Sheet # 1 Flashcards
Foundations of Reading Development: Phonological Awareness, Phonemic Awareness, & Phonics
Word Recognition
the ability to see a word and know how to pronounce it without consciously thinking about it
Phonics
letter sound relationships
-involves print
- requires looking at print
- focuses on the representation of spoken language
- helps students identify words in print by “sounding out” the phonemes, blending them together, and saying the word.
Oral Vocabulary/Language
all comes from the mouth
- have to say it before reading and writing it.
Concepts of Print/Print Awareness
Basic understanding of the way print works including the direction of print, spacing, punctuation, letters, and words.
- taking all of the oral language a child has learned and now are able to apply it through Book-handling skills.
Book Handling Skills
print awareness/concepts of print stage
ex. pointing out the title, beginning, middle, and end of a book. Also, students become aware of punctuation marks (e.g., question marks, periods, etc.)
Text Directionality
line of print - left to right (finger following)
Return Sweep
get to the end of a line you need to sweep back to the left again.
- how you go to the next line!
Shared Reading
is the use of big books where kids can join in the reading. Students can see the text because the text is purposely big enough for them to chime in, follow along, and watch as the teacher is pointing and tracking the text.
- can also be used in word study
* different from read alouds
Read Alouds
only the teacher has access to the print; books are not big enough to see the print.
Role of Environmental Print
classroom labels (e.g., desk, chair, floor, board, sink, etc.)
Signs in the environment (e.g., stop signs, exits, “on”, “off”, grocery stores, & manufactures) & logos such as “Kentucky Fried Chicken, Stop & Shop, Target, etc.)
Connected Text
is text that is connected for meaning. It is not isolated lists of words, it is connected in paragraphs and stories/ text to give meaning.
Phonological Awareness
chunks of oral language; oral language is composed of smaller units, such as spoken words and syllables.
not reading itself
The stream of speech: just us talking
***lights could be off - there is nothing to see, read, no letter name - ORAL ONLY
Order of Phonological Awareness Skills
- Words in a sentence (based on #’s)
- Rhymes (recognize, complete, & produce a rhyme).
- Blend Syllables, Segment Syllables, Count Syllables
phonological awareness skill #1
Distinguish the # of words in a sentence.
ex. He ran to his house
1. 2. 3. 4. 5
(There are 5 words)
kids need to have manipulatives b/c they can’t hold counting in their head ( pre k, k level)
Phonological Awareness Skill #2 - Rhyme
a. recognize a rhyme - easy
ex. Does “pin” rhyme with “sick”
b. Complete a rhyme - mid
ex. The “cat” sat on the ____.
(mat) (rate) (pug)
c. Produce a rhyme - hard
ex. What word or make-believe word rhymes with dog?
(Log, hog, slog, mog, etc.)
Phonological Awareness Skill #3 - Syllables
a. Blend syllables - easy
ex. What words is made when we put “rain” and “coat” together - “raincoat””
or /b/ /u/ /m/ /p/ - /bump/
b. segment syllables - more difficult than blending
*breaking words apart
ex. “what word is made in “window”
/win/ & /dow/
c. Count Syllables:
ex. how many syllables or parts are in the word, pencil (2), go (1), apple (2) ***think jawdrop
Jaw Drop
jaw drop works for syllables in phonological awareness skill counting syllables.
In order to have a syllables you must have on vowel sound!
What must a syllable contain?
1 vowel sound - you have to be able to hear it.
Syllables
a syllable must contain a vowel.
clap magazine ( /mag/ /a/ /zine/ - 3 claps; 3 vowels).
Monosyllabic
mono means one; has only one vowel!
ex. hat, cat, sat, cap
Multisyllabic
more than one syllable * magazine *
common missed question - there are three monosyllabic words in
/mag/ /a/ /zine/
1 2 3
closed syllables
closed = think consonant
words at the end in a consonant letter ( says the letter’s sound)
*tends to have short vowel sounds
ex. mag or bag, carpet, sandwich, etc.
open syllable
word ends in a vowel
*tends to have long vowel sounds (says letter name)
ex. tiger, pilot, banana
Rhyming
all oral and under phonological awareness.
Rhyming words:
ex. cat, run, and mat - cat and mat rhyme
phonological processing
is the process of sounds
*** a child must recognize these sounds in order to later form a sound/print match.
Phoneme
smallest unit of sound.
ex. /f/ /g/ /t/ /l/ /oi/ /eigh/
/d/ - slash marks mean they are representative of the sound
Onset
all the letters/sounds before a vowel
ex. b/ ack. (b is the onset)
Rime
the vowel to the end of the word
ex. st/ op (op is the rime)
Why do we teach onset and rime?
we teach onset and rime to help themselves read words and expand their reading vocabularies.
Which of the following words is the best one to use to teach rime? (while, rat, or toy)
the one you chose to onset and rime is the one you can make the most words from (there one that is the most useful to teach)
answer: rat
Elkonin boxes
are just graphic organizers for kids. Helps kids organize their thinking.
* can be used w/ phonemes or oral complete sentences.
long vowel sound
tāble (You can hear the letter name —– a -> /ā/
short vowel sound
bǔb-ble (you hear the sound of the letter)
How do we teach students phonemes?
We teach through taping b/c taping sends a message to our brain that your teeth and tongue connect to your fingers moving
ex. /m/ /a/ /sh/
Word families & phonograms
Rime is a synonym for word families which is a synonym for phonograms.
/w/ /in/
What is the phonogram in win?
in
consonant diagraph
is a combination of 2 consonants that work together to represent one single sound in a word.
ex. ch, sh, the, ph, ck,wh
