Awareness And Phonological Awareness

Decent Essays
Print awareness is known to be the achievements generally acquired by children along a continuum that is developing. They can be developing their print interest, start recognizing the print functions, develop an understanding for print conventions (being able to read a print from top to bottom and left to right) and print forms, along with being able to recognize the print part to whole relationship. Now phonological awareness is another metalinguistic skill that brings sensitivity to the sound structures of words children hear.

    Two examples of other informal reading assessments are the Phonics Mastery Survey and Phonemic Awareness Assessments. The Phonics Mastery Survey is an informal tool for assessing various phonics elements. This assessment measures a student’s ability to recognize consonant sounds, rhyming words, consonant digraphs, long vowel sounds, words with CVC patterns, consonant blends, variant vowel sounds, and syllables in words (DeVries 2011 p.112). A student’s ability to use knowledge of sound/letter correspondences to decode words, determines his or her ability to read individual words. Knowing the skills that the students possess will assist the teacher in selecting reading tasks that offer the most effective reinforcement of those phonics skills.…

    Teachers Knowledge and Perceptions of Phonemic Awareness and Phonics Instruction A well-known body of research concluded that the systematic and explicit phonics and phonemic awareness instructions improve early reading and spelling skills and prevent reading difficulties (NRP, 2000; Snow et al., 1998). Therefore, teachers’ knowledge and perceptions of these instructions affect the effectiveness of reading instructions. According to Mather, Bos, and Babur (2001), teachers were not knowledgeable enough about the concepts of English language structure (phonics terminology), even though the teachers had positive perceptions about explicit phonics instructions. For example, only 2% of pre-service and 19% of in-service teachers (293 pre-service and 131 in-service teachers) knew that box has four speech sounds.…

    It is a common misconception that spoken language is required in order to learn to read and write. This is especially the case when referring to print that is pronounced phonetically. However, the ability to acquire literacy is not unique to those who have spoken language. Deaf adults are also capable of achieving adequate skills in literacy, without any auditory input. While there is a surplus of research dedicated to analyzing how hard of hearing and deaf children with cochlear implants or hearing aids learn to read and write, there are only a handful of researchers who have dove deep into the topic of how profoundly deaf children acquire written language.…

    One thing a parent could do to prevent this is to have your child follow along with his/her finger as you read a story. In the Phonological Awareness assessment syllable blending and pronouncing and phoneme alliteration and discrimination were some of his strengths. While on the other hand some of his weaknesses were syllable segmenting and counting, phoneme substitution, phoneme deletion, and phoneme isolation of medial sounds. Another strategy that could be helpful is counting the words in a line of print or clap for each word spoken to help develop the children`s concept of word.
