By following a systematic sequence for teaching blending and segmenting activities to students, the teacher can increase the difficulty or phonemes being manipulated. The article discusses a helpful hint of modeling to introduce the skills and guided practice, as students develop mastery of segmenting and blending. In my current class we play a game called 'Rhyme Time' where we play with words and the phonemes. One section of the game is where I break up a compound word into the two words and say them separately, like "Rain" and "Bow". Then my students have to respond with the compound word, "Rainbow". The suggestion in this article is a similar idea. But it even gives strategies to help students who have mastered segmenting and blending become engaged through fun challenging activities.   

IN THE ARTICLE  A HELPFUL HINT  WAS THE ACTIVITY BELOW:

Begin with compound words (e.g., /snow/ -- /ball/). First have students repeat the components of a compound word slowly, and then put them together to form one word; As a next step, ask students to quickly repeat a compound word, and then to break the word into its component parts by repeating it slowly.  

IN THE ARTICLE A CHALLENGE ACTIVITY FOR THOSE WHO HAVE MASTERED THIS SKILL IS:

Sound omission games, where they remove sounds from words in order to create new words. For example, removing /sun/ from suntan leaves /tan/, while subtracting the /t/ from tray leaves ray. Begin by asking students to take out initial sounds or syllables, then have them remove ending sounds/syllables, and finally, ask students to pull out middle sounds/syllables.

There are 26 letters in the alphabet but we have 43 sounds in the English language, therefore we must have combinations of letters that create specific sounds like "SH" "TH".]]> 2021-04-26 01:55:31 UTC https://padlet.com/mishmallard/39sfxar1z15ores4/wish/1457488649 Heggerty Phonics Lesson Example-Kindergarten mishmallard https://padlet.com/mishmallard/39sfxar1z15ores4/wish/1457561340 2021-04-26 02:27:23 UTC https://padlet.com/mishmallard/39sfxar1z15ores4/wish/1457561340 ELL: 5 Components of Reading Instruction mishmallard https://padlet.com/mishmallard/39sfxar1z15ores4/wish/1457597403 2021-04-26 02:43:05 UTC https://padlet.com/mishmallard/39sfxar1z15ores4/wish/1457597403 mishmallard https://padlet.com/mishmallard/39sfxar1z15ores4/wish/1457598665 This article provides recommendations and considerations for instruction of ELLs within each of the Reading First components.

So offering activities that can show a correlation between their native language and English can be useful.

ELLs cannot develop phonological awareness in English until they are familiar with the sounds of English.

This means that before explicit instruction in phonological awareness begins, children should have extensive experiences with fun and appealing songs, poems, chants, and read-alouds that will allow them to hear and reproduce the sound patterns of English.

 Problem with "word recognition"
  • decoding
  • phonics
  • phonemic awareness
  • word attack skills
Direct instruction appears the most effective approach for improving word recognition skills in students with learning disabilities.

Students with learning disabilities can learn to read through memorizing sight words. These students are able to learn to isolate skills like, letters sounds and some phonemic awareness skills. But the challenges for these students are in blending sounds and combining isolated sounds. Providing them with intensive amounts of practice and repetition with blending sounds and combining isolated sounds, can help them gain mastery over this ability. Providing specific more explicit instruction for these students with learning disabilities can help them understand these concepts to ultimately help them becoming a successful reader.  
Dr. Jill Allow's shows a style of interaction with these students that can help model the proper way to demonstrate new words/sounds or phonemic awareness activity, then have them try it with you and finally have student try it on their own. ]]> 2021-04-26 03:53:20 UTC https://padlet.com/mishmallard/39sfxar1z15ores4/wish/1457743430 mishmallard https://padlet.com/mishmallard/39sfxar1z15ores4/wish/1457818655 ELL and Reading]]> 2021-04-26 04:38:20 UTC https://padlet.com/mishmallard/39sfxar1z15ores4/wish/1457818655 Syllable Practice and Alliteration Activities mishmallard https://padlet.com/mishmallard/39sfxar1z15ores4/wish/1457840298 2021-04-26 04:48:47 UTC https://padlet.com/mishmallard/39sfxar1z15ores4/wish/1457840298 mishmallard https://padlet.com/mishmallard/39sfxar1z15ores4/wish/1457846538 This video features a reading coach discussing phonological awareness in the early years, including modeled scenarios of word knowledge (metalinguistic awareness) development through syllable; rhyme and alliteration activities.
