Unit 2 Flashcards
allows learners to expand their horizons and provides them with opportunities
to communicate with others, allowing them to understand, interpret, and create meaning in their relationships
and cultural experiences.
Learning languages
For Indigenous peoples/communities, learning their own language grounds them in the context of their community life and enables them to develop deeper recognition and understanding of their
Indigenous knowledge systems and practices
(DO 32, s. 2015).
It also ensures full and effective participation and inclusion in society, as in the case of the Filipino Deaf community
(RA 11106)
encompasses both speaking and listening.
Oral language
skills include learning how
spoken words sound, what words and sentences mean, and how to communicate ideas.
Oral language
is often used in reference to vocabulary, but it actually encompasses five main areas: phonology, morphology, semantics, syntax, and pragmatics.
“Oral language”
the smallest units of meaning in language, and how they are combined to form words.
MORPHOLOGY
understanding of sounds in words
‘phonemes’
the ability to speak with accuracy
Fluency with oral language
is defined as one’s ability to comprehend spoken language1 at the discourse level – including conversations, stories, and informational oral texts – that involves the processes of extracting and constructing meaning.
Listening comprehension
– oral reading, theater, music
- Passive listening or appreciative listening
distinguishing sounds, phonemes, and non-verbal cues
- Discriminative listening –
finding details, retelling, sequencing
- Informational or precise listening
finding the main idea, summarizing, inferring
- Strategic listening
– analyzing, synthesizing, evaluating
- Critical listening
is generally motivated by the listener’s personal, informal interest. It’s important to
note that passive listening usually still results in some comprehension and learning.
Passive listening
is generally where most teachers focus their attention when working with students.
Active listening
is when the listener determines and defines both auditory and visual information.
Discriminative listening
When students are listening strategically, they actively look for connections to their own knowledge and try to make sense of the information.
- Strategic listening
is evaluative in nature. The listener is making judgments and measuring new information against current information to make decisions or ask the next question.
Critical listening
is being able to describe things and events and tell stories. Talking with children helps them develop comprehension skills.
Narrative skills
Print concepts are knowledge about the function and purpose of print.
Knowledge of Print
is the ability to hear, identify, and manipulate individual sounds – phonemes –in spoken words.
Phonemic awareness
is the ability to listen to a sequence of phonemes (sounds) and to be able to combine them to form a word. /c/ /a/ /t/ is cat.
Phoneme blending
