⩥ Phonemic Awareness. Answer: An exclusively oral language activity;
refers to the understanding that spoken words are made up of individual
sounds called phonemes. Instruction in phonemic awareness should be
viewed as an important element of a balanced reading program in the
early elementary grades.
⩥ Learning Approach. Answer: the theory that language acquisition
follows the basic laws of reinforcement and conditioning i.e. memorize
the rules
⩥ Linguistic Approach. Answer: based on letter-sound correspondence
⩥ Socio-cognitive Approach. Answer: A language acquisition theory that
states that the different aspects of linguistic, cognitive, and social
knowledge are interactive elements of total human development.
,⩥ 5 Basic Types of Phonemic Awareness. Answer: 1. Ability to hear
rhymes and alliteration. (ex: kids listens to poem, identifies rhyme
words, teacher records words on chart.)
2. Ability to do oddity tasks (ex: recognize number of a set that is
different.)
3. Ability to orally blend words and split syllables.
4. Ability to orally segment words (ex: ability to count sounds in a word
- "hamburger = ham-bur-ger = 3 sounds)
5. Ability to do phonics manipulation tasks (ex: replace the "r" sound in
rose with a "p" sound = pose.)
⩥ Morphology. Answer: Refers to its rules for word formation. Are the
smallest combination of sounds that have a meaning. Prepositions,
prefixes, suffixes, and whole words.
⩥ Semantics. Answer: Meaning of words and sentences
⩥ Syntax. Answer: Language rules that govern how words can be
combined to form meaningful phrases and sentences
⩥ Pragmatics. Answer: Describes how context can affect the
interpretation of communication. SOCIAL USE OF LANGUAGE ( EX:
SAYING WRONG THINGS AT THE WRONG TIME.)
,⩥ 5 Stages of Language Acquisition. Answer: 1. Acquisition learning
hypothesis- difference between learning and acquiring language
2. Monitor hypothesis - Learned language "monitors" acquired language
(ex: GRAMMAR CHECKIN)
3. Natural order hypothesis - Learning of grammar - normal "natural
order"
4. Input hypothesis - When conversation is on par with language ability.
Able to talk in convos and understand convos.
5. Affective filler hypothesis - be able to learn language if more relaxed
and not all like, "OMG."
⩥ Independent Reading. Answer: Reading level at which students can
accurately recognize and comprehend words well enough that no teacher
guidance is needed. (95-100% accuracy).
⩥ Guided Reading. Answer: A teacher provides support for small,
flexible groups of beginning readers. As students read a text or book that
is unfamiliar to them, the teacher works with them to teach them how to
use a variety of reading strategies. (92%-97% accuracy)
⩥ Whole Group Reading. Answer: Entire class will read the same text -
teacher incorporates activities for phonics, comprehension, fluency, and
vocabulary
, ⩥ 5 Critical Areas of Reading Instruction. Answer: 1. Phonemic
awareness : is commonly defined as the understanding that spoken
words are made up of separate units of sound that are blended together
when words are pronounced.
For example, hearing and saying that the word cat has three sounds, or
phonemes /k/ /a/ /t/ is an example of phonemic awareness skill.
2. Phonics : a set of rules that specify the relationship between letters in
the spelling of words and the sounds of spoken language.
3. Fluency : recognizing the words in a text rapidly and accurately and
using phrasing and emphasis in a way that makes what is read sound like
spoken language.
4. Vocabulary: words we need to know to communicate with others.
There are four types of vocabulary:
a.) listening: words we understand when others talk to us
b.) speaking: words we use when we talk to others
c.) reading: words we know when we see them in print (sight words and
words we can decode)
