A method of teaching students to read by correlating
sounds with letters or groups of letters in an
alphabetic writing system. Children are taught, for
Phonics
example, that the letter n represents the sound /n/,
and that it is the first letter in words such as nose, nice
and new.
The use of phonemes to process spoken and written
language. The broad category of phonological
Phonological Processing processing includes phonological awareness,
phonological working memory, and phonological
retrieval.
Awareness of the sound structure of a language and
the ability to consciously analyze and manipulate this
Phonological Awareness structure via a range of tasks, such as speech sound
segmentation and blending at the word, onset-rime,
syllable, and phonemic levels.

1. Word awareness
2. Responsiveness to rhyme and alliteration during
Development of word play
Phonological Awareness 3. Syllable awareness
4. Onset and rime manipulation
5. Phoneme awareness
Tracking the words in sentences. Knowledge that
words have meaning. (less important to teach directly)
1. Word awareness
Strategy: read-aloud, alphabet chants, high-frequency
word books
Enjoying and reciting learned rhyming words or
alliterative phrases in familiar storybooks or nursery
rhymes.
2. Responsiveness to
rhyme and alliteration Strategy: poetry books, alphabet chants, picture
during word play flashcards w/ objects whose names rhyme.
(Flashcards can be used in sorting and classifying
activities.)
Counting, tapping, blending, or segmenting a word
into syllables.
Syllable awareness Strategy: Flashcards w/ objects whose names contain
different numbers of syllables.
(Flashcards can be used in sorting activity.)
Onset is the initial consonant in a one-syllable word.
Rime includes the remaining sounds, including the
vowel and any sounds that follow. The ability to
Onset and rime produce a rhyming word depends on understanding
manipulation that rhyming words have the same rime. Recognizing
a rhyme is much easier than producing a rhyme.
Strategy: Blending and substitution activities.

This is the student's awareness of the smallest units of
sound in a word. It also refers to a student's ability to
segment, blend, and manipulate these units.
- Identify and match the initial sounds in words, then
the final and middle sounds (e.g., "Which picture
begins with /m/?"; "Find another picture that ends in
/r/").
- Segment and produce the initial sound, then the final
and middle sounds (e.g., "What sound does zoo start
with?"; "Say the last sound in milk"; "Say the vowel
sound in rope").
- Blend sounds into words (e.g., "Listen: /f/ /ē/ /t/. Say
Phonemic awareness
it fast").
- Segment the phonemes in two- or three-sound
words, moving to four- and five- sound words as the
student becomes proficient (e.g., "The word is eyes.
Stretch and say the sounds: /ī/ /z/").
- Manipulate phonemes by removing, adding, or
substituting sounds (e.g., "Say smoke without the /m/").
Strategy: listening to alliterative passages, blending
and segmenting words, and manipulating sounds in
words through substitution, deletion, and addition of
phonemics. Elkonin boxes are provided for tactile
blending and segmenting activities.
Involves storing phoneme information in a temporary,
Phonological Working short-term memory store. This phonemic information
Memory is then readily available for manipulation during
phonological awareness tasks.

Phonological retrieval is the ability to recall the
Phonological Retrieval phonemes associated with specific graphemes, which
can be assessed by rapid naming tasks.
Tasks that tap into phonological processing, such as
Phoneme Manipulation phoneme manipulation tasks (say "cat" without the
Task (Strategy) kuh), have proven to be some of the strongest
correlates and predictors of learning to read.
Defined as "the ability to form, store, and access
orthographic representations." Orthography is the
methodology of writing a language, which primarily
Orthographic Processing
consists of
spelling, but includes, contractions, punctuation and
capitalization.
Encode the meaning of a word and relate it to similar
Semantic Processing
words with similar meaning.
The order and arrangement of words in phrases and
sentences; you might depend in part on syntactic
Syntactic Processing
processing to know the difference between "The cat is
on the mat" and "The mat is on the cat."
Focus on the ways in which readers and listeners
Discourse Processing
comprehend language.
1. Cooing
2. Babbling
Development of Oral
3. One-Word Stage
Language
4. Telegraphic Stage
5. Beginning Oral Fluency
As early as six weeks, infants begin to make cooing
sounds, resemble vowel sounds. Children are learning
1. Cooing
to make sounds by manipulating their tongues,
mouths, and breathing.
Around 4-6 mo, they begin to babble making
2. Babbling repeated consonant-vowel sounds. More complex
babbling develops around 8-10 mo.
