• Although exposure to litera-ture and level of intelligenceare important for overalldevelopment, they are lesspredictive of reading suc-cess than phonologicalawareness.

• Emphasize that phonologi-cal awareness is a betterpredictor of reading suc-cess than what childrenknow about letters, or howoften they were read to, orSES status.

WHY is it Important?WHY is it Important?

Phonological Phonological AwarenessAwareness

• Acquisition of phonological awareness is an important factor in learning to read and spell.

• This collection of skills can be taught prior to and during reading instruction.

• Phonological awareness will facilitate children’s learning of the alphabetic principle by drawing their attention to the sounds that are related to individual letters.

(a) demonstrate the concept of word by dividing spoken sentences into individual words;

(b) identify, segment, and combine syllables within spoken words such as by clapping syllables and moving manipulatives to represent syllables in words;

(c) produce rhyming words and distinguish rhyming words from non-rhyming words;

(d) identify and isolate the initial and final sound of a spoken word;

(e) blend sounds to make spoken words such as moving manipulatives to blend phonemes in a spoken word; and

(g) segment one-syllable spoken words into individual phonemes, clearly producing beginning, medial, and final sounds.

• Emphasize that teacherscan assess progress on afrequent basis using asuccess indicator.

Note: Monitoring progresswill help to modify curricu-lum and instruction, andidentify concepts withwhich a student may behaving difficulty.

• Use Overhead #11 to re-mind participants that byJanuary, about one third ofchildren in Kindergartenhave acquired at leastsome of this skill in pho-nological awareness (thisinformation is necessaryfor planning instruction).

• Remind participants thatmonitoring progress is acontinual activity.

Texas Centerfor Readingand Language Arts

• Some children will have

acquired phonological

awareness by mid-

kindergarten, but many won’t.

• For instructional planning, it’s

important to determine what

children know and to monitor

what they learn.

• Informal instruction and

assessment should be ongoing.

• Remind participants thatthere is a strong correla-tion between blending andsegmenting.
