Direct Route Vs Phonological Approach

Improved Essays
From a young age, people are taught how to read. Beginning readers have a hard time distinguishing words; looking at words is not something that is automatic to them. New readers need certain techniques to help with words and as they progress as readers, distinguishing words becomes an automatic process until they no longer need help with words. They have it on their own.
According to the dual route reading model, readers are broken into two routes: the direct route (words are easily recognized with just sight) or the phonological route (used to spelling-to-sound rules to distinguish words.) With the direct route, a reader was skilled and has an extensive vocabulary. With the phonological route, a reader was a beginner and does not have an

    Cormac’s intervention will include explicit instruction in the semantic and syntactic (ability to use context clues) cueing systems, as well as the graphophonic (knowledge of letter sound correspondence) cueing system because developing and accessing these three systems in combination, is an integral part of becoming a proficient reader. I will provide Cormac with a cueing systems bookmark (figure 3) to serve as a reminder for Cormac to use these three cueing systems to process and read unfamiliar text.…

    The traditional method for intervention puts students with a specific language at a disadvantage by identifying SLD students later. RTI enables teacher’s through consistent progress monitoring to identify SLD students early to receive more intensive interventions. RTI also brings together the general education teacher and the special education together to create effective and efficient interventions. The traditional model required the special education teacher and general education teacher to work independently. The traditional model had larger more crowded classrooms whereas, RTI has smaller class sizes that focus on more individualized instruction.…

    Learning to Read Malcom X 1) Generally speaking, people start off learning to read at a young age. They primarily attend school, where they are taught with images and words in which they learn to formulate small sentences at a time. They are given “beginners” vocabulary which begins to advance with one’s cognitive understanding, age, and grade.…

    This pre-alphabetic stage allows the reader to associate words by symbols with no regards for the alphabetic letters or sounds that make up the word. This stage is followed by the partial alphabetic stage at which the reader will recognize the relationship between letters and sounds and will focus on the easiest segment of the word to identify. Partial alphabetic stage becomes a gateway to letter recognition, sound blending, and pronunciation as students embrace the stage of full alphabetic recognition. As the level of recognition increases through repeated reading, students will soon enter the final stage of consolidated alphabetic recognition. This stage is developed through the use of repeated reading and recognition of patterns, as the information is stored in an instant memory…

    Learning to read is a skill many can obtain quickly or not so well. Myself, on the other hand was one of the many children who struggled with not only the thought of reading, but the actual process of reading not only a book, but sentences, word and sounding out words. Struggling through elementary with reading problems and on and off again help made it seem even worse. Going into kindergarten was intimidating, with all the bright colored posters with words even I couldn’t read. Having to be assigned seats next to strangers who soon would become my closest friends.…

    Reading can be seen as a gateway to education that in turn paves the path to acquiring successful career opportunities. As a developing country, many members of our society struggle with the disability to read fluently. This may be attributed to the inability to decode, comprehend text and read at an appropriate rate that can be generalized to improper teaching and learning techniques. A series of tests on dual coding hypothesis by Sadoski, Goetz and Paivio (2001) have suggested that it could be applied to reading comprehension, written composition and a combination of both reading and writing. As Sadoski (2005) states, “All knowledge, meaning, and memory is explained by representation and processing within and between the two codes in this…

    The cueing system is a formal structure that helps to enable young children decipher language and develop their reading (Moats, 2000). The system consists of three main categories; semantic, syntactic and graphophonic which aid in creating functional and fluent reading (Moats, 2000). Each category consists of supports in which students are to use in how they figure out unknown words they encounter whilst reading and also to gain meaning from the text, this can be seen in the graph below. Cueing Systems Graphophonic Syntatic Semantic • Phonics • Phonemic Awareness • Letters • Sounds • Spelling • Vocabulary • Grammar • Tenses • Comprehension • Making sense of texts (Graph adapted from Dr Ali Cullerton, Ph.D (2015) Semantic…

    The principles the text discusses are, “Look for what students use but confuse, remember a step backward is a step forward, use words that students can read, compare words that ‘do’ with words that ‘don’t’, begin with obvious contrasts, sort words by sound and pattern, don’t hide exceptions, avoid rules, work for automaticity, and return to meaningful texts” (Bear et.al, 87). If educators follow the previous principles, as well as identify students development throughout the academic year while providing word sort examples or activities for students to complete, continual student achievement and growth will be identified in the classroom. Once students are able to recognize words, they will further learn the importance that words hold in constructing and communicating meaning, and overall in helping them become literate students and individuals in…

    Spacing Word Boundaries

    Introduction In recent decades there has been attention to how spacing has an effect in first and second language reading, for which the development of eye-tracking technology has allowed a deeper understanding. The importance of these findings are linked to information on how readers process language and its implications to language teaching. Some researchers have explored spacing and word boundaries within writing systems, focusing on its effects on readers’ landing positions and saccades (e.g., Li, Liu, & Rayner, 2011; 2015), fixations and word frequency (e.g., Yan, Tian, Bai, & Rayner, 2006; Li et al., 2013), word identification (e.g., Li, Rayner, & Cave, 2009; Epelboim et al., 1996), acquisition of new vocabulary (e.g., Blythe et al.,…
