Cueing Systems of Reading and Writing
  • Graphophonic
  • sound/symbol correspondences and phonemic
    awareness
  • Syntactic
  • parts of speech and sentence structure
  • Semantic
  • word meanings
  • Pragmatic
  • contexts, purposes, history, sociocultural
    meanings and traditions
  • Visual
  • iconic images, pictures, charts, graphs
  • Discursive
  • ways of knowing, doing, reading, and writing

How Cueing Systems WorkExample
  • He stood perfectly still, alert to the sounds of
    the woods.
  • His attention focused on the sounds of his
    approaching prey.
  • As the delicate footsteps approached, saliva
    dripped from his sharp teeth.
  • Soon he was able to see the little girl and her
    red-hooded jacket.

  • Physiological structures, by contrast, operate
    more efficiently when they are well within the
    extreme limits set by external mass transport.
  • Animals, for example, do not metabolize to the
    point of collapse between meals, or between
    breaths. In ecological communities, behavioral
    mechanisms may mediate mass and energy flow for
    example, in the division of nutrient flow among
    species-specific tropic niches.
  • Such behavioral mediation may cushion the
    physiochemical boundaries of community stability
    and thus appear to be conceptually independent of
    such boundaries.
  • However, behavior specialization simply allows
    more matter to be entrained in the cycles of the
    biological community, and thus allows the domain
    (in ecological hyperspace) occupied by living
    matter to fit more efficiently within whatever
    physicochemical limitations (for example, of
    temperature, isolation, or chemical potential)
    may bound a habitable hypervolume.
