  1. Welcome Please take a seat at a table with materials.

  2. Today’s Class • Learn about alphabet recognition: how to teach it and how to assess it • Examine phonological awareness: what does it include? Why is it important? How do you teach it? How do you assess it?

  3. Five Components of Reading • Phonemic Awareness • Ability to orally compose a sequence of sounds and manipulate these sounds to form words • Phonics • Ability to recognize the relation between the written language and the spoken language • Oral Guided Reading • Practice with guidance from a more skilled reader • Fluency • Ability to read orally with speed and accuracy • Vocabulary • Ability to use words orally and in written communication by applying word meaning effectively • Comprehension • Ability to apply meaning to what is read

  5. The Z Was Zappedhttp://www.ictgames.com/sky_writing.html 1. What words can you think of that begin with the letters of your first name? Can you think of words that describe you? • What is an “act” in a play? 3. As I read, make the letters with your body. • Can you act out the letters? • Can you illustrate a letter? 6. Could we make our own innovation, and go through the same process? http://www.hipark.austin.isd.tenet.edu/grade3/guenther/zapped/kids_site/z_was_zapped.htm

  6. Alphabetic Principle: The ability to associate sounds with letters and use these sounds to form words. • Letter names • Letter shapes or forms • Letter sounds

  7. Alphabet recognition is important because… • Students who know letters of the alphabet have more success learning about letter sounds. • Research indicates that letter/sound knowledge is a prerequisite to recognizing words. • Because our language is alphabetic, decoding is an essential and primary means of recognizing words.

  9. The alphabetic principle: How do you teach it? • The name of this letter is _____ . • The sound this letter makes is _____ . • What sound does this letter make with your mouth? • The way you make this letter is _____ .

  10. Activities to Develop Alphabet Recognition • Reading ABC books • Singing songs with alphabet names • Environmental print, including own name • Playing, reading, and writing uppercase/lowercase letters • Magnetic, foam, plastic, tracer, stamp letters • Matching letters in words

  11. Assessing Alphabet Recognition

  12. When to teach the alphabet • As a kindergarten/first grade teacher, what parts of the day seem most conducive to address the alphabetic principle? • Must children “know the alphabet” in order to read? • Or is “knowing the alphabet” primarily a spelling skill?

  13. Connections to the R.I.C.A • What did you find out? • How does the R.I.C.A. assess what you know and understand about Concepts about Print and the Alphabetic Principle? • http://www.rica.nesinc.com/PDFs/RC_content_specs.pdf

  14. Phonological Awareness • Phoneme c/a/t vs. r/a/t • Phonemic awareness • Phonemic awareness vs. phonics • Phonological awareness

  15. Why is it important? • Helps Ss understand… Letters represent sounds in oral language Blend to read words Segment to spell • Minimal level needed in order to benefit from phonics instruction • Reading instruction

  16. Developing Phonological Awareness • Sequence: - rhymes - words vs. sentences - syllables - phonemes …onset and rimes (c/at, l/ot, r/ing) …initial, final, medial …blending …segmenting …manipulating

  17. Pease porridge hot!Pease porridge cold!Pease porridge in the potNine days old.Some like it hot,Some like it cold,Some like it in the potNine days old! Rhymes • Using nursery rhymes • Recite in whispers, rhyming words loud. • Recite loudly, whisper rhyming words. • Recite in round. • Seated in circle, Ss recite successive lines, one at a time, in turn. • Seated in a circle, Ss recite successive words, one at time, in turn.

  18. Rhymes • Using Movement • Pease Porridge Hot (cold/old, hot/pot) • One Potato, Two Potato (more, four) • Eeny Meeny Miney Mo (Mo, toe, go, Mo) • Baa, Baa Black Sheep (wool, full) • One, Two, Buckle My Shoe (two, shoe; four, door; and so on)

  25. King’s/Queen’s Commands marching tiptoeing boogy-woogying hammering rollerskating waving bowing leaning sewing wiggling clapping nodding stretching waddling curtsying reading

  26. For next time… READ: Read: Honig et al., chapters 7 and 8 Be ready to discuss these chapters in class. DO: Language Arts Assignment 4: Go on your guided reading visit. Take notes.
