cur within each component of reading where a logical progression of skills would be evident:
easier skills are introduced before more difficult skills, so that skills build progressively. - AN-
SWER Coordinated Instructional Sequences
The skills, knowledge, and attitudes that are developmental precursors to conventional
forms of reading and writing. - ANSWER Emergent Literacy
Language that is spoken. - ANSWER Expressive Language
What are the 5 components of Reading? - ANSWER Phonemic awareness, phonics, flu-
ency, vocabulary, and comprehension.
Vocabulary common to written texts but not commonly a part of speech; in the Standards,
these words and phrases are analogous to Tier Two words and phrases are typically this... -
ANSWER General academic words and phrases
(Remember, Tier 2 isn't necessarily common in every day language Ex. analyze, restrict, for-
mulate.)
The relationship between letters and phonemes. - ANSWER Graphophonemic
(Examples would include Recognizing alphabetic sequence while singing the alphabet song,
naming letters as well as matching upper and lowercase letters).

,Words that are spelled the same but have different origins and meanings. They may or may
not be pronounced the same (e.g., can as in a metal container/can as in able to). - AN-
SWER Homograph
-same spelling, different meaning and may have a different pronunciation
(Remember- Homographs are always spelled the same, so remember the ending "-graph,"
which is a Greek root meaning "writing.")
"When the teacher WRITES with a pencil, she needs LEAD to LEAD instruction"
Lead= graphite
Lead=guide
Words that sound the same but are spelled differently (e.g., cents/sense, knight/night). - AN-
SWER Homonym
-Multiple Meaning Words-
"nym" means name
Remember the sentence "Hello, my name is Amber, I came to buy Amber.
Amber= name Amber=fossilized resin
Words that may or may not be spelled alike but are pronounced the same. These words are
of different origins and have different meanings (e.g., ate and eight; scale as in the covering
of a fish; and scale as in a device used to weigh things) - ANSWER Homophone
(Homophones always sound alike, so remember the ending "-phone," which is a Greek root
meaning "sound.")

,Remember the sentence "I am on the PHONE, can you HEAR me in HERE?"
Hear- listen
Here- location
These routines include the following sequence of steps:
Explicit instruction
Modeling
Guided practice
Student practice, application, and feedback
Generalization - ANSWER Instructional Routines
The matching of an oral sound to its corresponding letter or group of letters. - ANSWER
Letter-sound correspondence
This concept includes reading, writing, and the creative and analytical acts involved in pro-
ducing and comprehending texts. - ANSWER Literacy
This is the smallest meaningful unit of language. This can be one syllable (book) or more
than one syllable (seventeen). It can be a whole word or a part of a word such as a prefix or
suffix. For example, the word ungrateful contains three of these: un, grate, and ful. - AN-
SWER Morpheme
An analysis of words formed by adding prefixes, suffixes or other meaningful word units to a
base word. - ANSWER Morphemic Analysis
(meanings of words can be determined or inferred by examining their meaningful parts.)

, Ex. biology= bio+logy
bio=life logy=the study of
Units of meaning within words. The study of how words are formed from prefixes, roots, and
suffixes (e.g., mis-spell-ing), and how words are related to each other. - ANSWER Mor-
phology
Remember: Morphology (Greek Origin)
morph+o+loge+y
morph=form, structure
loge= speech, word, account, reason
This is using a word's letter patterns to help determine, in part, the meaning and pronuncia-
tion of a word.
For example, the morpheme vis in words such as vision and visible is from the Latin root
word that means to see; and the ay in stay is pronounced the same in the words gray and
play. - ANSWER Morphophonology
morpho=shape/structure
phono=sound
logy=study of
______________ is the rate at which a child can recite "overlearned" stimuli such as letters
and single-digit numbers. (May be connected to executive functioning or processing speed) -
ANSWER Naming Speed
Vowels that are pronounced differently from the expected pronunciation (e.g., the "o" in old
is pronounced /ō/ instead of the expected /o/. - ANSWER oddities
(odd, think different)
