Download Phonological Skills and Learning to Read Book in PDF, ePub and Kindle
This book sets out to integrate recent exciting research on the precursors of reading and early reading strategies adopted by children in the classroom. It aims to develop a theory about why early phonological skills are crucial in learning to read, and shows how phonological knowledge about rhymes and other units of sound helps children learn about letter sequences when beginning to be taught to read. The authors begin by contrasting theories which suggest that children's phonological awareness is a result of the experience of learning to read and those that suggest that phonological awareness precedes, and is a causal determinant of, reading. The authors argue for a version of the second kind of theory and show that children are aware of speech units, called onset and rime, before they learn to read and spell. An important part of the argument is that children make analogies and inferences about these letter sequences in order to read and write new words.

Download Explorations in the Feasibility of Introducing Phonological Awareness and Early Reading Instruction Into Japanese Elementary School English Education Book in PDF, ePub and Kindle
This thesis is an exploratory study that examines the potentiality of teaching phonological awareness, which is a precursor to early reading development in English, in conjunction with letter and simple word reading instruction in Japanese elementary school English education. It is an attempt to answer a question of how letters could be introduced into it without placing too much burden on children. Comprehensive literature review argues that learning to read English requires multiple levels of phonological awareness which Japanese children seem unlikely to develop fully in their L1 acquisition, and that a more enhanced outcome of instruction would be achieved if phonological awareness is taught together with letters and applied for early reading. Two main tools are adopted in this study. The questionnaire survey for 398 elementary school teachers elucidates not only the current elementary school practices but also their beliefs and principles in terms of letter and early reading instruction, both of which are essential for understanding the field but very few studies have investigated: Many teachers present children with letters in English classes but the focused instruction of letters or early reading tends to be avoided considering possible demand for children or due to the teachers' lack of knowledge and skills for teaching them. Furthermore, from the discussion of the both qualitative observation and qualitative assessment data obtained through the intervention in a Japanese elementary school, the following is revealed: (1) The children show L1-specific characteristics in phonological processing of English such as adding a vowel after a consonant or segmenting after a consonant-vowel combination. (2) The difficulty of phonological awareness tasks for them was slightly different from that for English-speaking counterparts. (3) The children could develop the higher-level phonological awareness skills such as phoneme deletion and substitution through the instruction and have favourable attitude toward it. Thus, this study demonstrated the teachability of phonological awareness and its learnability for Japanese children as well as its importance in English reading acquisition. Finally, some implications not only for classroom practices but also for teacher training are drawn suggesting the necessity of future introduction of it with letters and early reading into Japanese elementary school English classrooms.

Abstract: Abstract This research attempts to identify the significance and development of phonological awareness in learning to read English for Chinese children. Data were gathered from observation of subject, Carmen, over four-year study of her phonological development in learning to read English text independently in regards to the age relevant to subject. The report concludes that there is a scope for consideration of more varied approaches in learning to read English text. However, I think the most promising and remarkable strategy in learning to read English is the essential training of phonics instruction backed by the exposure in the relative culture of the same language. 5 DOI: 10.5353/th_b2952343 Subjects: Reading - Phonetic method - China - Hong Kong English langauge - Study and teaching (Elementary) - China - Hong Kong School children - China - Hong Kong - Language

This resource presents assessment and instructional activities that are evidence based, practical, and easy to implement. This comprehensive text demonstrates how to link assessment and instruction practices for every component of literacy learning and helps teachers become informed decision makers about purposeful literacy instruction. Addressing the Early Reading First areas of phonological awareness, print knowledge, and language development, the book also covers parent involvement, integrated curriculum, and suggestions for working with children with special needs and English language learners. Using vignettes of four children representing diverse backgrounds, the authors weave together theory and practice and describe how instructional strategies are implemented in classroom settings. Each chapter contains figures and graphic organizers and includes sections on instructional strategies, assessment, and diversity

Abstract: Abstract of dissertation entitled "Phonological Awareness and Reading Ability in Japanese Children" submitted by Tomoko Yoshida for the degree of Master of Arts at The University of Hong Kong in June 2005. Abstract The present investigation sought to measure the correlation between phonological awareness in Japanese and English words and reading. A very high significant correlation was found between Japanese Kana pseudo reading and vowel detection in Kana items. The participants were Japanese children whose mean age was 101.86 months. The experimental tasks included a rhyme detection task, an oddity task, and a phoneme isolation task. Each task consisted of both English and Japanese stimuli. Reading tasks were administered after all the experimental tasks. The participants made mental reference to a Kana chart during the phonological awareness tasks. The findings lead us to believe that the Kana chart was the tool through which Japanese children exhibited their phonological awareness. Evidence shows that phonological awareness is strongly related to learning to read an alphabetic script, such as English. The relationship between phonological awareness and reading ability in Japanese children was investigated in this study. The key to studying phonological awareness in Japanese children seems to lie in understanding the internal structure of Kana, a Japanese phonetic writing system. Romaji, an alphabetic writing subset in Japanese, and Kana are linked in the form of a Kana chart. Japanese children consciously or unconsciously become aware of the internal structure of Kana by being familiar with the Kana chart. Thus, it is predicted that Japanese children acquire a primal level of phonological awareness, such as onset-rhyme, through the Kana chart.

For many years, the development of theories about the way children learn to read and write was dominated by studies of English-speaking populations. As we have learned more about the way that children learn to read and write other scripts - whether they have less regularity in their grapheme-phoneme correspondences or do not make use of alphabetic symbols at all - it has become clear that many of the difficulties that confront children learning to read and write English specifically are less evident, or even non-existent, in other populations. At the same time, some aspects of learning to read and write are very similar across scripts. The unique cross-linguistic perspective offered in this book, including chapters on Japanese, Greek and the Scandinavian languages as well as English, shows how the processes of learning to read and spell are affected by the characteristics of the writing system that children are learning to master.
