Sight And Phonic Method

The Fry Sight-Word Inventory is an informal, criterion-referenced screener which measures high-frequency word achievement. Fry 's Instant Words have been determined as the most common words used in English ranked in order of frequency. Specifically, Fry found that twenty-five words make up approximately a third of all items published, one-hundred words comprise almost half of all of the words found in publications, and three-hundred words make up approximately sixty-five percent of all written material. The first three-hundred words on Fry’s list should be mastered by the end of corresponding grade levels, and lists four through ten should be mastered between fourth and fifth grades. Each hundred words are broken down even further into twenty-five words per list, according to difficulty and frequency, and should be assessed sequentially. The goal of progress monitoring high-frequency word mastery is to increase fluency on high-frequency words in order to further automaticity within our students’ reading, which ultimately impacts overall comprehension.

Gross (2010) state that children should systematically be taught to read through phonics and not by memorising “whole words”; by the late 1970’s teachers were no longer fond of that approach as it was not working because children were still struggling to read, it was dull and repetitive and new words were introduced at a

The contrasting perspectives of the two passages, “CliffsTestPrep” by Jerry Bobrow (2006) and “The Place of Phonics in Learning to Read and Write” by Marie Emmitt (2013), address the issue of the importance of phonemic awareness in reading and writing scores. Bobrow believes that phonemic awareness is important to understand since it affects reading scores. Emmitt however, argues that there is no evidence that phonemic awareness has a major impact on reading achievement.

This type of intervention will be used because having students simply look up definitions in a dictionary for unknown words doesn’t typically result in a transfer of word knowledge to reading comprehension tasks. First, the clinician will select a list of words from a curricular topic and other words that are new but don’t fit with the topic, and present the words to Chloe in oral and written form. Chloe will be encouraged to engage in “exclusive brainstorming” in which she discusses the words and decides which words go with their topic for the day and which don’t. A chart can be used for Chloe to mark, “can define,” “have seen/heard,” or “beats me!” about each individual word. The clinician will then provide a description, explanation, or example of the new terms to relate the word to curricular topics. Chloe will then be asked to restate the description, explanation, or example of each term in her own words, by connecting it to her experiences or knowledge. Chloe will be instructed to create a picture, pictograph, or symbolic representation of the term as well as, including the word, definition, and picture. She will keep each term in a vocabulary notebook for future reference and be encouraged to use the new words in verbal story-telling and writing (Blachowicz, 1986) (Marzano,

Show the list of words to the student and have the student attempt to read the words.

In the video, Marty, the 1st grade instructor, talks about the extension level book for the 1st graders. His methods includes the different reading methods we went over, phonetic cue reading, true alphabetic reading and orthographic reading. At around 2:30, words written on whiteboard are held up, and the children repeat what their instructor say, the sound of orthographic patterns in the beginning and end of the word to help them pronounce the word. This practice includes the phonetic cue reading and true alphabet reading. This can easily be used for orthographic reading as well. The kids were most likely older for his extension level book to have logographic reading. Marty has focused on inflectional ending, short vowel sounds, e.t.c. The

The four-cueing systems that educators should incorporate within their classroom are phonological (sound), syntactic (structural), semantic (meaning), and pragmatic (social/cultural). According to Tompkins, these systems make it possible for children and adults to read, write, listen, and talk. For beginning readers and writers emphasis should be placed on the phonological system because it applies to phonics skills to decode and spell words (Tompkins, 2014). Ways that educators can apply the phonological system within their lesson is by pointing out rhyming words, decoding words when reading, dividing words into syllables, and pronouncing words. The syntactic system can be used in the classroom by adding inflectional endings to words, creating compound words, and teaching appropriate sentence structure. Educators can teach the semantic system by teaching students the meaning of a word, and studying synonyms, antonyms, and homonyms. The pragmatic system can be taught by varying language to fit a specific purpose, reading and writing dialogue in

Designing an individual intervention to increase reading fluency requires completion of assessments that will determine the child’s reading strengths and weaknesses. An inaccurate reader needs direct instruction on improving word recognition, which may include sight words and decodable words (which rules is the student not applying) at their instructional level. Once the goals have been established, in this case fluency, the intervention will begin with an introduction on fluency and word recognition.

Ehri’s Phases of Word Reading and Spelling Development has four different phases that are used to describe the progressive stages of a reader. The first phase is the Pre-alphabetic phase, in this phase there is no letter to sound consciousness only visual features of a word which the students use as a reminder of how to read the words. Phase two is the Partial Alphabetic. When readers are in this phase they use some of the letters in the word (mainly the first and the last letters) to attempt to pronounce the word. Phase three is the Full Alphabetic Phase. In this phase the readers are now able to use and understand the alphabetic connections in words. The readers are now able to map graphemes to phonemes of words that have been read to them

Students were pretested before the two groups were put in this experiment, the pretest tested for running record of text reading, letter identification, concepts about print, word reading, writing vocabulary, and hearing and recording sounds in words. Once the pretest was done, teachers started the EBP and throughout were testing students on phoneme segmentation, deletion task, slosson oral reading, and degrees of reading power. Once the Reading Recovery was completed, students with vocabulary improved 13.75 times than a student that was not included in this practice, also improvement of 4.60 times with hearing and recording sounds with words. Other ending results were the improvement of letter identification by

There are several different types of phonics but the two main types are implicit and explicit (Ruddell, 2009). The implicit approach, or analytic, is when the teacher teaches the relation between sounds and letters in the context of the word it is found in. This means you are looking at the whole word and not isolating sounds. The explicit approach, or synthetic, approach is the opposite of the analytic approach. Instead of looking at the word as a whole, the teacher looks at each individual sound (Ruddell, 2009). From what I know I believe that both of these need to be brought into the classroom. It is important for the child to know each sound so they are able to sound out unfamiliar words in their readings but it is also important for them to be able to recognize a word in context so they can identify words easily and quicker. In my experience in classrooms I have noticed the different ways these approaches were used. In my kindergarten placement the teacher usually used the explicit approach. Each day we would concentrate on two or three letters and the sounds they made. We would practice the pronunciation and read a poem or sing a song with the letter in it. In my second grade class the teacher had a very different way. She would have the children look at the whole

What is Phonics? Phonics is the teaching of the association of sounds with letter identification. With that, there is an extreme amount of emphasis on word decoding skills to help a student sound out unfamiliar words. Phonics is actually a word-recognition strategy that becomes a teaching method only through heavy emphasis. Using phonetic principles, youngsters learn to associate the correct sound with each part of a word and to recognize and pronounce words. (Farr 2004) Phonics systematically teaches a child to break the code of written language. (Ghate 2003) Children are taught to identify letter-sound correspondence with phonics, which helps them put together a word by using sounds.

How did you learn to read? Most of us do not put much thought into this question, but learning to read is a difficult task. According to Cervetti and Hiebert, the National Reading Panel identified five essential components that a teacher should use during reading instruction, which gives the student the highest chance of being an effective reader (2015, p. 548). These five essential components are also called five pillars of reading instruction. They are Phonics, phonemic awareness, vocabulary, fluency and comprehension. This paper will describe each of the five pillars, how they are related, the benefits, as well as give some effective methods of teaching phonics and phonemic awareness. It will continue by addressing the relationship between reading assessment and instruction and end by identifying ways to address the needs and different learning styles of a student. This paper will start by looking at a definition of phonics and phonemic awareness, then move onto the role that each play in learning to read, how they are related, the benefits and effective methods of teaching both.
