The present article considers the contrast between conceptions of reading as a natural and as an unnatural act, relying on
the simple view of reading as a theoretical framework (Gough and Tunmer 1986). According to the simple view, reading comprehension
is a product of both listening comprehension and decoding. Here it is argued that the comprehension aspect of reading depends
on those same—natural—forces that govern acquisition of spoken language, whereas decoding depends on explicit tutelage, with
little evidence that children will induce the cipher from simple exposure to written words and their pronunciations (sight-word
instruction). Rejecting both sight-word and phonics instruction as inadequate in and of themselves, evidence is reviewed suggesting
that successful readers require explicit awareness of the phonological structure of spoken words, which can and should be
taught in kindergarten, prior to formal reading instruction. Beyond this point, reading success depends on a modicum of phonics
instruction together with extensive practice with reading itself. 相似文献

Phonological processing problems have been consideredcritical in explaining developmental readingdisability. Reading disabled children were comparedwith two matched reading-level normal control groupson indicators of phonological processing. The readingdisabled children had lower nonword readingperformance than the phonics taught controls. However, performance was equivalent to that of thecontrols without phonics teaching. Therefore anonword reading deficit was not in itself diagnosticof developmental reading disability. The readingdisabled children and the non-phonics control groupwho exhibited lower nonword reading did not differfrom the phonics taught control group in phonemeawareness, nor in magnitude of the word regularityeffect. Nevertheless, within all groups thosechildren with higher phonemic awareness skills showedlarger word regularity effects and better nonwordreading. Processes involving two sources of knowledgefor phonological recoding are discussed asexplanations of these and many previous results onphonological deficits and of the phonological effectsof phonics instruction. 相似文献

Perceptions and knowledge of preservice and inservice educators about early reading instruction 总被引：2，自引：0，他引：2

A major conclusion from research regarding children with poor reading performance is that early, systematic instruction in
phonological awareness and phonics improves early reading and spelling skills and results in a reduction of the number of
students who read below grade level. The purpose of this study was to examine the perceptions and knowledge of presevice and
inservice educators about early reading instruction. The results indicated that these educators expressed positive attitudes
toward explicit and implicit code instruction, with inservice educators more positive about explicit code instruction than
preservice educators and preservice educators more positive about implicit code instruction. Preservice and inservice educators
demonstrated limited knowledge of phonological awareness or terminology related to language structure and phonics. Additionally,
they perceived themselves as only somewhat prepared to teach early reading to struggling readers. These findings indicate
a continuing mismatch between what educators believe and know and what convergent research supports as effective early reading
instruction for children at risk for reading difficulties. Implications support continuing efforts to inform and reform teacher
education.

A case is made for the importance of children's development of phonological awareness--whether they are hearing or deaf--if they are to reach their potential as readers. Relevant terms are defined (i.e., phonological awareness, phonological processes, and phonics) to assist the reader with the research review, which covers (a) the typical stages in the acquisition of phonological awareness and (b) phonological awareness and deafness. Suggestions for phonological awareness assessment are offered, along with the recommendation that the use of recently developed formal and informal measures of phonological awareness might facilitate the setting of goals and objectives when deaf educators or speech-language pathologists are evaluating the skills of deaf students and planning instruction for these students. Such tools yield information about skills that have been shown to correlate with literacy attainment and that are not commonly addressed by deaf educators or speech-language pathologists serving deaf students. Finally, research concerning the facilitation of phonological awareness and its application is explained. 相似文献

The present longitudinal study aimed to investigate the development of word decoding skills during incremental phonics instruction in Dutch as a transparent orthography. A representative sample of 973 Dutch children in the first grade (M age = 6;1, SD = 0;5) was exposed to incremental subsets of Dutch grapheme–phoneme correspondences during 6 consecutive blocks of 3 weeks of phonics instruction. Children’s accuracy and efficiency of curriculum embedded word decoding were assessed after each incremental block, followed by a standardized word decoding measurement. Precursor measures of rapid naming, short-term memory, vocabulary, phonological awareness, and letter knowledge were assessed by the end of kindergarten and subsequently related to the word decoding efficiency in the first grade. The results showed that from the very beginning, children attained ceiling levels of decoding accuracy, whereas their efficiency scores increased despite the incremental character of the consecutive decoding assessments embedded in the curriculum. Structural equation modelling demonstrated high stability of the individual differences assessed by word decoding efficiency during phonics instruction during the first 5 months of the first grade. Curriculum embedded word decoding was highly related to standardized word decoding after phonics instruction was completed. Finally, early literacy and lexical retrieval, and to a lesser extent verbal and visual short term memory, predicted the first fundamental processes of mastering word decoding skills. 相似文献

Visual phonics, a system of 45 hand and symbol cues that represent the phonemes of spoken English, has been used as a tool in literacy instruction with deaf/hard-of-hearing (DHH) students for over 20 years. Despite years of anecdotal support, there is relatively little published evidence of its impact on reading achievement. This study was designed to examine the relationship between performance on a phonological awareness task, performance on a decoding task, reading ability, and length of time in literacy instruction with visual phonics for 10 DHH kindergarten through Grade 3 students receiving academic instruction with sign-supported English and American Sign Language. Findings indicate that these students were able to use phonological information to make rhyme judgments and to decode; however, no relationship between performance on reading ability and length of time in literacy instruction with visual phonics was found. 相似文献

New Zealand’s approach to literacy instruction is predominantly whole language. Explicit code-orientated literacy instruction is not favoured, however, most teachers are believed to include phonics in their literacy lessons. No study has been reported on phonics use in New Zealand schools. Survey responses on the use of phonics instruction from 666 primary school teachers were analysed. We also assessed knowledge of the basic language constructs related to early reading success with 55 teachers participating in a professional development program on literacy teaching. A word identification prompt task based on six common word error scenarios experienced by beginning readers was also administered. Results of the phonics survey revealed that 90% of teachers indicated they used phonics in their literacy instruction. Knowledge of basic language constructs was variable: phonological and phonemic knowledge were generally good, but understanding of phonic and morphological constructs was relatively weak. Only 40% of initial word identification prompts were focussed on word-level information; the remainder (60%) were based on context or were non-specific. The implications of these findings for beginning readers are discussed. 相似文献

Reading electronic and printed books with and without adult instruction: effects on emergent reading
The effects of electronic book (e-book) and printed book reading on children’s emergent reading with and without adult instruction
were investigated. One hundred twenty-eight 5- to 6-year-old kindergarten children from low SES families were randomly assigned
to one of four groups (32 children each): (1) independently reading the e-book (EB); (2) reading the e-book with adult instruction
(EBI); (3) reading the printed book with adult instruction (PBI); and (4) receiving the regular kindergarten program (control).
The three intervention groups included four book-reading sessions each. Pre- and post-intervention emergent reading measures
included concept about print (CAP), word reading, and phonological awareness. The results showed that the EBI group achieved
greater progress in word reading and CAP than all other groups. The EBI group also achieved greater progress in phonological
awareness than the EB and the control groups. Implications for future research and for educators are discussed. 相似文献

The introduction of text conventions, such as word separation, the separation of letter and background and the lower‐case letter are appraised with respect to their contribution to literacy instruction. The change in the visual appearance of the graphic word over time led to the assignment of secondary status to spelling and low appreciation of the role of phonology, due to the disappearance of audible speech in skilled reading. Since the two major literacy programmes, whole language and phonics, are based on two different stages of reading, both programmes complement each other. Whole language represents the skilled stage of reading, given its reliance on the graphic word, whereas phonics represents the unskilled stage, owing to its emphasis on the intermediatory role of phonological processing in word recognition. Neither literacy programme offers instruction in the integration of letters in a verbally recoded form with the explicit goal of the creation of word gestalts in the course of literacy acquisition. 相似文献

The aim of this study was to determine the cognitive processes of adult literacy acquisition. We assessed the progress of 59 women participating in an intensive adult literacy program that we have developed in Turkey. After only 90 hr of instruction, there were significant improvements in letter and word recognition, phonological awareness, and spelling levels. Word recognition and spelling were predicted by phonological awareness. The results were consistent with studies on children's literacy acquisition, which show the critical nature of phonological awareness in literacy acquisition. 相似文献

This study evaluates Reading Intervention—a 10-week supplementary reading programme emphasising the link between phonological
awareness and reading—when delivered in a realistic educational setting. Twenty-nine 6-year-olds with reading difficulties
participated in Reading Intervention and their progress and attainments were compared with those of a representative control
group from the same classes, matched on age and gender. Language profiles were also explored. Children with reading difficulties
showed weaknesses in phonological awareness and literacy as well as nonphonological oral language skills and nonverbal reasoning.
During the intervention, the intervention group made significantly greater progress than the control group in early word reading,
phoneme awareness and phonetic spelling. Over a 6-month follow-up period, the intervention group maintained its gains but
during this time made significantly less progress on single word reading, phoneme awareness and phonetic spelling than the
control group. These findings provide evidence that reading interventions can be delivered effectively in standard educational
settings. We argue that a better understanding of how to manage withdrawal of intervention and how to address poor readers’
additional oral language weaknesses is needed. 相似文献

This study examined the cognitive skills associated with early reading development when children were taught by different types of instruction. Seventy-nine children (mean age at pre-test 4;10 (.22 S.D.) and post-test 5;03 (.21 S.D.)) were taught to read either by an eclectic approach which included sight-word learning, guessing from context and analytic phonics, or by a synthetic phonics approach, where children were taught solely to sound and blend letters to read unfamiliar words. The results illustrated differences in the skills supporting children's word reading based on their method of reading instruction. For the eclectic group, pre-test letter knowledge, vocabulary and rhyming skills predicted later reading ability, whereas for the synthetic phonics group, letter knowledge, phonemic awareness and memory span predicted later reading skill. The results suggest that children will draw upon different cognitive skills when reading if they are taught to use different word recognition strategies. 相似文献

Learning to read is a process that begins well before children commence formal schooling and well before children learn to decode print. Children's early reading skills are, first and foremost, foundationally contingent upon children's oral language and phonological awareness proficiencies – skills that can be mapped across a continuum of development from speech‐to‐print. Nine educators from Victoria, Australia, were interviewed, asked to share their understandings and planning for literacy learning when working with 2–3‐year‐old children. Findings showed that the educators exposed children to opportunities to develop their communication and oral language skills, privileging general conversation and storybook reading. However, some educators appeared unaware of the various stages of phonological awareness and/or appeared to privilege phonics over and above earlier stages of development. The authors recommend that educators, managers and course designers seeking to support young children's emergent literacy development use a framework such as the one presented in this paper to evaluate their knowledges/practices/programmes and that further, larger scale research be conducted that compares educators' interview data with what they do in practice. 相似文献

At the beginning of the school year, 80 first graders, half receiving phonics instruction and half receiving whole word instruction, were asked to spell, read aloud, and recognize 60 regular and exception words. A standardized reading test and phoneme segmentation test were also administered. Those above grade level in reading excelled in phonological recording and application of grapheme-phoneme correspondence rules and were weaker in utilization of visual-orthographic knowledge. Those below grade level applied visual more than phonological coding and benefited from the visual-orthographic knowledge available in a clue word. Results support a continuum of visual and phonological analysis skills in first-grade reading consistent with Frith's (1985) logographic, alphabetic, and orthographic skill levels. 相似文献

Teachers’ acquisition of knowledge about English word structure 总被引：1，自引：0，他引：1
Previous research suggests that teachers’ knowledge about English word structure (e.g., the phonological structure of words
and common orthographic patterns in English) may be limited, although this knowledge is important for effective teaching of
word decoding. This study examined teacher education students’ knowledge about word structure, and improvements in their knowledge
as a result of instruction, using three tasks: graphophonemic segmentation, classification of pseudowords by syllable type,
and classification of real words as phonetically regular or irregular. Participants came from a special education certification
program and included both preservice and inservice teachers. Results indicated that prior preparation to teach reading influenced
participants’ initial performance on two of the three word-structure tasks (all but graphophonemic segmentation); however,
prior experience in teaching reading did not influence word-structure knowledge. A subset of participants who received specific
instruction about word structure improved their knowledge relative to a comparison group of teacher education students who
did not receive word-structure instruction. Prior preparation did not influence participants’ responsiveness to instruction.
Conclusions support the viewpoint that teacher education must include information about English word structure for educators
who will teach reading and suggest that sufficiently intensive instruction may be important in developing word-structure knowledge. 相似文献

This study compared the early reading development of five‐year‐old children who were learning to read either English (an opaque orthography) or Welsh (a shallow orthography). The children were being educated in Welsh and English‐speaking primary schools in Wales during their first year of formal reading instruction. Teaching methods in both schools emphasised phonics. The reading, letter recognition and phonological awareness skills of the children were tested at three points in the year (November 1998, March 1999 and June 1999). By March, the children who were learning to read in Welsh were performing better than the English‐speaking group at word recognition. The English‐speaking children showed some improvement in their ability to read regular words across the three test phases, but no significant improvement in their ability to read irregular words. The children learning to read in Welsh also performed better on a phoneme counting task in March and June than the English‐speaking children. Both groups performed similarly on tests of letter recognition throughout the year. The results suggest that a transparent orthography facilitates reading acquisition and phoneme awareness skills from the earliest stages of reading development onward. 相似文献

Abstract In the context of a national inquiry into the teaching of literacy in Australia, an investigation of beliefs about early reading and spelling instruction and knowledge of metalinguistics of primary pre‐service teachers in Western Australia was undertaken. We also sought to discover how confident this group felt about teaching reading and spelling and how their teacher training could better prepare them for these complex and challenging tasks. Results indicated that pre‐service teachers in this particular sample were strongly in favour of code‐based instruction and believed that it was important to know how to assess and teach phonological awareness and phonics. Despite these beliefs, it was found that knowledge of spoken and written language structure and linguistics terminology was not well developed and only 7 per cent of participants stated that they felt well prepared to teach reading and spelling. These findings highlight a disparity between what educators know and believe and what convergent research purports as effective early reading and spelling instruction. 相似文献

This study investigated the effects of a 12-week language-enriched phonological awareness instruction on 76 Hong Kong young children who were learning English as a second language. The children were assigned randomly to receive the instruction on phonological awareness skills embedded in vocabulary learning activities or comparison instruction which consisted of vocabulary learning and writing tasks but no direct instruction in phonological awareness skills. They were tested on receptive and expressive vocabulary, phonological awareness at the syllable, rhyme and phoneme levels, reading, and spelling in English before and after the program implementation. The results indicated that children who received the phonological awareness instruction performed significantly better than the comparison group on English word reading, spelling, phonological awareness at all levels and expressive vocabulary on the posttest when age, general intelligence and the pretest scores were controlled statistically. The findings suggest that phonological awareness instruction embedded in vocabulary learning activities might be beneficial to kindergarteners learning English as a second language. 相似文献

Commonly used early childhood curricula were examined to consider the degree to which they support research-based instruction for phonological awareness (PA) and phonics. A content analysis was completed for two types of curricula widely used in Head Start: overarching general curricula and lesson-based curricula, which usually provide more explicit teaching instructions. Both types of curriculum demonstrated the same pattern of findings; while all curricula included some content aligned with standards, programs differed greatly in the number of objectives and instructional strategies included for PA and phonics instruction. Overall, curricula were most likely to address earlier developing PA skills (e.g., rhyming, alliteration) with more limited attention to advanced skills that are closely linked with reading development (e.g., segmenting and blending of phonemes). Phonics instruction was not included often in any of the curricula studied, and opportunities for individualizing instruction were rare, particularly for children with special needs. Results suggest that instructional recommendations for PA and phonics in most of these commonly-used Head Start curricula, even those curricula which typically provide more explicit instruction for teachers, do not align with the instruction provided in effective intervention studies, and therefore may not be powerful enough to influence children’s reading trajectories. 相似文献
