  2. Reasons for Teaching Reading Learning to Read Reading to Learn Develop thinking skills Enhance language proficiency Broaden life experience Enrich knowledge Key Learning Area Curriculum Guide P.93

  3. Reading Aloud Shared Reading Supported Reading Independent Reading Graphophonics Syntax Semantics Reading in the HK Context Teaching Strategies for Reading Storytelling Reading Strategies

  4. Basic Reading Strategies Does this picture match the word? Does this sentence make sense? Do the sounds I want to say match the letters of the word? Would we say the words in this order? English Language Curriculum Guide (2004) A28

  5. Basic Reading Strategies Graphophonic Word e.g. symbol and sound Syntactic Sentence e.g. punctuation Semantic Text e.g. pictures and words

  6. What is phonics? • Part of teaching reading • Includes basic letter-sound relationship • Facilitates all four skills Reading / Writing Listening / Speaking

  7. Why teach phonics? Students can: • Recognized letter-sound relationships • Apply decoding skills • Improve confidence and proficiency in reading

  8. When is phonics taught? • At an early age • When ss need reading skills to read • When ss need accuracy for spelling

  9. How is phonics taught? • Single syllable words from books • Decide on sequence • One / Two letter-sounds per week • Consonant sounds firsts – then vowel sounds • Focus one way of reading and writing a vowel • Include activities • Students read out words with focus sound • Model the skill of blending

  10. Process of Reading – Interactive Model HKIEd, Reading To Learn Module 1 Knowledge, Experiences, Emotions Top-down Reader/Speaker’s Intentions Meaning Text Paragraphs Bottom-up Sentences Words Letter/Sound Awareness & Knowledge

  11. Top-down and Bottom-up Approaches and Reading “iF yuo aer a fluet reodur yuo wll hve on pRblme reOdng the sNtnce.”

  12. Features of the English Alphabet The English alphabet … 26 letters … 44+ sounds … 110+ spelling combinations (i) SAME LETTER HAS DIFFERENT SOUNDS e.g. letter ‘a’ – past, what, pat, paint, auction, warm, again (ii) SAME SOUND HAS DIFFERENT LETTERS e.g. /OR/ – for, four, more, war (iii) WORDS SOUND THE SAME BUT LOOK DIFFERENT [homophones] e.g. there, their (iv) WORDS LOOK THE SAME BUT SOUND DIFFERENT [homonyms] e.g. bow/ bow, wound/ wound, wind/ wind

  14. ELEMENTS OF PHONICS VISUAL KINESTHETIC VISUAL [& KINESTHETIC] AUDITORY VISUAL, SEMANTIC [& KINESTHETIC]

  15. Multisensory Approach 1. Visual See shape of letter 2. Auditory Hear sound of letter Saying sound of letter 3. Oral Sensory Channel Perception 4. Tactile Touching / Making shape of letter Writing (hand / body) shape of letter 5. Kinesthetic

  16. Teaching Steps READING ACTVITIES T says a few words starting with ‘c’ and asks the ss – ‘What is the first sound/letter’; and writes letter on board T elicits ss’ prior knowledge of words starting with ‘c’ and writes them on board T shows pictures of words starting with ‘c’ to elicit ss’ prior knowledge Ss skywrite the letter ‘c’ Ss write ‘c’ on back/palm of shoulder partner

  17. Importance of Games/Activities For Teaching Phonics All sensory channels are used in a variety of games andactivities so that the teaching target transfers from short-term memory to long-term memory. Rhyme, song, jingles, nursery rhymes, poetry, big books, stories with repetitive and rhythmic language, tongue twisters, games with a beat/rhythm and movement are essential here to heighten the students’ awareness of letter-sound relationships, i.e. phonics.

  18. EXAMPLES OF CREATIVE PHONICS ACTIVITIES Activities completed during this Phonics Workshop: Alphabet Chant I Spy Human Words Phoneme Frame Action Alphabet Sky Writing / Body Writing

  19. Extra Phonics Games and Activities Moulding / Feeling Letter Shapes Phonic Fans Clappinga Beat with a Partner Silent Relays Tongue Twisters Battleships Onsets and Rimes Last Letter/Sound of Previous Word Chain Word Ladder (change one letter each time) sat  pat  pet  pen  …
