Phonemic awareness is the understanding that words can be broken apart into individual sounds (phonemes). Phonemic awareness skills then, involve focusing on and manipulating phonemes in spoken language. It is important to note that phonemic awareness is an auditory skill; children do not need to know letter shapes and sounds (phonics) in order to develop basic phonemic awareness. As children develop an understanding of the sounds that letter symbols make, phonemic awareness and phonics skills are often practiced simultaneously.

Phonemic awareness falls under the umbrella of phonological awareness, a broader term that refers to an awareness of all the parts of a word, not just the individual phonemes. Phonological awareness includes skills like rhyming and dividing words into syllables, while phonemic awareness includes skills like blending and segmenting the individual sounds in words.

Another option is to record the Heggerty Phonemic Awareness lessons for your students, so they can engage in the lesson during asynchronous instruction. We know students love to see and hear their teacher when they are away from the classroom and the phonemic awareness lessons can be part of those connection opportunities with your students. If you will be recording videos for your students (yes, we give you permission to record and publish videos privately for the purpose remote learning) we have provided tips for recording below:

The Heggerty Phonemic Awareness lessons follow the phonological awareness continuum. All of our lessons begin with compound words, then move to syllables, onset-rime and then phonemes. If you encounter one of these transitions during remote learning, we suggest providing a model for students first following an I Do, You Do format. Explicitly tell students the units of language you will be working with and model the tasks for the first lesson of the week.

That's a complicated sounding term, but it's meaning is simple: the ability to hear, recognize, and play with the sounds in spoken language. Phonological awareness is really a group of skills that include a child's ability to:

Strong phonemic awareness is one of the strongest predictors of later reading success. Children who struggle with reading, including kids with dyslexia, often have trouble with phonemic awareness, but with the right kind of instruction they can be successful.

This post is focusing on printed word recognition. Word recognition requires phoneme awareness (sound awareness) and phonics (alphabet awareness- which symbols link to those sounds).

The purpose of teaching phonemic awareness is to ensure children can hear all separable sounds within words, and that they be able to hold these sounds in memory and do things with them (like separate them or delete them). If a student can fully segment words with proficiency (that is, he or she can break words into all of their separate sounds with ease), then everything that need be accomplished with a phonemic awareness program has been accomplished and you can move on. The issue in evaluating and selecting a program is will it provide enough quality support that students should be able to master that set of skills.

Towards that end, one thing I would look for in a phonemic awareness program would be the inclusion of phonological awareness instruction. Phonemic awareness is part of a larger collection of auditory skills dealing with language sounds (phonological awareness). Phonemic awareness, the awareness of the individual phonemes or the smallest meaningful sounds in the language, is the most sophisticated of these skills. Before children develop these sophisticated phonemic skills, they go through a continuum of skills development that allows them to first to isolate or separate words, syllables, rhymes and simple beginning sounds (onsets). Some young children struggle to learn to hear individual sounds; a program that includes instruction in these precursor skills can allow these kids to make faster progress (and teachers can skip this part of the program for kids who have already learned these earlier developing skills). The inclusion of lessons aimed at these grosser and earlier-developing skills is a good fall-back position.

The sequence of instruction of an effective program should be (1) separation of words and syllables, (2) rhyming, (3) separation of onsets and rimes (e.g., b-ig, c-an); (4) the segmentation and blending of the individual sounds. Letter names should be taught throughout this sequence, and it is reasonable to mix phonemic awareness with phonics by teaching students the sounds associated with the various letters.

Recently, in the education world, there has been a lot of talk about phoneme awareness and its importance in reading instruction - with good reason! As classroom reading instruction shifts, finding ways to bridge the research to instructional practices is crucial. But with this comes a need to understand what the research means for our work and our students.

There is widespread agreement that phoneme awareness skills such as perceiving sounds in speech, isolating sounds, and blending and segmenting words are the foundation for learning to read and write. A National Reading Panel in-depth review of 52 phonemic awareness articles found that explicitly teaching phonemic awareness directly impacts children's reading significantly more than instruction without any attention to phonemic awareness. This evidence was so clear that they recommended that explicit phonemic awareness instruction be a part of classroom reading instruction beginning in preschool.

Phonological awareness and phonemic awareness are parts of the larger phonological processing term, which "includes many aspects of speech and language perception and production" (Scarborough & Brady, 2002). Under this larger umbrella of phonological processing, we know that phonological awareness provides the underpinnings for reading and writing. Here is a simplified breakdown of phonological awareness.

Phoneme awareness is a part of the phonological awareness umbrella which refers to the awareness of and consciously thinking of individual speech sounds, or phonemes, in spoken language. As students move to formal reading instruction, their knowledge of phonemes in connection to graphemes is necessary in acquiring the alphabetic principle. This is because phonemic awareness lays the foundational pieces upon which letter-sound knowledge can be built. It is the ability to hear, identify, and manipulate individual sounds and then connect those sounds to the letter representations. Bridging this knowledge of sound to letter is crucial for unlocking the written code, and our students find success when instruction is systematically and explicitly taught and practiced.

Phonemic awareness teaches students to hear and manipulate the smallest units of sound and understand that spoken words are made up of sequences of speech sounds. In previous instructional practices we may have isolated phonological awareness tasks from that of reading and writing instruction, but the research is clear that integrating phoneme awareness instruction with letter correspondences and handwriting aids in reading and spelling development.

Why? This integration, or linkage, of speech to print through a multimodal approach connects the phoneme to the grapheme through the orthographic mapping process and is a key component of structured literacy lessons. When we explicitly teach these linkages, we are helping students gain awareness of the alphabetic principle and lay the foundation for reading and spelling.

We can support phonemic awareness with students by bringing awareness to the articulatory features of individual phonemes or speech sounds as we link sounds to print. Articulatory features refers to the use of voice, placement and manner of our tongue, lips, and mouth as we make individual speech sounds. Read more about articulatory features here.

Connecting the letter representations, or graphemes, right from the beginning within our phonological awareness instruction may be new. Many programs have kept these two things separate, but the National Reading Panel showed that connecting letters to sounds (graphophonemic connections) during phonemic awareness tasks benefited students in reading and spelling. In addition, as we teach articulatory features, we connect this awareness to the speech sound and the letter representations, or the phoneme-grapheme correspondences. The more that we connect the research about learning to read to our instructional practices, we see ways in which we can refine our instruction and approach.

For this reason, one way I have bridged the gap between my phonemic awareness instruction and phonics instruction is with the use of sound-letter tiles that highlight the articulatory features. I use these tiles with my students as we complete word chains/ladders, spelling, and more! I wanted to provide my students with another opportunity to bridge their knowledge of sounds to print - and they love these! The mouth cards are a useful scaffold for those students who need additional support and practice. 041b061a72
