Q

Components of Phonological Awareness

A

Recognize individual phonemes but ALSO syllables and words
*Rhyme awareness/alliteration
*Word awareness
*syllables
*onsets & rime
*phonemic awareness (isolating, blending, segmenting, manipulating)

Q

Onset & Rime

A

Onset- sounds before the vowel in a syllable (consonants, consonant digraphs, consonant blends)
Rime- vowel sound and everything after

Ex. Fish /f/ = onset
/ish/= rime

Grape /gr/= onset
/ape/= rime

Q

Alphabetic Principle

A

The understanding that speech sounds (phonemes) are represented by graphemes (written representations made of phonemes)

21
Q

Assessing (informal) Alphabetic Knowledge and Alphabetic Principle

A

When assessing alphabetic KNOWLEDGE provide the letter.

When assessing alphabetic PRINCIPLE, provide the sound

22
Q

Intervention strategies for print concepts and letter recognition are generally the same as best-practice teaching strategies for all students, but they meet individual student needs through reteaching, slower pacing, and additional practice for missing skills.

A

Something to remember

23
Q

Phonics

A

Method of teaching the reading and writing of an alphabet and the ability to understand the relationship between letters and sounds.

Instruction connects the sounds (phonemes) to their written symbols (graphemes).

24
Q

Phonics knowledge helps students improve their reading and spelling skills.

A

Something to remember

25
Q

Consonant blend

A

Two or more consonants that blend together but retain their own sound
Ex: bl, cl, dr

26
Q

Consonant digraph

A

Two consonants that make a single consonant sounds
Ex: sh, ch, th

27
Q

Vowel digraph (vowel teams)

A

Two vowels that make a single sound
Ex: ai, ay , oy

28
Q

Diphthongs

A

One vowel sound made by a combo of two vowel sounds
Ex: au, aw, oo

29
Q

Inflectional endings

A

Suffix added to a word that’s changes function, but not meaning
Ex: -ed, -er, -est

30
Q

Digraphs are two letters that make one sound. Diphthongs are unique vowel sounds. For example, in coin the o and i come together to make a sound unlike short or long o or i. The sound is a diphthong; the letters are a digraph. The same vowel combination can be considered both a vowel digraph and a vowel diphthong. Pay close attention to how your questions about them are phrased.

A

Something to remember

31
Q

Morpheme

A

Meaningful word parts

Smallest unit of language that contains meaning

Morphemes are a combination of sounds that have meaning in speech or writing and cannot be divided into smaller grammatical parts.

32
Q

Embedded Phonics

A

Embedded phonics focuses on using the initial letter sound in combination with the context of the sentence to make an educated guess.

33
Q

Grapheme

A

the letters and spellings that represent those sounds in written language

34
Q

Decoding Skills Progression

A

CVC
CCVC
CVCC
CVCe
CVVC/vowel digraphs (teams)/vowel diphthongs
Multisyllabic words

35
Q

Open vs Closed Syllables

A

Ex: robot
Ro- open bot- closed

Open- ends with a vowel sound that is spelled with a single vowel letter
Closed- has a short vowel ending in a consonant

36
Q

6 syllable types

A

open– syllable spelled with a single vowel letter that ends with its long vowel sound

Ex. me, a-gent, ro-bot, re-act

closed-syllable that has a short vowel sound spelled with one vowel letter and ends in one or more consonants; this is the most common spelling unit in English and accounts for almost 50% out of all the total syllables found in text

Ex. hot, help, ad-mit, bas-ket

vowel team ( digraph/diphthong)- syllable with a long, short, or unique vowel sound that uses 2-4 letters to spell the vowel sound

Ex. south, taught, aw-ful, team-mate

r-controlled-syllable with a vowel followed by the letter r; the r changes the way the vowel is pronounced

Ex. stir, gui-tar, mo-ther, or-ange

VCe- syllable with a long vowel sound made from one vowel + one consonant + silent e

Ex. name, mice, com-plete, trom-bone

final -le (final stable)- - syllable made with a consonant + l + silent e

Ex. bu-gle, can-dle, cir-cle, tram-ple

37
Q

Sight word - cannot be decoded, must be memorized

High-frequency word - appears often in grade-level text, may or may not be decodable

Decodable word - student can read using learned phonics skills

A

Just remember

38
Q

Synthetic Phonics Approach

A

*Systematic and explicit
* Students learn to make letters and combinations
into sounds and blend together to form words
* Practice materials, such as decodable text, are provided

39
Q

Analogy-Based Phonics Approach

A
  • Students learn to use a rime (phonogram) in a familiar
    word to read an unfamiliar word with the same rime
  • Unfamiliar word is decoded by blending the shared
    rime with the new onset
    Back Track
    Both words contain ‘ack’
40
Q

Analytic Phonics

A
  • Instruction begins by identifying a familiar word
  • Teacher introduces a sound/spelling relationship
    within word
    Sit ———lip, bib, fin
41
Q

Embedded Phonics

A
  • Instruction is embedded within authentic literacy experiences
  • Rules of phonics are introduced informally as students
    come across them
  • Instruction is focused on word-solving skills o context
    o illustrations
    o familiar word parts
    o first and last letters of words
42
Q

Morphemic Analysis

A

inferring word meanings by examining their parts (i.e., prefixes, suffixes, roots, etc.).

43
Q

Morphology

A

Study of word form
in a language

44
Q

Roots

A

Roots are the bases to which affixes may be attached. They provide the core meaning of a word.

Stand alone: help love friend
Cannot stand alone:
geo (earth)
omni (all)

45
Q

Affixes

A

Affixes are morphemes that can be attached to roots to modify them in some way. An affix cannot stand alone as its own word.

Prefix-
un-
re-
dis-

Suffix-
-ed
-ful
-ing

46
Q

Derivational Affix

A

alters the meaning or part of speech of a word

Ex. Re- added to ‘do’ changes the meaning

Can be prefixes AND suffixes

47
Q

Inflectional Affix

A

alters the form of the word; typically does not change the part of speech

Ex. Loud, louder, loudest
Jump, jumps, jumped

Usually only suffixes

48
Q

If you are assessing alphabetic knowledge, provide the letter.

If you are assessing the alphabetic principle, provide the sound.

A

Just remember it
