Developing Phonological AwarenessHear rhymesHear similaritiesHear differencesHear alliterationHear intonationHear syllablesHear RhymesWhich words rhyme?Town, gown, luckHear SimilaritiesWhich words are the same?Upstairs, downstairs, upstairsHear DifferencesWhich word is different?Lock, lock, doorHear AlliterationWhat is the same in each word?Wee Willie WinkieHear IntonationsWhat words sound different?Are all the children in their beds? Its past eight oclock!Hear SyllablesHow many word parts?Wee Willie Winkieclap clap clap clap clap

Phonemic Awareness (Subunit of phonological Awareness)Ability to hear, identify, and manipulate the sounds in spoken words

Phonemic Awareness (PA) TasksPhoneme IsolationPhoneme IdentityPhoneme CategorizationPhoneme blendingPhoneme segmentationPhoneme deletionPhoneme additionPhoneme substitutionPA: Phoneme IsolationListen:What is the first sound in cat?

PA: Phoneme identificationListenWhat sound is the same in cat, car, and come?

PA: PHoneme categorizationListenWhat word does not belong?Cap, cat, matPA: Phoneme BlendingListenWhat is this word?k/a/tPA: Phoneme SegmentationListenHow many sounds in mat? m/a/tPA: Phoneme DeletionListenWhat is cat without /k/?PA: Phoneme AdditionListenWhat is the word if you add /r/ to the start of /at/?

PA: Phoneme substitutionListenThe word is hot.Change the /h/ in hat to /m/

2nd NRP Dimension: Explicit Systematic PhonicsPhonics is different than phonemic awarenessSome phonemic awareness is necessary to teach phonicsPhonics is the direct, sequential teaching of the relationship between the sounds of spoken language (sounds=phonemes) and the symbols of written language (alphabet, letters=graphemes)Phonics Learning Sequence: Some components can be taught togetherPhonological Awareness and Phonemic Awareness Alphabetic Principal AlphabetConsonantsShort vowels, CVC, CCVCC (C=consonant, V=vowel) What words fit the patterns?Long vowels, CVCe, CVVC, CCVCC What words fit the patterns?Consonant blends and digraphs ex. Consonant blends-black, green; consonant digraphs-shut,childR controlled vowels ex. CarVowel dipthongs (ex. toy), digraphs (ex. chair)Multisyllabic words words with more than 1 syllable

Pre-Kindergarten: Phonological Awareness and Phonemic AwarenessBegin to map sounds to letterHear beginning/common soundsAttend to rhyme, rhythm and repetition in spoken languageWhich word starts like your name?

Kindergarten: Phonological Awareness, Phonemic Awareness, alphabet, and PhonicsSegment and count phonemes (subunits of sounds = c/a/t) in wordsBlend phonemes and onset-rime/spelling patterns (onsets are initial consonants in syllables and spelling patterns are the vowel(s) and letters after it in a syllable= c/at)Recognize and produce rhyming wordsRecognize sounds as same or differentLetter sound correspondences-Associate sounds to symbols (letters)Phonics - Decode (pronounce) and spell CVC wordsWebsiteswww.readwritethink.org
