Ready to Read Phonological Awareness What is it and how do we teach it?
ELACCKRF2: Demonstrate understanding of spoken words, syllables, and sounds (phonemes). a. Recognize and produce rhyming words. b. Count, pronounce, blend, and segment syllables in spoken words. c. Blend and segment onsets and rimes of single-syllable spoken words. d. Isolate and pronounce the initial, medial vowel, and final sounds (phonemes) in three-phoneme (consonant-vowel-consonant, or CVC) words. (This does not include CVCs ending with /l/, /r/, or /x/.) e. Add or substitute individual sounds (phonemes) in simple, one-syllable words to make new words. ELACC1RF2: Demonstrate understanding of spoken words, syllables, and sounds (phonemes). a. Distinguish long from short vowel sounds in spoken single-syllable words. b. Orally produce single-syllable words by blending sounds (phonemes), including consonant blends. c. Isolate and pronounce initial, medial vowel, and final sounds (phonemes) in spoken single-syllable words. d. Segment spoken single-syllable words into their complete sequence of individual sounds (phonemes). The Standards
Key Terms Phonemes Phonemic Awareness Phonological Awareness
What is a Phoneme? • A phoneme is the smallest unit of sound within our language system. They are the sounds that make up the words of our language.
Phonemic Awareness (PA) • The insight that every spoken word is a sequence of phonemes. It is the ability to understand that sounds in spoken language work together to make words.
Phonemic Awareness • Phonemic awareness is not related to print, a child can have some levels of awareness before they learn the alphabet. • Students need solid phonemic awareness training for phonics instruction to be effective. • Approximately 20-40% of children have difficulty with phonemic awareness.
What is Phonological Awareness? • Phonological Awareness refers to one’s awareness of the phonological structure of words in language. It is a more inclusive term than phonemic awareness and it encompasses awareness of individual words in sentences, syllables, and onset-rime segments, as well as awareness of individual phonemes.
So how do you know if a child needs instruction in phonological and phonemic awareness?
