Word Alert! Review Phonics Terms
p. 21-22 HO
On chart paper or white board:
• Define phonics term given
• Provide an example of the term
• During class presentations you will confirm
definitions.
What are Decoding and Encoding?
How are they similar?
How are they different?
• Discuss with elbow partners (pp. 105)
4 Key Principles of Systematic
Phonics Instruction (p. 109)
• Base instruction on what students know (Piaget & Inhelder, 1969)
• Provide systematic instruction (International Reading Association, 2003)
• Use appropriate texts.
• Embed instruction in meaningful contexts (Bear & Templeton, 1998;
Cunningham, 2004; Dahl & Scharer, 2000; Hiebert, 1999; International Reading Association, 1997; Johnston, 2001; Kane, 1999; Moustafa
& Maldonado-Colon, 1999; Wagstaff, 1997/1998)
Practice Each Generalization in Partners
• Nine Useful Consonant Generalizations (p. 106)
• Seven Vowel Generalizations (p. 108)
Principle One: Base Instruction on What Students Know
(guide students towards these…rules)
2nd Principle: Six Approaches to Teaching
Phonics Systematically (p. 109)
• Analytic phonics- see whole word/sight, then analyze lettersound /h/+ /a/ + /t/ = hat
• Synthetic phonics- convert letters to sounds (say it faster clip)
http://learn.nefec.org/login.aspx
• Phonics-through-spelling – actually write word to come up with
word
• Analogy phonics- use known word parts, like “at” in hat (sorting
words clip)
• Phonics in context- Use sound-letter knowledge w/ the context
of the reading (all 3 cueing systems)- decoding multisyllabic clip
What makes sense…What looks right…What sounds right…
• Onset and rime instruction
Phonics Scope & Sequence p. 110
K- letter knowledge and their sounds; some sight words,
onsets and rimes; short vowels.
1st- build on “K” introduce useful rules, blending, long
vowels, digraphs, and r-controlled vowels.
2nd- complete high frequency word knowledge,
generalizations, word parts (prefixes, suffixes and roots),
complex syllabication.
3rd- reinforce all the above and move into derivations.

Phonics Assessment (p. 112)
• Informal
• Checklists, surveys, word sorts
• The Phonics Mastery Survey (p. 456-458)
• HO pp. 24-29
• Checklists (p. 459)
• IRI’s- miscue analysis (comprehension)
• Spelling (RED 4942)
• Some formal tests with phonics sub-tests
• Iowa Test of Basic Skills
• Stanford Achievement Tests, Ninth Edition
• Metropolitan Achievement Test-Reading
Let’s Practice
• Phonics Mastery Survey- pp. 456-458.
• Read directions and mock the assessment to each other.
• What questions do you have about the assessment, points to
clarify, etc…
Look at Heather’s• Come up with a percentage % for each area assessed (8 total).
On the post (index) card: Dear Dr. Kelley…
A.Identify Heather’s Strengths and Weaknesses for each phonics
area.
B.What would you do to help? Identify at least one activity for
one area of weakness- reference pages from the text.
