LETRS Unit 1 Sessions 1-8 Assessment/Quizzes. LETRS Unit 1 - Session 1. Phonics - The study of the relationships between letters and the sounds they represent; also used to describe code based instruction Phonemic Awareness - The conscious awareness of the individual speech sounds (consonants and vowels) in spike syllables and the ability to manipulate those sounds syllable - a unit of pronunciation having one vowel sound, with or without surrounding consonants, forming the whole or a part of a word orthography - A writing system for representing language. morphophonemic - Deep alphabetic writing system organized by both sound -symbol correspondences and morphology Morpheme - in language, the smallest unit that carries meaning, it may be a single sound (/s/ plural), one syllable (suffix -ful), or multiple syllables (prefix inter-) cognate - A word in one language that shares a common ancestor and common meanings with a word in another language metalinguistic awareness - The ability to think about and reflect in reflect on the structure of language itself Decoding - The ability to translate a word from print to speech, usually by employing knowledge of sound -symbol correspondences Simple View of Reading - Word recognition X Language comprehension = reading comprehension LETRS Unit 1 - Session 1 (2) Phonics - relationship between letters and sounds. Code based instruction. Phonemic Awareness - awareness of individual speech sounds (consonants and vowels) in spoken syllables and the ability to consciously manipulate those sounds. Alphabetic Writing is less than years old. - 5,000 90% of all spoken languages have no - written form, let alone an alphabet that represents the separate sounds of speech. Syllable - the unit of pronunciation that is organized around a vowel; it may or may not have a consonant after the vowel. Egyptians invented the first alphabet in - 2,000 BCE Phoenician alphabet was developed in and was the granfather of our alphabet 19 of 26 letters can be traced. - 1,000 BCE Modern American English spelling was settled in 1828 with - Webster's Dictionary Orthograpy - a writing system for representing language Morphonphonemic - alphabetic writing principle organized by both sound -symbol correspondences and morphology. Morpheme - the smallest meaningful unit of language; it may be a word or a part of word; it may be a single sound, one syllable or multiple syllables To read an alphabetic alphabet a person must - mentally link the alphabetic symbols with the single speech sounds or phonemes that they represent. All alphabets require - speech sound (phoneme) awareness by the reader. Shallow or Transparent Alphabetic Orthography - correspondences in the alphabetic writing system are regular and predictable. One sound represented by one symbol or letter. Deep or Opague Alphabetic Orthography - the spelling system represens morphemes (meaningful parts) as well as speech sounds. Morphophonemic contains both phonemes and morphemes. Advantages of Alphabetic Writing - permits any word to be read or written in a language with a small set of symbols. A limited number of symbols can be combined to create the entire language, even new words. Language can be written and read by anyone who can match the symbols to the sounds they represent. Disadvantages of Alphabetic Writing - People are wired to process speech sounds. The phoneme -that s ound that a letter represents - is not self evident, natural, or consciously accessible understanding for humans. Metalinguistic Awareness - the ability think about and reflect on the structure of language itself. The invention of the alphabet was an achievement. The Simple View of Reading - Word Recognition x Language Comprehension = Reading Comprehension Word Recognition - The accurate and fast retrieval of decoded word forms, is essential for the development of reading comprehension. Language comprehension - listening comprehension or the linguistic processes involved in the comprehension of oral language. Decoding - the ability to translate a word from print to speech, usually by employing knowledge of sound -symbol correspondences. LETRS Unit 1 Session 2 Semantics - The study of word and phrase meanings and relationships Morphology - The study of meaningful units in a language and how the units are combined in word formation Discourse - Organizational conventions used in longer segments of oral or written language Phonology - The rule system within a language by which phonemes can be sequenced, combined, and pronounced to make words Syntax - The system of rules governing permissible word order in sentences Orthography - A writing system for representing language and the rules that govern it Pragmatics - The system of rules and conventions for using language and related gestures in a social context Example of Phonology - No English word begins with the sound /ng/; the sound /p/ and /k/ are never adjacent in the same syllable. Example of Orthography - Every English word ending in /v/ is spelled with -ve; the letter x is never doubled. Example of Morphology - Nat- is a root. Nature is a non=in; natural is an adjective; naturalist is a noun; naturally is an adverb. Example of Semantics - The word rank has multiple meanings. The words order and sequence have similar meanings. Example of Syntax - "Our district recruits new teachers" is a sentence; " New teachers our district recruits" is not a sentence.
