Today’s Focus
1. Goals: What outcomes do we want for our students in our state, district, and schools?
2. Knowledge: What do we know and what guidance can we gain from scientifically based reading research?
3. Progress Monitoring Assessment: How are we doing? What is our current level of performance as a school? As a grade? As a class? As an individual student?
4. Outcome Assessment: How far do we need to go to reach our goals and outcomes?
5. Core Instruction: What are the critical components that need to be in place to reach our goals?
6. Differentiated Instruction: What more do we need to do and what instructional adjustments need to be made?

What is Phonological Awareness?What is Phonological Awareness?
The ability to hear and manipulate the sound structure of language. This is an encompassing term that involves working with the sounds of language at the word, syllable, and phoneme (sound) level.

DefinitionsDefinitions
Phoneme: A phoneme is a speech sound. It is the smallest unit of language and has no inherent meaning.
Phonological awareness: The ability to hear and manipulate the sound structure of language. This is an encompassing term that involves working with the sounds of language at the word, syllable, and phoneme level.
Phonemic awareness: The ability to hear and manipulate the sounds in spoken words, and the understanding that spoken words and syllables are made up of sequences of speech sounds (Yopp, 1992, cited in Yopp, 1995). Phonemic awareness involves hearing language at the phoneme level.
Phonics: The process of using the code (sound-symbol relationships) to recognize words.
![Page 11: Enhancing the Core: Phonological Awareness](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062317/5868d2881a28abd97c8b7b79/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)

The best early predictor of reading difficulty in kindergarten or first grade is the inability to segment words and syllables into constituent sound units (phonemic awareness) (Lyon, 1995).

Phonological awareness is necessary but not sufficient for reading acquisition.
Phonological awareness is teachable and promoted by attention to instructional variables. (Smith, Simmons, & Kame'enui, 1998)
“Reading and phonemic awareness are mutually reinforcing:
Phonemic awareness is necessary for reading, and reading, in turn, improves phonemic awareness
still further.” (Shaywitz, 2003, pg. 55)

The ability to hear and manipulate phonemes plays a causal role in the acquisition of beginning reading skills (Smith, Simmons, & Kame'enui, 1998).
There is considerable evidence that the primary difference between good and poor readers lies in the good reader’s phonological processing ability.
The effects of training phonological awareness and learning to read are mutually supportive.

PA teaches students to attend to sounds. It primes the connection of sound to print.
PA gives students a way to approach reading new words.
PA helps students understand the alphabetic principle, that letters in words are systematically represented by sounds.

Why Phonemic Awareness is Why Phonemic Awareness is DifficultDifficult
There are 26 letters in the English language.
Though the number of phonemes vary across
sources, there are approximately 40 phonemes.
Sounds are represented in 250 different spellings
(e.g., /f/ as in ph, f, gh, ff).
Phonemes are coarticulated, thus logical “sound
units” are not readily apparent and must be taught.
No “white spaces” between letters, syllables, or words

Making Adequate Progress in PAMaking Adequate Progress in PA
To evaluate how students are responding to instruction, each DIBELS measure has an established goal.
DIBELS uses three levels to describe learner performance:
Established Emerging
Deficit
![Page 29: Enhancing the Core: Phonological Awareness](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062317/5868d2881a28abd97c8b7b79/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
Simmons, Harn, & Kame'enui © 2003 29
DIBELS Three LevelsDIBELS Three Levels
Established: Student has met or exceeded the benchmark value for the measure. Implication: Current instructional program is meeting the
child's needs. Emerging: Student is at-risk for not meeting the next
critical benchmark. Implication: Modify instructional program and monitor
performance more often (1-2 x month) Deficit: Student is at significant risk of not meeting
the next critical benchmark without significant changes to the instructional program. Implication: Modify instructional program significantly and
monitor performance more often (2-3 x month)
![Page 30: Enhancing the Core: Phonological Awareness](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062317/5868d2881a28abd97c8b7b79/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
Simmons, Harn, & Kame'enui © 2003 30
DIBELS are sensitive to changes in student performance Short-duration: Each measure is brief and
permits frequent monitoring without detracting from instructional time.
Sensitive: Each measure is designed to detect small units of growth.
Repeatable: Each measure has 20 alternate forms for monitoring progress.

Simmons, Harn, & Kame'enui © 2003 31
Each measure is designed to assess accuracy and fluency
Accuracy: How well does the child perform the skill?
Fluency: How easily or quickly does the child perform the skill?
The best way to gather this information is to use the student booklets and examine responses to the task.

Performance on recognition items (Which picture begins with…)
Are they consistent? Performance on production items (“What sound does

How easily and quickly does the child perform the skill? Time necessary for accomplishing the measure is

When analyzing student performance, look for patterns of performance: Patterns Correct?
Specific sounds correct (e.g. stop vs. continuous, blends, length).
Pattern of Errors? Specific sounds incorrect (e.g., stop vs.
continuous), vowels, blends. Make sure to rule out articulation, hearing
difficulties, or having a bad minute!

Research indicates that materials that follow the following principles enhance learning for all students:
1. Progress from easier activities to more difficult (rhyming, sound matching, blending, segmenting, etc.).
2. Schedule more instructional time on segmenting then other skills.
3. Start with larger linguistic units (i.e., words and syllables) and proceed to smaller linguistic units (i.e., phonemes).
4. Begin with short words (2-3 phonemes: at, mud, run).
(Smith, Simmons, & Kame’enui, 1998)

5. Focus first on initial (sat), then final (sat), and lastly the medial sound (sat) in words.
6. Introduce continuous sounds (e.g., m, r, s) before stop sounds (t, b, k).
7. Provide brief instructional sessions. Significant gains in phonemic awareness are often made in 15-20 minutes of daily instruction.

Blending Sounds Example: “I am going to say the sounds in
a word and show you how to put the sounds together. Listen to the sounds and how I blend them to make a word: /mmm/ /aaa/ /p/: map. I’ll do another one: /sss/ /iii/ /t/: sit.”

Multiple models and examples should be provided before asking students to display the skill.
Instructional Objective: Teaching First SoundExample: Teacher lays down 2 pictures that each
have the first sound of /m/ and says “My turn to say the first sound in man, /mmm/. The first sound in man is /mmm/. Everyone, say the first sound in man, /mmm/.”
Example: Teacher lays down 2 pictures that each begin with /m/ and says “Who can tell me the first sound in these pictures?”

Instructional Objective: Initial Sound
Example: We are going to listen for the /sss/ sound like the /sss/ in sun, sip, and Sal. For which sound will we listen? (pause). Yes, /sss/. I am going to say some words, if it begins with /sss/ say /sss/. Listen for /sss/, moon (pause), sit (pause), slide (pause), cat (pause), top (pause), soap (pause), man (pause).
Example: We are going to listen for the /s/ sound like in sun, sip, and Sal. Which sound? (pause). Yes, /s/. I am going to say some words, if it begins with /s/, raise your hand. Students don’t produce the sound!
