Q

In terms of successful reading fluency and text comprehension, describe the memory piece a little bit

(not sure if we need to memorize this one… just read it)

A

−Working memory is a workspace where information is juggled

−Working memory: interconnected systems in different parts of the brain
−Systems of working memory:
•Short term memory involves different parts of the brain
•Verbal stimulation in the left hemisphere
•Visual-spatial stimulation in the right hemisphere
•Central executive function
oVisuospatial sketchpad – Verbal phonological loop
*Paths exist between visuospatial sketchpad to central executive function and between verbal phonological loop to central executive function
•Working memory is like a computers RAM—it disappears
•Our job…
oPinpoint how to increase phonological storage
oStimulate visual sketchpad
oIncrease efficiency of central executive functioning

Q

What is the new view of dyslexia?

A
  • most often has a language base, specifically in one system of language: phonology
  • phonological core deficits
  • reading problems may stem from underlying difficulties with phonological awareness and/or rapid serial naming abilities

33
Describe the dyslexia profile (2 profiles)
Decoding and its effect on comprehension phonological core deficits
34
Describe the generalized reading problem profile
Comprehension and (often) decoding problems SECONDARY to multiple systems of language in deficit also called mixed decoding/comprehension deficit or specific comprehension deficit depending on the areas of deficit
35
What must we do/determine when assessing for a disorder vs. a difference?
- we have to be detectives - grounded in what phonological system - language development? when? how long? at home? at school? - hybridity of cultural-linguistic experiences - background and experiences
36
What's the "big takeaway" when assessing for a difference vs. disorder
background/history makes a difference must not diagnosis a difference as a disorder but.. must also not just attribute the problem to other language background language development takes longer for students whose first language isn't english... reading and writing in English will also take longer.. Cannot compare to English norms
37
One world literacy... "to participate fully in society and the workplace in 2020, citizens will need powerful literacy abilities that until now have been achieved by only a small percentage of the population.” −Be able to think critically about quote—do I think that’s true, and why?
...
38
• “I Choose C” video –animated video—watch and think about it https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dY2mRM4i6tY
Children aren’t taught how to think critically to answer questions and problem solve −Accustomed to multiple choice, and if you don’t know, “choose C” Don’t know how to integrate what they’ve learned in school to real world life situations and environments
39
Draw the phonological processing umbrella
...
40
In the phonological umbrella, what are the four parts?
phonological awareness word retrieval phonological coding in memory Verbal Output
41
If a child has early language problems, what does this look like at age 2 1/2?
produce shorter, simpler sentences less accurate word pronunciations
42
If a child has early language problems, what does this look like at age 3?
- receptive vocabulary problems - naming problems - may have phonological processing problems
43
If a child has early language problems, what does this look like at age 4?
- word junction problems - problems differentiating similar sounding words - problems distinguishing/producing words with complex sound clusters and more complex words
44
If a child has early language problems, what does this look like at age 5?
- poor naming - poor rhyming - poor phonemic awareness - poor letter-sound knowledge
45
What are the 3 stages in the literacy acquisition stage model?
logographic stage alphabetic stage Orthographic stage
46
Describe the logographic stage
child learns words as independent, visual forms (recognize "stop" by red hexagon background.. etc.) salient graphic features: length, 1st/last letters letter order irrelevant it's an important recognition stage because it's a simple association This stage will lead us to the ability to attach graphemes to phonemes builds sight vocabulary begins to use pencils/crayons to draw & scribble. They aren't focused on individual lines or the letters--it's the whole. As in speech development, child attends to whole (scribble design) vs. parts (lines/letters) "Make believe writing" happens
47
Describe the alphabetic stage
3.5--4 years (scribbling turns into lines, dots, loops=letter like) writing leads to alphabetic principle (sounds and certain symbols go together) oral language leads to reading language and reading language leads to writing emerging phonemic awareness skills. the 3 1/2 - 4 year mark hopefully phonemic awareness (strong sound system) skills are emerging. This is why it's important that ear infections get treated, babies in the NICU get simulation - new reader must decode printed grapheme to sound & match with stored word in lexicon - increased proficiency accessing stored phonological word representations increases individual phonemes that are isolated basically this says the more practice we have with this, the better the phonological system will be
48
Describe the orthographic stage
- instant recognition (logographic) & analytic sequential (alphabetic) skills merge - allows for instant recognition of morphemes (word parts) e.g., suffixes, prefixes, and common syllables
49
What are Chall's Stages of reading and writing?
0-3.5 years old Chall's stage 1: initial reading/decoding (grades 1-2; 6-7 years) Chall's Stage 2: confirmation, fluency, ungluing from print (grades 2-3; 7-8 years) Chall's Stage 3: Reading to learn (grades 4-5; 9-13 years) Chall's Stage 4: Multiple Viewpoints (high school; 14-18 years) Hall's Stage 5: Construction and Reconstruction-A world view (college; 18+ years)
50
Describe Chall's stage from 0-3.5 years
- pretends to read - retells a story - names letters of alphabet - recognizes some signs - prints own name - plays with books, pencils, and paper
51
Describe Chall's Stage 1: Initial Reading/Decoding
Grades 1-2 Ages 6-7 Knows sound/symbol association (phonics needs to develop) reads simple text sounds out one-syllable words recognizes high-frequency words Does simple reading learning to read Stage 0 of Chall's as well as the literacy acquisition stages set kids up to learn to read
52
Describe Chall's Stage 2: Confirmation, fluency, ungluing from print
- grades 2-3 - Ages 7-8 - reads simple, familiar stories and selections - fluency increasing (timed in the classroom) - basic decoding, sight vocabulary, meaning context coming together - basic decoding, sight vocabulary, meaning context coming together - more intelligent guessing to figure out words - more attention to meaning - writes more reading to learn??
53
Describe Chall's Stage 3: Reading to learn
grades 4-5 ages 9-13 Reads to learn (begins in grade 3), new ideas, gain knowledge, new feelings, attitudes, (social studies, science, etc) readers, textbooks, reference works, trade books comprehends increasingly complex printed materials reflects recognizes what they don't know MEGA reader Top down reader
54
Describe Chall's stage 4: Multiple viewpoints
high school 14-18 years reads from broad range of complex expository and narrative materials reads greater quantities over-applying strategy (slow, careful) goes back if need be if comprehension isn't solid
55
Describe Chall's stage 5: construction and reconstruction--a world view
college 18+ years reads for professional and personal purposes reads to integrate his knowledge with others creates new knowledge rapid, efficient rate great variety of difficult materials **transition from "bottom up" to "top down reader" has progressed to this point
56
What are Bear's Writing stages?
- emergent writing - beginning writing #1 (around 5 years) - beginning writing #2 - Beginning Writing #3 - middle stage writers - transitional stage writers (6-12 years)--1st grade - intermediate & specialized writing (begins around 10 years)
57
Describe Bear's emergent writing stage
- large scribbles/drawings - tells a story as he draws - little order to direction of print, circles, up/down lines - observe others; print begins to take form - sound-symbol correspondence emerges - look alike letters confused (b/c, l/i)
58
Describe Bear's beginning writing stage #1
(around 5 years) - relay messages "yuts a lade yet geheg ad he lot flipper" (they actually use letters and in chunks.. kid is trying) - spell most salient features of syllables - substitute letters based on articulation (y/w; j/dr) - use vowels - add spacing
59
Describe Bear's beginning writing stage #2
- directionality (left to right) - uses most letters (not scribbles) - good sound-letter correspondence - try to be spellers - substitutes letters: point of articulation - omits vowels - some absence of spacing but it's getting better
60
Describe Bear's beginning writing stage #3
use most beginning/ending consonants clear sound-symbols correspondences (phonics is getting better) continue substitutions: point of articulation uses some vowels, but not all: BD=bed, WN=when, etc..
61
Describe Bear's middle stage writers stage
- differentiates vowels/consonants - each syllable needs at least one vowel - uses short vowels more - more phonetic spelling (whatever they hear they put down) begins to understand closed syllable: CVC Correctly spells plreconsonantal nasal sounds /m,n/
62
Describe Bear's transitional stage writers stage
6-12 years---1st grade examines vowels within syllables and word patterns correctly spell most single-syllable short vowel words spell consonant blends (pl) & digraphs (sh) experiments with long vowels e.g., silent e learns spelling patterns don't always sound same like daughter/laughter
63
Describe Bear's intermediate and specialized writing stage
begins around 10 years writing reflects personal problem solving and personal reflection learns how syllables fit together studies inflectional junctures, prefixes, suffixes studies bases, roots
