Step Practice Questions
Phonemic blending practice - answerProviding explicit phonemic blending practice with
visual and auditory support.
Fluency weakness - answerA student consistently reads aloud in a monotone voice with
little expression, indicating a weakness in prosody.
Comprehension strategies - answerImplementing explicit comprehension strategies
such as summarization and questioning for students who read fluently but struggle to
recall key details.
Phonemic awareness assessment - answerAn assessment that best identifies the
specific nature of difficulty distinguishing between similar-sounding phonemes such
as /b/ and /d/.

morphological analysis to help students decode multisyllabic words.
Repeated readings - answerIntroducing repeated readings and partner reading to
improve fluency for a student struggling with both decoding and reading fluency.
Phonological awareness intervention steps - answerTeach letter-sound relationships,
introduce phonemic manipulation, and reinforce through word reading.
Rhyming exposure - answerProviding additional exposure to rhyming through songs,
poetry, and hands-on activities for students struggling with identifying rhyming words.
Phonemic awareness vs phonics - answerThe primary difference between phonemic
awareness and phonics.
Phonemic awareness - answerRecognizing and manipulating sounds in spoken
language.
Phonics - answerInvolves letter-sound relationships in written text.
