Q

what is the relationship between phonological awareness and phonemic awareness?

A

phonological: the broad topic-deals with language as a whole; deals with syllables, and rhyme/alliteration

phonemic: “under phonological’s umbrella”; deals with SOUNDS in words specifically
(ex. addition, deletion, substitution, isolation, blending, and segmenting)

23

24
Q

add a t sound to the end of pan

25

/m/an
26
what onset do you hear in pan?
p-
27
what rime do you hear in pan?
-an
28
how is phonics different from phonological and phonemic awareness?
phonics is written the rest is orally, and you can have your eyes closed
29
what is the difference between voiced vs. voiceless consonants?
voiced: when you say the phoneme, your throat vibrates - ex. /b/ voiceless: saying the phoneme does NOT make your throat vibrate. - ex. /f/
30
what are the three separate but related types of alphabetic code knowledge?
1. spelling 2. phonics 3. phonemic awareness
31
alphabetic code knowledge: what is the top part of the pyramid for?
spelling
32
alphabetic code knowledge: what is the bottom part of the pyramid for?
phonemic awareness
33
alphabetic code knowledge: what is the middle part of the pyramid for?
phonics
34
why is it important to teach onset and rime?
it is not necessarily about rhyming (phonological), instead, more about reading ex. if i can read "cake", then I can read bake, sake, take, rake, etc.
35
complete the rhyme to remember the C and G rule...
e, i, and y make G and C soft all day, BUT they become hard consonants before o, u, and a
36
what letters are always vowels?
A, E, I, O, U
37
what letters are sometimes vowels?
Y, W
38
list the 5 r-controlled vowels
ar, or, ir, er, ur
39
which 3 of the 5 r-controlled vowels sound the same?
ur, ir, er
40

consonants
41
______ have more consistent phoneme-grapheme relationships. vowels or consonants?
consonants
42
for almost every vowel or consonant generalization, there is always ______.
expectations
43
traditional advice is to sound out words, but better advice is to ______.
think it out
44
long vowels
vowel sounds pronounced the same as the name of the letter ex. a, e, i, o, u "u" is pronounced like "you"
45
short vowels
any word that does not allow the vowel within it to generate that vowel's long vowel sound (or schwa sound) ex. a, e, i, o, u "u" in bug does not sound like "you"
46
schwa
the /uh/ sound made by some vowels; often eliminated in words ex. again (pronounced /uh/, camera (not pronounced)
47
word families
a more common name for onset and rime ex. The bat, cat, and mat are all in the -at family.
48
blending sounds
the ability to identify a word when hearing parts (phonemes or syllables) in isolation ex. /m/ + /a/ + /n/ = man
49
segmenting sounds
the ability to break a word down into individual parts (sounds or phonemes) ex. man = /m/ /a/ /n/
50
deleting sounds
the ability to take away a sound (phoneme) from a word ex. man - /m/ = an
51
substituting sounds
the ability to change a sound (phoneme) in a word ex. man, change /n/ to /t/ = mat
