Knowledge and Skills Statement

Developing and sustaining foundational language skills: listening, speaking, reading, writing, and thinking--beginning reading and writing. The student develops word structure knowledge through phonological awareness, print concepts, phonics, and morphology to communicate, decode, and spell.

Pídales a los estudiantes que identifiquen las sílabas que forman las palabras. Los estudiantes pueden demostrar oralmente la separación entre las sílabas o identificar las sílabas por medio de una acción, como aplaudir, usar los dedos o mover fichas.

Ejemplos:

  • ¿Qué sílabas tiene la palabra casa? ca-sa
  • ¿Qué sílabas tiene la palabra gato? ga-to
  • ¿Qué sílabas tiene la palabra miel? miel
  • ¿Qué sílabas tiene la palabra blanco? blan-co
  • ¿Qué sílabas tiene la palabra pelota? pe-lo-ta
Identifying syllables involves students identifying the number of syllables in a word spoken aloud. For example, if the student hears backpack, the student should be able to say there are two syllables in the word.
Phonological awareness is the ability to detect and manipulate the sound structures of spoken language, including recognizing differently sized sound parts (e.g., phrases, words, syllables, phonemes) and manipulating those parts (i.e., blend, segment, delete, add, and change).
a unit of oral language in which a vowel sound is heard; it may or may not contain a consonant sound
Habilidad para reconocer y pronunciar los sonidos ligados a las letras que lleva a poder identificar y pronunciar sílabas y posteriormente palabras.

Summary: Phonological awareness involves being able to recognize and manipulate the sounds within words. This skill is a foundation for understanding the alphabetic principle and reading success. There are several ways to effectively teach phonological awareness to prepare early readers, including: 1) teaching students to recognize and manipulate the sounds of speech, 2) teaching students letter-sound relations, and 3) teaching students to manipulate letter-sounds in print using word-building activities.
