Week 2 Flashcards
what is phonological awareness?
understanding the structure of words and manipulating the component sounds of words.
put the following levels of phonological awareness in order from simplest to most complex
1. hears oral rhymes and alliteration.
2. hears syllables in spoken words
3. hears words in spoken sentences
4. hears indiviudal phonemes in words
5. hears onsets and rimes in words
A tapping task and counting task are used for?
find out syllable awareness before reading instruction.
these tasks are used for?
test onset of rime awareness
define phoneme awareness
being able to divide spoken words into the smallest sound elements
define a phoneme
what is orthographic transparency?
mapping letter-sound
studies show which two interventions will increase phonological awareness?
- grouping by rhyme, onset vowel, phonemes
- plastic letters sound awareness
combined work best.
NO, you need more groups to prevent bias. EG
what is the core problem in dyslexia?
phonological awareness?
can you name three types of tasks for researching dyslexia?
why would an experimenter compare older control children with younger dyslectic children?
to match the deficit in reading experience kids with dyslexia have.
name two cross-cultural differences in dyslexia?
what is the difference between opaque and transparent languages?
transparent= letter/combinatie hebben meestal zelfde klank
opaque=letter/combinaties hebben verschillende klanken.
what neurlogical differences in dyslectic children do studies show?
readers with dyslexia use less brain areas for reading
which are the three suggested numerical systems in the brain? and what are their functions?
this an example of
weber’s law=our ability to make physical discriminations is ratio sensitive
counting consists of which two core principles?
what where the results in the following study?
the hypothesis could not be rejected.
at what age do we see a milestone shift counting abilities in young children? How is this shown in an experimental design?
children where asked to give a big bird two dinisaurs to play with.
