The Five Pillars of Reading by Meg Goehring https://padlet.com/meggoehring/15vl3c658o023d8w How the five pillars can be reinforced during reading and writing instruction. en-us 2021-06-03 01:44:02 UTC 2021-06-03 03:26:13 UTC hello@padlet.com Phonemic Awareness meggoehring https://padlet.com/meggoehring/15vl3c658o023d8w/wish/1581249835 "The ability to hear, identify, manipulate, and substitute phonemes-the smallest units of sound that can differentiate meaning-into spoken words" (Wierman, 2018)

Research based strategy: Teach spelling patterns and word families (Anderson, 2009)

Phonemic awareness supports reading by teaching the building blocks of words. Writing is supported much in the same way. Writers must first learn the the sounds before progressing to connecting sounds with letters.]]> 2021-06-03 01:55:33 UTC https://padlet.com/meggoehring/15vl3c658o023d8w/wish/1581249835 Phonics meggoehring https://padlet.com/meggoehring/15vl3c658o023d8w/wish/1581250917 "The ability to understand that there is a predictable relationship between phonemes (sounds) and graphemes (the letters that represent those sounds in written language) in order to associate written letter with the sounds of spoken language" (Wierman, 2018)

Research based strategy: Interactive read-alouds (Anderson, 2009)

Phonics supports reading by connecting the sounds students have learned with phonemic awareness to print. Writing is supported by teaching students which letters make the sounds they would like to write.]]> 2021-06-03 01:56:05 UTC https://padlet.com/meggoehring/15vl3c658o023d8w/wish/1581250917 Fluency meggoehring https://padlet.com/meggoehring/15vl3c658o023d8w/wish/1581251366 "The ability to read text accurately, quickly, and expressively, either to oneself or aloud" (Wierman, 2018)

Research based strategy: Read aloud (Anderson, 2009)

Fluency supports reading because fluent readers can focus their attention elsewhere, such as on comprehension (Reading Rockets, n.d.). Fluency supports writing because they can again focus on meaning and they have the ability to develop increased spelling abilities.]]> 2021-06-03 01:56:18 UTC https://padlet.com/meggoehring/15vl3c658o023d8w/wish/1581251366 Vocabulary meggoehring https://padlet.com/meggoehring/15vl3c658o023d8w/wish/1581251688
"The growing, stored compilation of words that students understand and use in their conversation (oral vocabulary) and recognize in print (reading vocabulary)" (Wierman, 2018)

Research based strategy: Word Walls (Anderson, 2009)

Vocabulary supports reading comprehension and helps students to become better writers with increasingly complex and interesting sentences and ideas.]]> 2021-06-03 01:56:28 UTC https://padlet.com/meggoehring/15vl3c658o023d8w/wish/1581251688 Comprehension meggoehring https://padlet.com/meggoehring/15vl3c658o023d8w/wish/1581252023 "The ability to understand, remember, and make meaning of what has been read-this is the purpose for reading" (Wierman, 2018)

Research based strategy: KWL chart (Anderson, 2009)

Comprehension supports reading because it allows students to make connections to what they read. Comprehension can be supported by writing because students spend additional time thinking and communicating that writing over oral discussion (Emig, 1977)
