Phonics

Elementary school is a time where lunches are extra sticky with applesauce, classrooms are chock-full with horseplay and petty fights, and physical education is filled with pants less children? Magnolia Park Elementary School was the place that I called home from grades one through four. Every day was filled with complete excitement being that I had two of my very best friends – Julie and Rachel – in my homeroom class. Julie, Rachel, and I were like peas and carrots; we went to language arts,…

For the lesson plan modification assignment I chose the standard, LAFS.3.RL.1.3; describe characters in a story (e.g., their traits, motivations, or feelings) and explain how their actions contribute to the sequence of events. My objective is for the student to be able to listen to information about character traits and feelings, and connect them to individuals and events in the story. Students will be able to pull details and events from the read aloud and complete the chart with specific…

identical melodic phrase and repeating it ad lib, until the music becomes a texture of sound, indistinguishable from the atmosphere of the room. The titles of the pieces reference the functional events and rooms where they might be played, such as “Phonic tiling - Can be played during a lunch or civil marriage” (1917) or “A drawing room.” (1920) The fusion of mechanical monotony with domestic naming is a precursor to the angst of the mid-century American housewife: a conflation of monotony and…

second grade, but with such a strong literacy foundation, she should have a smooth transition into this area (See Appendix A). A spelling assessment comprised of words representing the English Language Arts State Standards (2014) of phonological and phonics awareness confirmed her ability in the correct spelling stage of learning. A graph shows seven Florida ELA standards and S1’s knowledge in those areas (See Appendix…

Intervention For a child with reading difficulties to stay up to par on their grade reading level it is important to help them at the earliest stage of any signs of struggling. In preschool if there is a child who seems to be at risk of developing a reading disability immediately introduce them to phonological activities (Elbro & Petersen, 2004). Starting intervention at a young age is seen to be the most effective. The earlier intervention is started the better and intense intervention it is…

pointing (Ahlgrim-Delzell, Browder, & Wood, 2014). This use of augmentative communication device (ACC) is both functional and academic due to the fact that speech is removed from the equation makes learning to use ACC a functional skill and learning phonics is an academic skill. In study by Ḉelik and Vuran simultaneous prompting, an errorless teaching method, was used to teach leisure activity of playing cards and reading signs to student with a severe intellectual disability as a functional…

The mini-lesson will focus on decoding strategy and structural analysis for word endings: ed and ing (inflectional suffixes). TS needs to learn about context clues and the meaning clues the word itself might contain. He must understand that inflectional endings (-ed and -ing) reflect the time at which events occurred and they change the meaning of the word in a sentence. Lesson Steps: 1. Introduce the concept that is going to be taught by reading some parts of the picture book Dooby Dooby Moo…

The process of learning to read can be considered one of the most important aspect of a child’s educational foundation. The fundamental aspects of reading build a foundation for understanding throughout all educational curriculum. There are many skills that successful students possess, such as receptive and expressive language, phonological and print awareness, decoding, large vocabularies, comprehension, and fluency (Litt, 2010). In establishing this foundation, early intervention methods…

As student strengthens phonemic awareness skills their fluency builds, allow students to focus deeper on comprehension skills than on decoding words. “Many teachers provide phonics instruction to students who struggle to learn to read to compensate for initial reading problems. Often, these students become accurate decoders, but fail to reach a level of sufficient fluency (automaticity) to become efficient readers” (Rasinski…
