    Study Notes

    Oral Language Development

    • Oral language holds significant weight in predicting a child's success in early reading and comprehension.
    • The two forms of language are expressive (producing language) and receptive (understanding language).

    • According to the social interactionist theory, the zone of proximal development flourishes with joint tasks involving a learner and expert.
    • Children begin using complex sentences to form questions around ages 3-4.
    • Early and intensive intervention is crucial for literacy learning in children with underdeveloped language and English language learners.
    • Mean length of utterance (MLU) measures the length of oral statements.
    • Comprehension and collaboration are part of the Speaking and Listening category in the Common Core Standards.
    • The phoneme segmentation for "wake" is /w/, /ä/, /ke/.

    • Debates and creating print or televised commercials encourage the development of heuristic language.
    • Receptive language requires the receiver to decode spoken or written communication.
    • Joint productive activity enhances language learning through the context of new knowledge.
    • Emergent literacy suggests that literacy begins at birth and continues to develop throughout life.

    Early Literacy Skills

    • Alphabet knowledge refers to knowing the names and sounds of printed letters.

    • Phonological awareness involves stretching out a spoken word to hear each sound.
    • The Phoneme Segmenting Test requires students to identify sounds in words.
    • A kindergarten student should be able to name 30 letters within a minute on the DIBELS Letter Naming Fluency (LNF) test to demonstrate fluency.
    • The three functions of language are conceptual, interpersonal, and factual.

    Concepts About Print

    • Teaching about the rules and conventions of written language is referred to as teaching the technical aspects of print.
    • Concepts about print are best learned through examining and engaging with the text alongside a teacher.
    • Environmental print refers to print that is easily accessible in children’s learning environments.
    • Shared reading experiences with large print books are an effective way to teach concepts about print.

    Phonemic Awareness

    • Phoneme identity involves recognizing the same sound in various words.
    • Blending and segmenting skills have the greatest impact on reading acquisition in kindergarten.
    • The goal of Response to Intervention (RTI) for struggling readers is to accelerate their learning.
    • Basic Interpersonal Communication Skills (BICS) and Cognitive Academic Language Proficiency (CALP) are the two types of language proficiency.
    • A 50/50 ratio of expository books to storybooks should be read to students to expand their content knowledge.
    • Print referencing is when a teacher points out print concepts to a student.

    • The One-Minute Reading Test assesses reading rate and accuracy.
    • Multidimensional Fluency Scale offers comprehensive and reliable information about reading volume and expression.
    • Explicit instruction refers to direct, clear teaching.
    • Scaffolded silent reading involves students using a genre wheel to pick independent-level books of interest.
    • Exposing students to a broad range of genres and text types is known as wide oral reading..
