I gained throughout this module was speaking comes naturally and reading does not. There are three different approaches to learning how to read. These three approaches are hands-on approach, presenting then practicing the information and showing the direct application of reading and spelling. One thing that really stuck out to me was first graders knowing 2,000 sight words at such a young age.

Segmenting is only the sounds, not the words

rich /r/ /i/ /c/ /h/

Blending is having the sound and using the sounds to create a word

/c/ /a/ /t/ = cat

Adding phoneme

/s/+ jump = jumps

1. Sentences can be broken into words

2. Sounds in the alphabet can be rearranged

3. Spoken words can get split up

# data[].attributes.body
in this module, I learned different ways to break up sounds. I also used different strategies to help break them down. I also realized how confusing the different sounds and rules can be to a little. I think incorporating tools that they can practice with on their own without a lot of teacher help is going to be very beneficial.

In this topic, I realized that it is important for students to be able to break down words into syllables from sounds. I gained some fun activates that I think would be engaging for the students to learn with.

In this topic, I learned about the common spelling patterns single constants can make. I learned fun activities for the students to play to help them learn. An easy way for them to practice this is by using their name as an example to sound out different sounds.

# data[].attributes.body
Sounds where more than one action is happening at the same time to produce a single consonant sound.

# data[].attributes.body
one of the most common is ck

black, track, hack

more than one consonant combined to form a single sound

Consonant Blend

two or three sounds make a new sound when blended together

two consonants by each other but they keep their own sound

FLag, BLack, DRess

Consonant Diagraph

combination of two consonants that form one sound

WHiSK, THiNK, CHip

# data[].attributes.body
In this topic, I learned that more than one consonant combined can form a single sound. I also learned that these play a significant role in early childhood as they help kids pronunciation.

A,E,I,O,U

Long Vowels

two vowels appeared side by side in a syllable

Short Vowel

CVC

# data[].attributes.body
After this unit, I have a better understanding of long and short vowels. Before this unit, I knew what long and short vowels were but did not know what that meant. I know why words and vowels are pronounced the way they are.

# data[].attributes.body
Closed

est-ab-lish

Open

ends with the vowel letter.

pi-lot

VCE

generally, represents long vowel sounds.

exceptions

give, have, love

R Controlled

Consonant + LE syllables

when -le appears at the end of the word

This unit really made all the light bulbs click. I have a better understanding of how words are pronounced because of syllables. This is very beneficial to me because I feel like I tend to struggle when it comes to reading words.

Morphemes are the smallest unity of meaningful parts in our language

Morphology

the study of meaningful units and how they are combined in word formation

can be categorized by both language and grammatical role

Free

a morpheme that can stand alone

Bound

morpheme that must be attached to another morpheme in order to have meaning

# data[].attributes.body
Morphology helps me better understand the meaningful parts of words by breaking words down. In my classroom, I could see morphology being beneficial to my students and me to help us read better by being able to break down words into their smallest units. I think morphology plays a crucial role in language development and literacy skills.
