Quick Quiz Phonemic Phonological, or Phonics?
1.
2.
How many syllables does a spoken word have?
Phonological: break down word into smaller parts Say a word that rhymes with
bat
.
(Phonological- rhyming sounds)

How many sounds are in
cup
?
Phonemic – break into individual phonemes Find all of the words in the sentence that have the letter that makes the /m/
mmmmm
sound.
Phonics- match sounds to letters

ASSESSING PHONOLOGICAL AWARENESS identify and make oral rhymes;
"The pig has a (wig)." "Pat the (cat)." "The sun is (fun)."
identify and work with syllables in spoken words;
"I can clap the parts in my name: An drew."
ASSESSING PHONOLOGICAL AWARENESS identifying and working with onsets and rimes in spoken syllables or one syllable words;
"The first part of sip is s-." "The last part of win is -in."
identifying and working with individual phonemes in spoken words.
"The first sound in sun is /s/."
Teaching Phonemic and Phonological Awareness Teachers need to be aware of instructional activities that can help their students become aware of phonemes reading skills develop.
before
they receive formal reading instruction; they need to realize that phonemic awareness will become more sophisticated as students'
Teaching Phonemic and Phonological Awareness Research indicates that phonological awareness can be taught and that students who increased their awareness of phonemes facilitated their subsequent reading acquisition (Lundberg et al, 1988).
Teaching Phonemic and Phonological Awareness General Principles Research (NRP) indicates that phonological awareness can be taught and that students who increased their awareness of phonemes facilitated their subsequent reading acquisition (Lundberg et al, 1988).

Teaching Phonemic and Phonological Awareness ( General Principles) (1) Engage children in activities that direct their attention to the sounds in words, such as rhyming and alliteration games .(Example) (2) Teach students to segment and blend . (Example) (3) Combine training in segmentation and blending with instruction in letter-sound relationships. .(Example) Phonemic Awareness: An Important Early Step in Learning To Read. ERIC Digest.
Teaching Phonemic and Phonological Awareness General Principles (4) Teach segmentation and blending as complementary processes. .(Example) (5) Systematically sequence examples when teaching segmentation and blending. .(Example) (6) Teach for transfer to novel tasks and contexts.
Teaching Phonemic and Phonological Awareness General Principles (a) Keep a sense of playfulness and fun, avoid drill and rote memorization. (b) Use group settings that encourage interaction among children. (c) Encourage children's curiosity about language and their experimentation with it. (d) Allow for and be prepared for individual differences.
Phonological Development Activities General Principles (e) Make sure the tone of the activity is not evaluative but rather fun and informal. Spending a few minutes daily engaging preschool, kindergarten, and first-grade [and older] children in oral activities that emphasize the sounds of language may go a long way in helping them become successful readers and learners.
Teaching Phonological Awareness - Practices
RHYMING AND ALLITERATION BLENDING AND SEGMENTING LETTER SOUND RELATIONSHIPS MODEL BLENDING AND SEGMENTING THOUGH THE PROCESS TRANSITION TO NEW CONTENT
5 Levels of Phonological Ability Adams (1990) to hear rhymes and alliteration as measured by knowledge of nursery rhymes to do oddity tasks (comparing and contrasting the sounds of words for rhyme and alliteration) to blend and split syllables
5 Levels of Phonological Ability Adams (1990) to perform phonemic segmentation (such as counting out the number of phonemes in a word) to perform phoneme manipulation tasks (such as adding, deleting a particular phoneme and regenerating a word from the remainder).
Differentiated Instruction
More advanced activities are those in which students
delete or add phonemes to form new words,
and activities in which students
substitute phonemes to make new words .
Differentiated Instruction
Activities for students in the early stages should include
identifying and categorizing phonemes
.
Students who can identify and categorize phonemes should work with activities that help them learn to
blend phonemes to form words and to segment words into phonemes.
