Study Notes
Vocabulary and Phonics Concepts
- Affix: General term for prefixes and suffixes.
- Alphabetic Principle: Concept that letters represent phonemes in written words.
- Consonant Blend: Two or more consecutive consonants that retain their individual sounds (e.g., "bl" in "block").
- Consonant Digraph: Two consecutive consonants representing one phoneme (e.g., "ch," "sh").
- Vowel Digraph/Vowel Pair: Two vowels together that represent one sound (e.g., "ai," "oa").
Reading Comprehension and Strategies
- Decodable Text: Text where 80-90% of words are based on sound-symbol relationships previously taught.
- Phonemic Awareness: Includes skills like phoneme isolation, blending, segmentation, and substitution.
- Comprehension of Informational Texts: Emphasizes increased exposure and explicit teaching of strategies.
- During Reading Strategies: Techniques such as checking predictions, making inferences, and recognizing cause-and-effect relationships.
Print Concepts and Structure
- Concepts/Conventions of Print: Rules governing written language use, such as reading direction and punctuation.
- Language Structure: Organization of words into meaningful segments using grammar and syntax.
- Orthography: A writing system for representing a language.
Phonological and Phonemic Skills
- Phoneme: Smallest unit of sound in a language, combined to create words.
- Morpheme: The smallest unit of meaning in language.
- Phonological Awareness: Includes activities like rhyming and syllable counting to enhance sound recognition.
Fluency and Instructional Strategies
- Fluency: Reading smoothly and accurately with appropriate expression and intonation.
- Instructional Level: Defined as reading with 90-94% accuracy, while frustration level is below 90%.
- Emergent Readers: Focus on concepts about print and basic phonological awareness.
Vocabulary and ELL Support
- Vocabulary Domains: Tiers of vocabulary from familiar words (Tier 1) to domain-specific terminology (Tier 3).
- Comprehension Supports for ELLs: Use of nonverbal aids and explicit teaching strategies to enhance understanding.
- Phonics Support for ELLs: Highlight the different letter combinations across languages while emphasizing meaning in reading.
Writing and Communication
- Discourse: The way sentences are combined to communicate ideas effectively.
- Syntax: The arrangement and structure of words in sentences according to grammatical rules.
- Self-Monitoring: Awareness of comprehension breaks and the application of strategies to maintain understanding.
Evaluation and Assessment
- Elements to Assess: Key focus areas include emergent literacy, fluency, comprehension, and interest in reading.
- Open Response Set Up: Framework for identifying strengths and weaknesses in reading performance, supported by evidence.
Strategy Implementation Focus
- Flexible Grouping: Organizing students based on instructional needs and abilities for targeted learning.
- Before Reading Strategies: Strategies such as activating prior knowledge and utilizing text features to enhance engagement.
Generalization and Rules
- Final Y Generalizations: Understanding that "y" acts as a vowel in final positions (e.g., "merry").
- Floss Rule: One-syllable words ending in f, l, or s typically double the consonant after a vowel.
These notes summarize critical concepts and strategies essential for understanding reading, phonics, and instructional approaches within literacy education.
