Checklist
The

and supervised student teaching. The following checklist
covers the primary knowledge and skill areas that you
will be conversant with by the conclusion of the seminar.
1.
Language - Instruction will provide a thorough
understanding of the phonemic and graphemic structure
of an alphabetically based language, English, and its
significance for teaching decoding and encoding.
2.
Reading Research - How Children Learn to Read,
Summary of Research, "Beginning to Read: Thinking
and Learning About Print." Marilyn Jager
Adams,
University of Illinois Reading Research Center.
3.
Recognizing Children with Reading Disabilities
- Signs and symptoms, appropriate testing and intervention.
4.
Language Inventory - Assessing language for development
of a strategy of implementation and delivery of appropriate
reading instruction.
5.
Phonemes - Ability to recall and correctly pronounce
the principal sounds associated with the primary phonemes
of spoken English.
6.
Graphemes - Ability to recall and recognize the
primary and secondary spellings (graphemes) and their
corresponding phonemes.
7.
Blends/Clusters - Correct pronunciation of the
blends, clusters and consonant - le syllables contained
in the phoneme/grapheme organizational chart.
8.
Syllables - Teachers will know -
(a)
Seven kinds of syllables and how they govern the use
of sounds and symbols
(b) Five different syllable division word patterns
(c) Basic accent (stress rules)
(d) Schwa concept
(e) Syllable segmentation and blending
9.

ff-ll-ss-zz rules
(b) ck-ge-dge-tch rules

(h) Finger spelling
(i) Non-phonetic ("red" or "sight") words
10.
Affixes - You will have an understanding of the
nature and importance of teaching affixes. (Systematic
treatment of this subject is not within the scope of
this seminar. Affixes are covered with advanced students,
and instruction in how to teach affixes is treated in
a special workshop).
11.
Reading Comprehension - Recognition of comprehension
deficiencies and improvement strategies.
12.
Teaching Techniques
(a)
Drill work - You will be able to carry out a visual,
auditory and blending drill and know what to do when

Action - You will have the basis to develop an
action plan by which you can begin to apply the decoding/encoding
knowledge and skills gained in this seminar in both
one-on-one and classroom situations. You can be assured
that those students who need this kind of approach will
be significantly benefited. You can also look forward
to continuing professional education, which will better
equip you to use this general approach with students
ready for more advanced linguistics.
