Prior to the comprehensive works and visionary thinking of William Stokoe, the American Deaf community remained deprived of recognition as a culture and community that shared a complex and intricate language rich in structure and system. Shortly after Stokoe began his twenty-nine year exploration of Sign Language at Gallaudet University in 1955, the Deaf Community’s future as an acknowledged independent community became immeasurably brighter. Through almost three decades of research,…

without any specific prior language experiences. But unfortunately, this ability sharply declines within the first year of life (Werker et al., 1984). The associative contingency learning created by this mobile is going to help preserve the ability of phoneme discrimination within the critical period during when the infants are considered to be the “citizens of the world.” Additionally, long-term benefits with regard to better accent and pronunciation when learning a second language can be…

Having spent ten years of my life in a small village in the southeast portion of Iran and the remaining thirteen in the United States, I have come to feel at home in two worlds; possessing native competency in the languages, cultures, and logics that dominate the spheres of thinking in both nations. Upon immigrating to the Unites States, neither I nor my family members spoke any English. I recall the first day I sat in a class in the U.S.—it was my fourth grade class and I was the only student…

Section A: Introduction Over the past years, I have looked for ways to help students achieve literacy goals in order for them to succeed in second grade and on. Mertler (2014) helped me guide my action research by collecting the information using the guide questions he provided. My dilemma since I started working as a teacher over seven years was helping struggling readers and writers master their syllables. According to the state standards, students are expected to know the letters and its…

According to the Department of Education, Science, and Training (2005, p. 36) more than 74% of the children entering first grade who are at risk for reading failure will continue to have reading problems into adulthood. This means teachers have the large task of ensuring each student possesses a solid foundation built up with a range of strategies in order for them to learn how to read. One way reading skills can be taught is through the use of early, explicit and systematic phonics. Teaching…

This course has provided me with a strong understanding of how students in the primary grades learn to read and write and what I need to do to ensure I provide my students with the best literacy learning experiences. More specifically, I have learned foundations of literacy instruction, principles of effective literacy teachers, stages of literacy development, common core standards, the reading and writing processes, different way to assess and assessment tools, how to organize for reading and…

On different types of English ambiguity 摘要：Linguistic is the scientific study of language, which studies not just one language of any one community, but the language of all human beings.

In English, we usually confront with ambiguous sentence, that is to say we can understand in two ways or more ways. We make a brief…

Does language have a positive effect on phonemic awareness in several demographic groups? If so, what patterns emerge from among the demographic groups when compared to each other.

In a 2013 study, Snowling focuses on early diagnosis and intervention for children with dyslexia. Most commonly, intervention first targets the areas of individual letter sounds and phoneme awareness, and with progress, will be incorporated together through reading and writing at the appropriate level (Snowling, 2013). Using methods of intervention that are specific to the child’s interests and literacy needs will produce the best results…
