Word Recognition Flashcards
the understanding of how written text is organized and used (recognizing letters and their names)
print awareness/concepts of print
the ability to recognize and manipulate the sounds in spoken language
phonological awareness
the process of combining sounds to form words
Blending
the understanding that letters in written language corresponds to specific sounds
alphabetic principle
the process of using knowledge of letter-sound relationships to sound out and read a written word
decoding
the process of turning spoken sounds into written symbols, or graphemes. (spelling)
writing-encoding
the system of writing a language, specifically the rules and conventions governing how letters are combined to represent sounds and form words
orthography
the mental process where a reader connects the sounds of a word (phonemes) to the letters that represent those sounds (graphemes)
orthographic mapping
teaching letter-sound relationships in a planned, logical sequence, where each sound and corresponding letter introduced in a specific order
systematic
the ability to quickly and accurately identify letters, letter patterns, and words without conscious effort
automaticity
use pictures in books too learn about letters and words, and to develop an interest in reading
pre-emergent readers-pictures
The ability to identify and understand words that are written or spoken
word recognition
a method of teaching people to read by correlating sounds with letters
phonics
the ability to identify and manipulate and individual sounds in spoken words (Cat- /c/,/A/,/T/)
phonemic awareness
the process of turning sounds into letters to form words
spelling
starting to understand the basic relationship between letters and their corresponding sounds, allowing them to decode simple words by identifying individual letter sounds and blending them together
emergent readers-letter/sound relationship
two letters that combine to create one sound in phonics
digraphs
a sound formed by the combination of two vowels in a single syllable, in which the sound begins as one vowel and moves toward another (ex: coin, loud)
diphthongs
a learners understanding of the names, shapes, and sounds of individual letters in the alphabet
alphabetic knowledge
the relationship between letters (graphemes) and their corresponding sounds (phonemes)
graphophonic
the process of combining sounds to read a word (/j/, /a/, /m/- jam
