Teachers may dismiss reading and writing difficulties as attention problems or the student not being developmentally ready for certain tasks, so the diagnosis is missed or delayed.

Just a few that you might see in the classroom are struggles with the following types of tasks:
  • Identifying the first sound in a word
  • Blending sounds into words or segmenting words into sounds
  • Pronouncing multisyllabic words like “specific”
  • Rhyming
  • Rote memory tasks like remembering songs or the days of the week
  • Correctly repeating words back to you after you say them
  • Not representing all sounds in a word when spelling it

These difficulties typically result from a deficit in the phonological component of language that is often unexpected in relation to other cognitive abilities and the provision of effective classroom instruction. Secondary consequences may include problems in reading comprehension and reduced reading experience that can impede the growth of vocabulary and background knowledge.

With understanding of phonological awareness it leads to: 
- syllable awareness 
- onset - rime awareness 
- phoneme awareness 
Phonological awareness is an overarching, superordinate term referencing to a student's awareness of units of sounds that comprise our spoken language.

Phonics is mapping of letters to sounds and analyzing the structure of how a word is spelled. This is a fundamental component of reading instruction for all children, not just those with reading difficulties. It is the lifeline for those students who do not readily interpret the alphabetic principle, and assists those good readers with improving both their fluency and spelling skills. 
- Knowledge of the names of the letters of the alphabet, both accurately and fluently
- Mapping single consonant sounds with their most common letter representations.

Fluency is the ability to gain deep meaning from what you read while using a
limited amount of time. 
*Something to consider is students may need fluency work at the subword, word, phrase, or sentence levels as well as practice at connected text levels

Reading comprehension is the ability to understand what you read at a “deep” level.
* Something to consider is oral language and vocabulary development are crucial support skills to reading comprehension. Read-alouds to young children, continuing until they can decode grade-level materials, assist in exposing students to academic language structures. ]]> 2023-02-02 02:41:39 UTC https://padlet.com/phanso12g/dyslexiainstudents/wish/2465499403 phanso12g https://padlet.com/phanso12g/dyslexiainstudents/wish/2470341137 (2015, Dyslexia Buddy Network)]]> 2023-02-06 16:11:53 UTC https://padlet.com/phanso12g/dyslexiainstudents/wish/2470341137 phanso12g https://padlet.com/phanso12g/dyslexiainstudents/wish/2470345315 Teachers should test for phonemic awareness.

Dyslexia affects 1 in 10 individuals, many of whom remain undiagnosed and receive little or no intervention services.  For some individuals who have never been diagnosed, dyslexia is a hidden disability which may result in underemployment, difficulty navigating academic environments, difficulty on the job, and reduced self-confidence.  Even those who have been diagnosed are likely to struggle with reading or writing in some aspects of their lives.  Dyslexia is a specific reading disorder and does not reflect low intelligence.  There are many bright and creative individuals with dyslexia who never learn to read, write, and/or spell at a level consistent with their intellectual ability. Do you think you may have dyslexia? Please complete the brief 10 question self-assessment tool below.

These poor readers are distinguished from dyslexic poor readers because they can read words accurately and quickly and they can spell. Their problems are caused by disorders of social reasoning, abstract verbal reasoning, or language comprehension.
