Our Goals for Today Ø To understand the differences between phonological awareness, phonemic awareness

Our Goals for Today Ø To understand the differences between phonological awareness, phonemic awareness and phonics Ø To learn what research states about the dimensions of phonemic awareness Ø To learn best practices in the area of phonemic awareness instruction

Studies show that a reader’s ability to remember, imitate, recall, manipulate, and articulate sounds

Studies show that a reader’s ability to remember, imitate, recall, manipulate, and articulate sounds is essential to early reading. (NICHD, 2002)

Phonological Awareness The ability to attend to the sound structure of language Levels of phonological awareness • Word awareness • Syllable awareness • Sound awareness

Phonemic Awareness The awareness that spoken words or syllables can be thought of as

Phonemic Awareness The awareness that spoken words or syllables can be thought of as a sequence of phonemes /c-a-t/ /t-a-c/

Working with Words Ø Sentences are made up of meaningful words Ø The words

Working with Words Ø Sentences are made up of meaningful words Ø The words we pick and their order determine the meaning of a sentence. Ex. He is very neat. That is a neat headband.

Working with Syllables Ø Use known words Ø Say each syllable clearly and distinctly

Working with Syllables Ø Use known words Ø Say each syllable clearly and distinctly Ø Help students develop the ability to blend and segment syllables (Adams, Foorman, Lundberg, & Beeler, 1998)

Phonemic awareness is… Working with individual sounds in words, called phonemes Understanding sounds work

Phonemic awareness is… Working with individual sounds in words, called phonemes Understanding sounds work together to form words

Phonemic awareness: Ø can be taught and learned Ø helps children learn to read

Phonemic awareness: Ø can be taught and learned Ø helps children learn to read and to spell Ø is most effective when children are taught to manipulate phonemes by using letters of the alphabet

Without direct instructional support, phonemic awareness eludes roughly 25% of middle-class first grade students

Without direct instructional support, phonemic awareness eludes roughly 25% of middle-class first grade students and substantially more of those who come from less literacy-rich backgrounds. (Adams, Foorman, Lundberg, & Beeler, 1998 )

“Phonemic awareness and letter-sound knowledge account for more of the variation in early reading

“Phonemic awareness and letter-sound knowledge account for more of the variation in early reading and spelling success than general intelligence, overall maturity level, or listening comprehension. ” (National Reading Panel, 2000)
