The Braid of Literacy • Interwoven Components • Orthography • Reading • Oral Language • Writing
Orthographic Stages • Orthographic stages correspond to movement through orthographic layers • Alphabet Pattern Meaning Emergent stage Emergent reading Letter Name Beginning reading Within Word Pattern Transitional reading Syllables & Affixes Intermediate Reading Derivational Relationships Advanced Reading
Emergent Stage • Characteristics • Scribbles letters & numbers • Lacks concept of word • Lacks letter-sound correspondence • Pretends to read and write
Letter-Name Alphabetic Stage • Characteristics • Represents beginning & ending sounds • Uses letter names to invent spelling • Functional concept of word • Reads word by word
Within Word Pattern Stage • Characteristics • Spells most CVC words correctly • Uses beginning consonant digraph/blends • Attempts long vowel markers • Reads silently with fluency and expression • Writes more fluently • Can revise and edit
Syllables & Affixes Stage • Characteristics • Spells most single syllable words correctly • Errors at syllable juncture • Reads with good fluency & expression • Writes responses that are sophisticated and critical • Reads faster silently than orally • We went out west last sumer.We drove a littel camper bus.We stoped at Nashal Parks and went hikeing in the mountens.
Derivational Relations Stage • Characteristics • Mastered high frequency words • Errors on Greek/Latin low-frequency words • Reads with fluency & expression • Writes responses that are sophisticated and critical • Reads faster silently than orally Math is not my faverite subject and I don’t always enjoy it.It’s been mostly easy and sometimes challegin. I like it when we use math in recipes and mesure ingredence.
Assessing for Instruction: ESI • Elementary Spelling Inventory ( Grades 1-6) • Simple • Whole-Group • Valid, Reliable Results • Assesses what Students KNOW, not what they don’t ( resists deficit model)
Student Sample • bed • Ship • whin • lump • flote • trane • plase • jrive • brite • shoping • Spoile • surving 13. chued 14. carrys 15. martched 16. chowr 17. botel 18. faver 19.ripin 20. seler 21. pleshur 22.fortunt 23. cofdnut 24. sivalice 25. opsititin
WTW Overview • https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FrRDR9pPDvM
Beginning Instruction • Begin with what students “use but confuse” • Word Sorts – address complexities of English • Identifies patterns • Points out oddities • https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nniK8uX_MTc
Let’s Try it Out! • You will be given a sort from one of the WTW stages. • Together we will “walk through” the following sorts: • Open • Closed/Writing • Speed • Word Hunt
The Great Part… • It doesn’t matter how many groups you have, the procedure stays the same – only the sorts change!
