Components of the Reading Process
  • Word Identification
  • Comprehension

Types of reading disabilities
LLD (Syntactic, Semantic, Pragmatic
Deficits)
DYSLEXIA (Decoding Deficits)
ADHD (Metacognitive Deficits)

Definitions
Phoneme the smallest unit that serves to
distinguish one utterance from another in a
language (as the /b/ of bat and the /m/ of mat)
Phonemic Awareness an awareness of the sound
structure of ones language at the single phoneme
level involves the ability to segment, blend,
and manipulate those sounds
Phonics a teaching approach that gives attention
to the application of letter-sound
correspondences for reading and spelling
Orthography The total writing system of a
language also refers to the letter patterns
5
Processes Involved in Word Identification/
Spelling
  • Phonological Awareness
  • Rhyming
  • Blending
  • Segmenting
  • Manipulating

Why is Phonemic Awareness Important?
  • A childs level of phonemic awareness on
    entering school is widely held to be the
    strongest predictor of the success he or she will
    experience learning to read. (Adams and Bruck,
    1995)

However, without direct instructional support,
phonemic awareness eludes roughly 25 of middle
class first graders and substantially more of
those who come from less literacy-rich
backgrounds. (Adams, 1990)

10
Processes Involved in Word Identification/
Spelling
  • Phonological Awareness
  • Orthographic Processing
  • Recognizing letter patterns that make up whole
    words or parts of words.

11
First Grader Across the Year (Adams, 1990)
12
Four Types of Words in English Orthography
  • Regular for reading and spelling (follows
    unambiguous sound/symbol relationships)

Examples dog, sprint
  • Regular for reading but not for spelling
    (unambiguous for reading but ambiguous for
    spelling)

Examples boat (could be bote for spelling)
sail (could be sale for spelling)
13
Four Types of Words in English Orthography
(contd)
3. Rule/generalization based
Examples planning (follows one syllable
doubling rule) stretch (follows the final
tch generalization)
4. Irregular (part of word does not follow
sound/symbol correspondence relationships)
Examples beauty (only eau is irregular)
friend (only ie is irregular)

National Research Council Report (NRC), 1998
Firm Conclusion from Recent Preventive
Researchsummarized by Torgesen, NEJC, 1999)
1. Instructional approaches that are more
phonemically explicit have the strongest impact
on the reading growth of children at-risk for
reading disabilities.
2. Intensive preventive intervention can bring
the average word reading skills of children
at-risk for reading disabilities solidly into the
average range.
3. In all studies reported thus far, a
substantial proportion of at-risk children have
remained relatively impaired in word reading
ability following the intervention.

Bridging between Phonemic Awareness and Phonics
20
Sound-Symbol Correspondence Is
The ability to produce the sound corresponding
to a letter or letter combination.
(Texas Center for Reading and Language Arts, 1998)
21
Techniques for Teaching Sound-Symbol
Correspondence
  • Key Words
  • Story/Picture Associations
  • Mouth Placement Cues
  • Multi-sensory Techniques

22
Bridging between Phonemic Awareness and Phonics
Multi-sensory activities that incorporate both
Phonemic Awareness and Phonics Elkonin and ROAST
23
Say It And Move It-Elkonin TechniquePhonological
Segmentation
  • To train phonological segmentation and careful
    monitoring of sequence and exact sound/symbol
    correspondence for encoding and decoding.
  • student has a series of markers (colored blocks,
    pennies, paper clips)
  • teacher says a word
  • student repeats the word
  • student segments the word into sounds (phonemes)
    while moving one marker down to a segmented line
    or series of boxes for each sound in the word
    (consonant digraphs and vowel combinations are
    considered one sound while consonant blends are
    separated)"silent e" can be coded with a special
    marker
  • student can then write the word if appropriate

24
Segmentation (Elkonin)
/t/
/s/
/i/
sit
25
Segmentation (Elkonin)
/t/

/i/
sit
26
Elkonin ContDecoding
  • Teacher constructs word or word part with letter
    tiles or plastic letters
  • student moves letter tiles or plastic letters
    while pronouncing the sound of each grapheme
  • student blends sounds to decode the word or word
    part

As students progress, it may be sufficient for
them to touch each letter as they say the sound.
27
Bridge to Orthography
28
The Six Syllable Types
  • closed notclosed in by a consonant vowel
    makes its short sound
  • open noends in a vowel vowel makes its long
    sound
  • silent e noteends in a vowel consonant e
    vowel makes its long sound

29
The Six Syllable Types (contd)
  • vowel combination nailthe two vowels together
    make a sound
  • r controlled birdcontains a vowel plus r
    vowel sound is changed
  • consonant-l-e ta/bleat the end of a word

31
Strategies for Reading Multisyllable Words
  • Rules for Syllable Divisionbased in the
    phonological system
  • Structural Analysisbased in the morphological
    system

32
Strategy for Reading Multisyllable Words
  • Rules for Syllable Division
  • Apply to two syllable and some three-syllable
    words (e.g. bas/ket po/ta/to)
  • There are Three Main Syllable Division Patterns
  • VC/CV hel/met
  • V/CV la/bor
  • VC/V tim/id

33
Divide and Conquer
34
Strategies for Reading Multisyllable Words
  • Rules for Syllable Division
  • Structural Analysis
  • Apply to three-syllable words

35
Definition of Structural Analysis
Structural Analysis is the study of the
morphological structure of words that includes
prefixes, stems and suffixes to enhance word
identification and meaning.
36
Why is structural analysis important?
  • allows students to recognize a finite number of
    word parts to aid in pronunciation of
    multi-syllabic words
  • can be linked to vocabulary work involving
    stems and affixes

Automaticity/Fluency
  Automaticity accuracy and rate   Single
Word Level effortless identification of words
Fluency automaticity (accuracy and rate) plus
rhythm/prosody/ syntactic chunking for
comprehensiondeveloping an anticipatory set
(movement through text)
Text Level coordination of automatic word
recognition with appropriate phrasing and
expression for comprehension

50 wpm 2 Gr. 85 - 100 wpm 3-8 Gr.
100 - 180 wpm GORT-3 5th Gr. SS of 100 for
fluency, 137-150 wpm (Torgeson, Rashotte
Alexander, 2001) 9-12 Gr. 200 wpm -
Silent rates improve 10-20 wpm/year
Counting number and length of pauses.
Rating the prosodic quality.

Developing Fluency
52
General Strategies for Teaching Fluency
Selection of Text reader should be able to
decode text With 90 - 95 accuracy and not
pause on too many words.
(Adams, 1990)
Systematic Practice structured and sequential
fluency practice at all levels.
53
General Strategies for Teaching Fluency (contd.)
Use a marker or pencil reader should use a
marker to aid their focus and in the flow of
their reading.
Silent Reading prereading of text silently
allows students to review text and practice any
difficult words.
Develop Anticipatory Set set the stage by
activating prior knowledge and reviewing what
might be happening help students predict text
content (Wood, Flowers, Grigorenko, 2001)
54
Contrasting Approaches to Fluency Instruction
  • GuidedRepeated Reading
  • -(NRP, 2000)

Speeded Processing -(Breznitz, 2006)
55
Text-Level Repeated Reading
  • Student reads aloud a passage several times until
    desired rate of reading is achieved (wpm).
  • Student reads aloud another passage with same
  • level of difficulty until desired rate is
    again achieved (wpm).

3. Results are graphed to document fluency gains
and provide motivation.
56
Chunking/Scooping Modifications of Repeated
Readings
Chunking or scooping under phrases is an
additional clinical technique that can be
employed with repeated readingsadds motor
component.

61
Phrasing through Signal Words
62
Introductory activities
Group signal words by function e.g., places to
go (tell where) over the hill around the
house under the tree Then find these kinds of
words in sentences, first through listening then
reading.
From Based on Alice Ansara in Never Too Late to
Read, Ann Cashwell Tuley
63
Listening Activities
  • What are the signal words in these sentences
    telling you?
  • Instead of buying a pickup truck, he bought a
    van.
  • Since he was leaving for Peru, she decided to
    buy a ticket for Paris.
  • I like Joan but I like Peter more.

From Based on Alice Ansara in Never Too Late to
Read, Ann Cashwell Tuley
64
Listening Activities (cont.)
  • Finish these phrases
  • He wanted to buy the Brooklyn Bridge, but . . .
  • Without his help, . . .
  • Throughout the night, . . .
  • As a result of his decision, . . .

From Never Too Late to Read, Ann Cashwell Tuley
65
Objective 7Signal Words in Sentences
  • The boy skips in front of his home.
  • 2. The pig drank the water after he woke up.
  • 3. Jed mowed the lawn and planted the
    flowers.
  • 4. Dan meets his sister next to the flagpole
    every day.

66
Computer Assisted Instruction and Fluency
Intervention
CAI is particularly well suited to deliver
instruction in the area of fluency.
67
Sample CAI Programs
  • Guided Repeated Readings
  • Read Naturally (focus on paragraph level fluency
    with comprehensionrepeated oral reading)

68
Contrasting Approaches to Fluency Instruction
Speeded Processing -(Breznitz, 2006)
  • GuidedRepeated Reading
  • -(NRP, 2000)

69
Speeded Processing
  • Student reads a sentence or paragraph silently
    and answers a comprehension question to determine
    current rate where high accuracy in
    comprehension is achieved
  • Text disappears at rate determined by practice
    selections

3. Results are monitored speed at which text
disappears increases or decreases based on
student response
70
Sample CAI Programs (cont.)
  • Speeded Processing
  • Reading Acceleration (focus on sentence level
    fluency with comprehensionspeeded text silent
    reading)research version
  • Reading Plus (focus on paragraph level fluency
    with comprehensionspeeded text silent reading)

71
Theoretical Issues to consider
  • Single word vs. text level
  • Sentence level vs. paragraph level
  • Silent reading vs. oral reading
