EML 1501 ASS 5, Question 1
1.1)
Phase 1: Pre- communicative phase
Phase 2: The phonemic phase
Phase 3: The transitional phase
Phase 1: Pre- communicative phase.
During the pre- communicative or pre- phonemic, children do not have the knowledge
of letter-sound relation. Children become aware that speech can be expressed on
paper. Children do not know the spelling of words yet, because they may not know
how to spell them.
Children know they want to write a letter for example, but due to lack of being able to
spell the words they will represent their message in the form of symbols and or pictures.
The drawings in this stage will later transform into letter like symbols and lines. The
pre-communicative phase can also be defined as “make up writing.” Children will
imitate writing by inventing random letters and possibly numerals. This is the beginning
of their attempt at spelling.
Phase 2: The phonemic phase.
During this stage of spelling the child’s letter-sound relation comes into full bloom. Now
children start to use their phonological knowledge to make a decision on which
alphabet to use in spelling a word. Consonant- vowel - consonant world like: mat, pen,
bin, pot, fun become easier for them to learn and read.
They will become able to sound out the different parts of a word,
although they may not spell the word correctly, for example ‘bag’ will be written as ‘beg’,
due to the a and e vowel sound very similar. This development spelling is referred to
as ‘invented spelling’.
Other examples include words like:
Et (eat)
Fiv (five)
