

43
Q

change the tense or number of a word

A

inflectional ending

44
Q

This is where you read aloud, using authentic, meaningful stories and informational texts.
You expose children to the joy of reading, and you provide them with lots of good introduction of
vocabulary and modeling of strategies

A

Read to

45
Q

This can occur in a number of ways. Students can read familiar texts in reading buddy
pairs, or work together in small groups with decodable texts, or leveled texts. Or it can be the teacher
conducting a shared reading minilesson with a small group, or with the whole class. It can also be a
literature circle.

A

Read with

46
Q

This can take many forms. You might model how to write the letter “B” while children
write on their own papers. You could model how to encode a set of phonograms (e.g., bit, fit, sit, hit,
and mitt—an “oddball”). You could provide a minilesson on how to write a “hook” in a five-paragraph
essay.

A

Write with

47
Q

Rich, purposeful discussions are essential. Children should talk with each other about their
reading and their writing. they should do this in pairs, in small groups, and in presentations to the
whole class. Teachers should have individual conferences with students, should talk with small groups
about a reading/writing topic, and should conduct grand conversations with the class, to help them
process a concept, or a text

49
Q

Learners experiment and imitate in this stage. They are exploring concepts of print, including
directionality, features of print, word boundaries, and predictability of text. They are learning letter names. They are
curious about written language. They have phonemic awareness, and they are refining this awareness. They engage in
pretend reading and pretend writing, and also exhibit memory reading. At the end of this stage, they begin to match
phonemes (sounds) to letters.

A

emergent

50
Q

Learners are beginning to read and write in a conventional way. Their knowledge of letter
names is solidified, and they often invent spellings based on the letter name. (Ex: The word “why” might be spelled “y.”)
They understand the concept of a word in a text, and can finger point and read simple words with some fluency. Their
consonant knowledge gets stronger and stronger, while vowels are still tricky for them, due to their ambiguity. They gain
command over a “beginner’s set” of high-frequency words, and also over a good number of sight words. At the end of this
stage, these learners have a stronger grasp of vowel sounds, and are comfortable with many CVC words, some CVCe
words, as well as other patterns.

A

letter name alphabetic stage

51
Q

Learners in this stage have a much firmer grasp of the phonemes they hear in words, and can
encode many of them into familiar orthographic patterns. They are transitioning into a more fluent stage of oral reading.
They read most single-syllable words correctly, and can spell many of them correctly, too. To read multi-syllable words,
they need contextual support, and their spellings will be less accurate. Their grasp of patterns in words is getting very
strong at this stage, and they are able to cope with complex patterns such as r-controlled vowels, vowel ambiguities, and
complex consonant patterns (e.g. fetch, ledge, stretch).

A

within word pattern

52
Q

For some children this can start as early as end-of-first or second grade. For many, though, it
solidifies in end-of-second or third grade. Learners in this stage have been reading and spelling mult-syllable words
already, but now they are solidly grasping the generalizations/rules for how syllables are added on to a root, how the
spellings change (e.g., “double the consonant before adding –ing for some words”), and how prefixes, suffixes, and
inflectional endings are used. Students need to have very strong word consciousness in this stage, and so do their
teachers! Learners begin using morphemic analysis in this stage, and this skill is strengthened in the next stage

A

syllables and affixes

53
Q

The knowledge that learners have about spelling and vocabulary is now growing through the
process of derivation. Learners ask themselves, “What is the derivation of this word?” as they approach a new work that
they must read and/or spell. They think about the root and its meaning, and they even think about what language the
root came from. This is the etymology of the word—its history of language origins. Learners also have a firm grasp of the
meanings of many prefixes and suffixes, and how those affixes affect the root. We remain in this stage through adulthood,
and we must have a robust word consciousness to keep on acquiring new vocabulary and new learning.

A
