Q

the difference of Whole Language versus
Instruction in Explicit Skills

A

-Whole language advocates believe that reading and writing can be learned as naturally as listening and speaking

-There was never any controlled research supporting this premise

-There is currently a growing awareness of the importance of explicit skill(phonemic) instruction (helps all children)

Q

What is the Whole Language Approach to Literacy?

A

Natural Learning: Advocates believe that reading and writing can be learned in the same way as listening and speaking—through immersion and exposure to language in context.

Focus on Meaning: Emphasis is on understanding and using language for communication, rather than focusing on individual components like phonics

Q

Why was the Whole Language Approach criticized?

A

Lack of Controlled Research: There was no scientific evidence or controlled research to support the effectiveness of the Whole Language approach in teaching reading and writing.

Inconsistent Outcomes: While some students thrived, many others struggled without explicit instruction in phonemic awareness and decoding skills.

25
Why should SLPs address literacy deficits in children with language disorders?
SLPs are well-equipped to provide intervention for children with impaired literacy skills. Comorbidity rates between reading disabilities and Specific Language Impairment (SLI) range from 40% to 75%, making it crucial for SLPs to assess and treat possible literacy deficits in children with language disorders.
26
How are reading and writing related to oral language skills?
Oral Language as a Foundation: The better a child's oral language (speaking and listening) skills, the more likely they are to acquire literacy skills in an easy and efficient manner. Direct Relationship: Reading and writing skills are now believed to be directly connected to oral language abilities.
27
Why are SLPs well-equipped to support literacy development?
Connection Between Oral Language and Literacy: SLPs are skilled in supporting oral language, which is critical for reading and writing development. Intervention for Impaired Literacy: SLPs can provide effective intervention for children with impaired literacy skills, as their expertise in language development translates well to literacy instruction.
28
What is the comorbidity rate between reading disabilities and Specific Language Impairment (SLI)whats the percent
High Comorbidity: Research shows that comorbidity rates between reading disabilities and SLI range from 40% to 75%. Impact on Literacy: Children with language disorders often struggle with reading, highlighting the need for targeted intervention.
29
Why should SLPs assess and treat literacy deficits in children with language disorders
Identifying Literacy Deficits: Since reading and writing are closely linked to oral language skills, SLPs should assess possible literacy deficits in children with language disorders. Targeted Intervention: Addressing literacy challenges early can help children with language disorders develop the necessary skills for reading and writing success.
30
ASHA Position Statement: Roles & Responsibilitie of SLP, 6 factors
* Prevent written language problems * Identify children at risk for literacy impairment * Assess reading and writing * Provide intervention and document outcomes * Provide assistance to teachers, parents, and students * Advocate for effective literacy practices, and advance the knowledge base
31
What is the range of comorbidity rates between reading disabilities and specific language impairment (SLI)? percentage
Comorbidity rates between reading disabilities and specific language impairment (SLI) range from 40% to 75%
32
The components of reading (ASHA Practice Portal) (3)
1.Word recognition—the ability to identify words when reading, either through word decoding or sight word 2.Reading fluency—the ability to recognize and read words within a text with accuracy, using appropriate intonation, rhythm, and speed 3.Reading comprehension—the ability to understand the meaning of written text Comprehension includes vocabulary knowledge, using morphological
33
Three levels at which children should be assessed for reading and writing skills
1.The emergent level (preschool) 2. The early elementary level (K – 3rd grade) 3. The later levels (Grade 4 and above)
34
Signs and symptoms of written language disorders
-Distinguishing between literary genres * Identifying purposes of text * Explaining affixes * Explaining words with multiple meanings * Explaining figurative language
35
assessing literacy at the emergent level, what are some factors they know how to do
children growing up in a literacy-enriched environment know: * How to hold a book right-side up * How to turn the pages * That print is read in English from left to right, from the top down * That the “squiggles” on the page say the same thing, no matter who is reading them -Some children may naturally pick up some sight words
36
What kinds of books are good for infants
Read to children from infancy – this is the “Ummm. . .tastes good!” stage of literacy, so durable books that are safe for baby to mouth are most appropriate: also less likely to get damaged! * books that represent “real life,” and that are repetitive, alliterative(same sounds), and rhyming
37
Choose books that represent
“real life,” and that are repetitive, alliterative(same sounds), and rhyming
38
Considerations given to children with special needs
metal age of 6 and a half years -All children have the “right to read!” * Assuming a child will not be able to read ASSURES that he or she will not! * Make sure children with special needs receive exposure to print and encouragement for emergent literacy
39
Print referencing techniques
Just tracking print with your finger will call children’s attention to print * Other more direct techniques include asking questions about print, such as. . .
40
questions to ask to children
Can you find the first word on this page? How about the last one? * Show me a word on this page * Count the words on this page with me * Where’s the letter M (or any letter) on this page? * Are there any letters on this page that are in your name, too? * Where do you think the word pop is
41
how to reinforce and deliver corrective feedback
Give warm praise for correct answers and help the child with “incorrect” answers
42
Assessment of literacy at the early elementary level
- Assess letter identification -Assess early reading skills * “Sounding out” words * Assess fluency quantitatively * Words per Minute – WPM * Check comprehension
43
A quantitative measurement for reading fluency
quantative measure, having them read for a number of minutes then divide for the number of minutes they read count words divide by 3 minutes, comprehension is ask questions
44
Assessment of literacy at the later elementary level
* literary genres * purposes of text * Explaining affixes * Explaining words with multiple meanings * Explaining figurative language
45
What is Phonological Awareness?
Phonological awareness is an “umbrella” term that encompasses a sensitivity to any size unit of sound
46
What is Phonemic awareness
is one type of phonologic awareness. It has to do with understanding that words are made of individual sound -Children who have good phonemic awareness can manipulate the sounds of their language
47
why is phonemic and phonological awareness linked
Research has shown a link between good phonological awareness, particularly phonemic awareness, and future literacy Children who do not demonstrate good phonological and phonemic awareness in preschool and kindergarten are at risk for reading disorders
48
Findings of the National Reading Panel,phonemic awareness
Phonemic awareness: * Is a teachable skill * Helps children learn to read and spell * Instruction is more effective when children are presented with the corresponding letters * Instruction is more effective when limited to only one or two types of phoneme manipulation, rather than several types * Instruction should take no more than 20 hours of classroom time over a school year
49
Three early developing phonological awareness skills (2-4 years)
* Rhyming (some researchers think as early as 2 years of age!) * Syllable segmentation (“Clap it out!) * Detecting alliteration (“Brown bear, brown bear!
50
How we should encourage development of phonological awareness
READ! Books that rhyme, that have alliteration, that have silly sounds * PAIR the sounds with the alphabetic letters * GIVE direct instruction * SING! * PLAY AND HAVE FUN!
51
Phonological awareness skills 3-year-old children should be able to demonstrate
-rhyme -syllable structure (“Clap it out!”) -alliteration (e.g., Brown Bear, Brown Bear. . .)
52
Phonemic awareness skills children in the first grade should be able to demonstrate
Isolate a phoneme within a word * Recognize the same sounds in different words * Segment phonemes * Substitute phonemes
53
What research says about the amount of attention children give to print when adults read to them
, eye-gaze studies confirm that children spend very little time looking at print - when adults do not use specific behaviors, like questioning about print and pointing to print, that elicit attention to print during read-alouds .
54
The domains of print knowledge and cues adults can use to address them during storybook reading (4)
(1) Print as an object of meaning (2) Book organization and print conventions (3) Alphabet knowledge (4) Concept of word
55
Ways to incorporate literacy into traditional speech and language therapy
Present alphabetic letters – Won’t hurt! Might help! * Pair pictured stimuli with written words * Use printed words as cues * Present written stimuli at more advanced levels * Use carefully chosen storybooks as stimuli * Use guided reading * Use dialogic reading * Use print referencing techniques
