2 ND NRP D IMENSION : E XPLICIT S YSTEMATIC P HONICS Phonics is
different than phonemic awareness Some phonemic awareness is
necessary to teach phonics Phonics is the direct, sequential
teaching of the relationship between the sounds of spoken language
(sounds=phonemes) and the symbols of written language (alphabet,
letters=graphemes)
Slide 21
P HONICS L EARNING S EQUENCE : S OME COMPONENTS CAN BE TAUGHT
TOGETHER Phonological Awareness and Phonemic Awareness Alphabetic
Principal Alphabet Consonants Short vowels, CVC, CCVCC
(C=consonant, V=vowel) What words fit the patterns? Long vowels,
CVCe, CVVC, CCVCC What words fit the patterns? Consonant blends and
digraphs ex. Consonant blends- bl ack, gr een; consonant digraphs-
shut,child R controlled vowels ex. C ar Vowel dipthongs (ex. t oy
), digraphs (ex. ch air ) Multisyllabic words words with more than
1 syllabl e

P RE -K INDERGARTEN : P HONOLOGICAL A WARENESS AND P HONEMIC A
WARENESS Begin to map sounds to letter Hear beginning/common sounds
Attend to rhyme, rhythm and repetition in spoken language Which
word starts like your name?
Slide 23
K INDERGARTEN : P HONOLOGICAL A WARENESS, P HONEMIC A WARENESS,
ALPHABET, AND P HONICS Segment and count phonemes (subunits of
sounds = c/a/t) in words Blend phonemes and onset-rime/spelling
patterns (onsets are initial consonants in syllables and spelling
patterns are the vowel(s) and letters after it in a syllable= c/at)
Recognize and produce rhyming words Recognize sounds as same or
different Letter sound correspondences- Associate sounds to symbols
(letters) Phonics - Decode (pronounce) and spell CVC words
