What is a key component of structured literacy instruction? correct answers Integrating explicit,
systematic teaching of decoding and encoding skills.
How do standards help teachers keep lessons consistent throughout the school year? correct
answers By giving teachers a clear guide on what to teach and when.
Dyslexia is a visual problem where individuals see letters and words backward. correct answers
False - Dyslexia is primarily a language-based learning disability affecting reading and decoding,
not a visual issue involving seeing letters backward.
To teach reading most effectively, teachers should use Discovery Learning correct answers False
- While Discovery Learning can be valuable, effective reading instruction often combines
various methods including explicit instruction and structured approaches.
literacy correct answers the ability to read, write, and understand information, enabling effective
communication and comprehension
the reading brain correct answers the network of brain regions that work together to decode,
comprehend, and interpret written language
systematic instruction correct answers instruction that presents concepts in order, beginning with
the easiest concepts and increasing in difficulty, with new concepts being built on prior
knowledge
explicit Instruction correct answers a systematic and direct teaching approach where educators
clearly and directly teach specific concepts, skills, or strategies involving providing clear
explanations, modeling, guided practice, and feedback to facilitate understanding and mastery of
the material
A teacher would like to start a new spelling curriculum. She found free online curriculum with
several fun resources. The source was not accessible for all learners. She compared it to a
,resource suggested by her district, which has been aligned with evidence-based research and is
founded on best practices for spelling. She decided to use the resource suggested by her district.
Which of the Four Considerations is this teacher using? correct answers Differentiation/High
Leverage Practices for Supporting All Learners
Imagine a teacher preparing to teach reading to a class with different reading abilities. They need
to figure out how to teach in a certain way. That means breaking down reading into smaller parts
like sounds, word meanings, and how sentences work. By doing this, the teacher can ensure that
everyone in the class learns well, regardless of their reading level. correct answers Structured
Literacy
A teacher preparing to teach her class how to read a new book needs to think about what type of
book will best fit her students. Does she choose a story that's too easy and will make them bored?
Or one that is too hard, and they will struggle with? She needs to pick just the right book that
will challenge them just enough to keep them engaged and learning. correct answers Selection of
Materials
A kindergarten teacher is planning reading instruction for his students. Based on his observations
and data, he chooses two different word sort activities, one for students reading at grade level
and one for students reading below grade level. correct answers Differentiation/High leverage
practices for supporting all learners
A teacher observes that some students in her class struggle with reading comprehension despite
receiving the same instruction as their peers. She understands the importance of identifying the
specific aspect of instruction that needs consideration to address their needs effectively. This
involves assessing whether the students require additional support in phonemic awareness,
phonics, fluency, vocabulary, or comprehension and then planning targeted instruction
accordingly. correct answers MTSS- "MTSS" is correct as it focuses on identifying and
addressing specific needs through targeted, tiered support within a Multi-Tiered System of
Supports.
Phonology correct answers the study of sounds in language, like how words are made up of
different sounds and how those sounds come together to form words. It helps us understand how
we speak and how we hear language.
, Sound-Symbol correct answers the understanding that letters and letter combinations (symbols)
make different sounds.
Syllables correct answers parts of a word that contains one vowel sound, with or without
surrounding consonant sounds. When we say words, we can hear different syllables by noticing
the beats or sounds in the word.
Morphology correct answers the study of how words are put together with smaller parts called
morphemes, which can be prefixes, suffixes, or root words. By understanding morphology, we
can figure out the meaning and structure of words.
Syntax correct answers the grammar rules for putting words together in sentences. It helps us
understand how to arrange words in the correct order to make clear and meaningful sentences
Semantics correct answers the meaning of words and how they relate to each other. It helps us
understand the meanings of sentences and how words connect to form clear and meaningful
communication.
Systematic and Cumulative correct answers instruction that presents concepts in a logical order,
beginning with the easiest concepts and increasing in difficulty. Each new concept is built on
prior knowledge.
Explicit correct answers instruction provided by the teacher clearly and on an appropriate level.
Diagnostic correct answers instruction that includes ongoing formal and informal assessment and
focused on a student's individualized and specific needs.
multi-tiered systems of support (MTSS) correct answers a framework that provides varying
levels of academic and behavioral interventions to support the diverse needs of all students
