Module 1 Research
phonemic awareness, phonics, fluency, vocabulary, & comprehension
What are the 5 Pillars of Literacy identified by the National Reading Panel in 2000?
The ability to think about and mentally manipulate ALL units of language, e.g., sentences, syllables, speech sounds.
What is phonological awareness?
According to Ehri's definition, a word that is instantly recognized.
What is a sight word?
The understanding that speech sounds are represented with letters.
What is the Alphabetic Principle?
A word or a word part with one vowel sound.
What is a syllable?
phonological awareness, alphabet knowledge, & rapid naming of letters and digits
What are some early predictors of reading success?
The ability to recognize, isolate, blend, segment and manipulate the individual sounds or phonemes within words. It is a subset of phonological awareness.
What is phonemic awareness?
Pre-alphabetic, Partial Alphabetic, Full Alphabetic, Consolidated Alphabetic
What are reading phases?
Graphemes (letters or groups of letters) represent this.
The are six types - closed, open, magic e, vowel team, r-controlled, and C-le
A mathematical formula that predicts reading comprehension. It has 2 factors - word recognition and language comprehension.
What is the Simple View of Reading?
The level of phonological awareness at which students need to be proficient to benefit reading and spelling?
Emergent, Letter Name- Alphabetic, Within Word Pattern, Syllables and Affixes
What are spelling stages?
There are approximately 44 of these in the English language.
What are phonemes?
The number of syllable in a word is equal to the number of this.
What are vowel sounds?
This model of reading breaks down Oral Language and Word Recognition into its component parts so we can better understand our students' needs and provide targeted instruction.
What is Scarborough's Reading Rope?
This oral language skill develops along a continuum from sentence awareness to phonemic awareness?
What is phonological awareness?
This occurs in the brain when sounds are repeatedly matched with letters.
What is orthographic mapping?
To look at the graphemes (letter or letter pattern) and connect each one to its phoneme (sound).
What is reading?
Identifying syllable types helps the reader unlock this sound.
What are vowel sounds?
This is an evidence-based model that tells us what to teach and how to teach it. It includes the Elements (what to teach) and Principles (how to teach).
What is Structured Literacy?
This group of readers have relative difficulty with phoneme awareness and other phonological skills.
What are struggling readers?
This is the reason for understanding reading and spelling development.
What is making instructional decisions based on the phases and stages?
The process of breaking a word into its sequence of phonemes (sounds) and connecting them to the appropriate graphemes (letters).
What is spelling?
Knowing these patterns helps students read mulitsyllabic words.
What are syllable division patterns?
