It will also cover technologies that can help with each area. en-us 2021-04-18 16:01:05 UTC 2021-04-18 18:15:43 UTC hello@padlet.com https://padlet.net/icons/png/1f4da.png asnyd020 https://padlet.com/asnyd020/kt2rzqptc80dwen7/wish/1430147883 Alphabetics refers the idea that in order to learn how to read in English knowledge of how the letters in the alphabet relate to the sounds of the language. It also requires being aware of the sounds that make up spoken words, also known as phonemics. Knowledge of phonics is also required. This is knowing how the sounds of spoken words relate to letters. ]]> 2021-04-18 16:12:33 UTC https://padlet.com/asnyd020/kt2rzqptc80dwen7/wish/1430147883 asnyd020 https://padlet.com/asnyd020/kt2rzqptc80dwen7/wish/1430153052 2021-04-18 16:15:34 UTC https://padlet.com/asnyd020/kt2rzqptc80dwen7/wish/1430153052 asnyd020 https://padlet.com/asnyd020/kt2rzqptc80dwen7/wish/1430174233 2021-04-18 16:28:21 UTC https://padlet.com/asnyd020/kt2rzqptc80dwen7/wish/1430174233 asnyd020 https://padlet.com/asnyd020/kt2rzqptc80dwen7/wish/1430177428

Children with autism tend to overgeneralize the rules of phonemics which makes causes them to take longer to understand. 

Some children with autism have an intense fascination with letters or numbers, hyperlexia. This can cause them to just focus on the letters and not their meaning.

It also teaches the sounds of the letters along with helping with letter identification. 
I think this app would be useful because it allows students to engage with the letters in a way that works for them. If they learn best by doing it themselves then they can trace the letters or if they like music they can sing the alphabet. I also think it would be useful since the app progresses with the student. ]]> 2021-04-18 16:32:55 UTC https://padlet.com/asnyd020/kt2rzqptc80dwen7/wish/1430182079 asnyd020 https://padlet.com/asnyd020/kt2rzqptc80dwen7/wish/1430188605 This app allows the student to decorate and color a letter of their choosing. As they are decorating the letter they will hear the phonetic sounds of that letter. Then when they are done they will get to watch a video of a word that features that letter. I think this app would be useful since I think it will engage the students since they can pick the letter and then decorate it. ]]> 2021-04-18 16:37:10 UTC https://padlet.com/asnyd020/kt2rzqptc80dwen7/wish/1430188605 asnyd020 https://padlet.com/asnyd020/kt2rzqptc80dwen7/wish/1430227387 This app focuses on everything from letters, phonics, spelling to sight words. It has lessons for letter recognition, letter sounds, and word components. I think this app would be useful for those students that have mastered letter recognition are ready to start moving on to letter sounds and words. ]]> 2021-04-18 17:00:23 UTC https://padlet.com/asnyd020/kt2rzqptc80dwen7/wish/1430227387 asnyd020 https://padlet.com/asnyd020/kt2rzqptc80dwen7/wish/1430254423 Vocabulary means that the student knows the words that are needed to communicate. This could be through speaking, listening, reading or writing. Since readers must know what the words they are reading means it helps to have a large oral vocabulary. ]]> 2021-04-18 17:17:22 UTC https://padlet.com/asnyd020/kt2rzqptc80dwen7/wish/1430254423 asnyd020 https://padlet.com/asnyd020/kt2rzqptc80dwen7/wish/1430257457 2021-04-18 17:19:05 UTC https://padlet.com/asnyd020/kt2rzqptc80dwen7/wish/1430257457 asnyd020 https://padlet.com/asnyd020/kt2rzqptc80dwen7/wish/1430258027

As mentioned before students with autism can suffer from hyperlexia. Hyperlexia can cause the early and spontaneous ability to read. Hyperlexia can be deceptive because it seems like the student can read but they do not understand what they are reading. 

Students with autism have a limited oral language and exposure due their poor socialization skills. So often times students only have vocabulary about their area of interest.

It teaches the words by having your children play games with the objects. I think this app will be useful, especially students with hyperlexia, since they can learn the meaning of the words they may already know. I also think it will engage the students since they can play games. ]]> 2021-04-18 17:25:46 UTC https://padlet.com/asnyd020/kt2rzqptc80dwen7/wish/1430268589 asnyd020 https://padlet.com/asnyd020/kt2rzqptc80dwen7/wish/1430274410 This app allows students to build sentences that describe a provided picture.

It helps the students understand the meaning of words instead of just memorizing new words. It teaches the meaning by having the students play games. I think that this app is useful because it teaches the meaning of the word instead of just having the students memorize words. Students should also engage well with this app since they can play games. ]]> 2021-04-18 17:31:01 UTC https://padlet.com/asnyd020/kt2rzqptc80dwen7/wish/1430277857 asnyd020 https://padlet.com/asnyd020/kt2rzqptc80dwen7/wish/1430295889 Text comprehension is the ability to think intentionally about what you are reading so they can form a meaning of the text by relating what they read to what they already know. Text comprehension is the most dynamic and complex of all reading skills. ]]> 2021-04-18 17:40:32 UTC https://padlet.com/asnyd020/kt2rzqptc80dwen7/wish/1430295889 asnyd020 https://padlet.com/asnyd020/kt2rzqptc80dwen7/wish/1430299323 2021-04-18 17:42:22 UTC https://padlet.com/asnyd020/kt2rzqptc80dwen7/wish/1430299323 asnyd020 https://padlet.com/asnyd020/kt2rzqptc80dwen7/wish/1430301088

Children with autism often have a hard time with shifting attention which is needed to connect words and sentences

Children with autism also have a limited theory of mind which can make it difficult from them understand the perspectives or emotions of the author or characters.

When a student finishes a book they take a quiz to see how much the understood. Raz Kids also provides children with background knowledge on the topics in the library. I think that this website and app are useful because parents and teachers can look at the quizzes to see how the student is doing. I also think it is useful because it provides the children with the background knowledge that they need. Having the correct background knowledge can make text comprehension easier. ]]> 2021-04-18 17:47:19 UTC https://padlet.com/asnyd020/kt2rzqptc80dwen7/wish/1430308114 asnyd020 https://padlet.com/asnyd020/kt2rzqptc80dwen7/wish/1430314572 This website provides children with articles on various topics.

As previously mentioned student with autism may suffer from hyperlexia which can make it hard from them to understand the meaning of a word. In order to read fluently figuring out the meaning of the word has to be automatic. 

Like mentioned before students with autism have a decreased theory of mind which can make if difficult for them to understand descriptive text about emotions or other's perspectives. Therefore, this limits their ability to read fluently.
