1Stages of Reading Development
2Early literacy or pre-reading
Early literacy learnings. Awareness of print.
Phonological awareness. Reads common signs and
labels. Can write ones name.
Below grade 1 reading level
Stage 1
3Decoding
Letter-sound correspondences. Knowledge of the
alphabetic principle and skill in its use.
Identifies about 1,000 of the most common words
in the oral language. Can read very simple texts.
Stage 2
Reading grade levels 1 and beginning 2
4Fluency
Integrates knowledge and skills acquired in
Stages 1 and 2. Relies on context and meaning as
well as on decoding (phonics for identifying new
words). Reads with greater fluency. By the end of
Stage 2, can recognize about 3,000 familiar words
and derivatives.
Stage 3
Reading levels 2-3.
5Uses reading for learning
Can use reading as a tool for learning new
information, ideas, attitudes, and values. Growth
in background knowledge, meaning vocabulary, and
cognitive abilities.
Stage 4
Reading grade levels 4-8.
6Multiple viewpoints
Ability to read widely a broad range of complex
materials, expository and narrative, from a
variety of viewpoints and at a variety of levels
of comprehension inferential and critical as
well as literal.
Stage 5
Reading grade levels 9-12.
7Construction and reconstruction
Reading for ones own needs and purposes
(professional, personal, civic) to integrate
ones knowledge with that of others and to create
new knowledge.
Stage 6
College and beyond.
8The Reading Process
- Reading must be fluent.
- Reading is a constructive process.
- Reading is strategic.
- Reading requires motivation.
- Reading is a lifelong pursuit.
9Dyslexia
- People with this baffling disorder find it
extremely difficult to recognize letters and
words and to interpret information that is
presented in print form
10General Agreement on 4 Points
Dyslexia
- Dyslexia is probably due to a congenital
neurological condition. - Dyslexic problems persist into adolescence and
adulthood. - Dyslexia has perceptual, cognitive, and language
dimensions. - Dyslexia leads to difficulty in many areas of
life as the individual matures.
11The Language Experience Method
- This is a well-accepted method that builds on
- the students knowledge
- the students language base
- and links the different forms of language
listening, speaking, reading writing
12The Language Experience Method
- The method uses the students own experiences
and language as raw material. It is a very
effective method of showing children that they
CAN think, and read and learn.
13Word-Recognition Strategies
- Sight words
- Phonics
- Context clues
- Structural analysis
- Combining word-recognition strategies
14Concepts of Reading Comprehension
- Reading comprehension depends on what the reader
brings to the written material. - Reading comprehension is a language process
- Reading comprehension is a thinking process
- Reading comprehension requires active interaction
with the text
15a fish ate a rock. the fish
said, I ate a rock.
a cow ate the fish. the cow
said, I ate a fish. And now I
feel sick.
16Emergent Literacy and Writing
- Encourages early writing
- Children use invented spelling
- Children explore the alphabetic properties of
writing - Children develop concepts about print
17Emergent Literacy
- Oral language proficiency
- Concepts about print
- Alphabet knowledge
- Phonological awareness
- Letter-sound correspondence
- Beginning reading vocabulary
18Cloze Passage
- This is a book ____learning disabilities, a
problem _____impedes learning for _____,
adolescents, and adults, affecting ____ schooling
and adjustment to ____. There is growing concern
____ children and youth with ____ disabilities
who have extreme ____ in learning academic and
____ skills, despite their mental ____ for doing
so.
19Interactive Elements in Reading Comprehension
- The Reader. Each reader comes to a reading
selection with some knowledge and interests that
affect what this reader is willing and able to
read. - The Text. Text refers to the written language or
the printed information. The clarity and
organization of the text will affect the readers
ability to make sense of it.
20Interactive Elements
- The Context. The reading situation or
environment also affects the reading process. In
a testing situation, for example, intense anxiety
could prevent a reader from comprehending
material that he or she could easily read in a
less threatening setting.
21Theories of How Children Acquire Language
- Behavioral theories
- Innatist theories
- Cognitive theories
- Social theories
22Whole-Language Views
- Use integrated language system oral language,
reading, writing - Both oral and written languages are acquired
through natural usage - Use only authentic literature
23Whole-Language Views
- Teach writing early
- Provide abundant opportunities for writing
- Avoid instruction on separate nonmeaningful parts
of language or use or exercises and drills
24Manuscript Writing
- Handwriting instruction usually begins with
manuscript writing in kindergarten, where
children begin to write letters of the alphabet.
Manuscript writing usually continues in first,
second, and third grade.
25Cursive Writing
- In cursive writing (sometimes called script) the
letters are connected. The transfer to cursive
writing is typically made somewhere in the third
grade, although schools teach cursive writing as
late as fifth grade.
26DNealian Writing System
- Another handwriting form is the DNealian writing
system (Thurber Jordan, 1981). This system
helps students make the transition to cursive
writing more easily. The DNealian system is a
simplified cursive writing style in which
manuscript letters have the basic forms of the
corresponding cursive letters.
27The Left-handed Student
- Left-handed people encounter a special
handwriting problem because their natural
tendency is to write from right to left on the
page. In writing from left to right,
left-handers have difficulty seeing what they
have written.
28Linguistic Approach to Spelling
The linguistic approach to spelling is based on
the contention that the spelling of American
English is sufficiently rule covered to warrant
an instructional method that stresses
phonological, morphological, and syntactic rules
or word patterns. This might also be called a
phonics or word-family approach to spelling since
it selects words to teach phonics
generalizations, structural analysis, or
linguistic patterns.
29Word-Frequency Approach to Spelling
In the word-frequency approach to spelling
instruction, words for spelling instruction are
chosen on the basis of frequency of use rather
than phonological patterns. The criteria for word
selection are frequency of use, permanency, and
utility. A core of spelling words that are most
frequently used in writing was determined through
extensive investigations of the writing of
children and adults.
