1.
In this stage, children rely on visual clues to read words, For example, a picture of a fish can be a prompt for a student to read the word fish.
Correct Answer
A. Pre-AlpHabetic
Explanation
In the pre-alphabetic stage of reading development, children rely on visual clues such as pictures or shapes to recognize and read words. They do not yet understand the relationship between letters and sounds. This stage is characterized by memorizing whole words or using environmental cues to guess the word. Therefore, the given statement aligns with the characteristics of the pre-alphabetic stage.
2.
During this stage, children transition from a visual context to the alphabetic principle. For example, the word sat may be familiar to children because they recognize the letters 's' and 't' and their corresponding sounds.
Correct Answer
B. Partial AlpHabetic
Explanation
During the partial alphabetic stage, children begin to understand the relationship between letters and sounds. They recognize individual letters and their corresponding sounds, but they may not yet have a full understanding of how letters combine to form words. In this stage, children may be able to recognize familiar words based on the letters they see and the sounds they make. The example given in the explanation, where children recognize the letters 's' and 't' in the word 'sat', demonstrates this partial understanding of the alphabetic principle.
3.
At this stage, children are able to read words using letter-sound relationship.
Correct Answer
C. Full AlpHabetic
Explanation
At the full alphabetic stage, children are able to read words using the letter-sound relationship and also have a good understanding of the alphabetic principle. They can recognize and decode words by applying their knowledge of letter sounds and letter patterns. This stage is characterized by the ability to read unfamiliar words and use context cues to aid comprehension.
4.
During this stage, children use alphabetic principles but also make efficient use of predictable letter patterns that are larger than letter-sound correspondences. For example, suffices like -ed, -ing, -est.
Correct Answer
D. Consolidated AlpHabetic
Explanation
During the consolidated alphabetic stage, children have developed a strong understanding of alphabetic principles and are able to make efficient use of predictable letter patterns. They are able to recognize and use common letter patterns such as suffixes (-ed, -ing, -est) to decode words. This stage represents a higher level of phonological awareness and word recognition skills, as children are able to apply their knowledge of letter-sound correspondences and larger letter patterns to read and spell words accurately.
5.
At this stage, a child is able to recognize most words automatically by sight. Multiple word analysis skills are used to develop a high level of reading accuracy.
Correct Answer
E. Automatic AlpHabetic
Explanation
At this stage, a child is able to recognize most words automatically by sight. This means that they are able to quickly and effortlessly identify and understand words without having to sound them out or decode them letter by letter. This level of reading accuracy is achieved through the use of multiple word analysis skills, such as recognizing word patterns and using contextual cues. Therefore, the term "Automatic Alphabetic" accurately describes this stage of reading development.
6.
Are word analysis part of encoding or decoding skills?
Correct Answer
A. Decoding
Explanation
Word analysis refers to the ability to break down words into their individual sounds or syllables, recognize letter patterns, and understand the meaning of words. This process is a crucial aspect of decoding skills, which involve translating written words into spoken language. When decoding, individuals use their word analysis skills to identify and pronounce words accurately. On the other hand, encoding skills involve the ability to spell words correctly and use appropriate grammar and syntax when writing. Therefore, word analysis is part of decoding rather than encoding skills.
7.
Which is NOT a clue used as part of a context clue to enable the reader to use information obtained from the immediate textual setting to identify a word or word group?
Correct Answer
B. Pragmatic Clue
Explanation
A pragmatic clue is not used as part of a context clue to enable the reader to use information obtained from the immediate textual setting to identify a word or word group. Pragmatic clues refer to the social and cultural context in which the text is written, such as the speaker's intentions or the audience's expectations. Context clues typically rely on the immediate textual setting, such as the surrounding words or phrases, to provide hints about the meaning of an unfamiliar word.
8.
The words some, have, does, once, give, and said are all what type of sight words?
Correct Answer
B. Irregular
Explanation
High Frequency would be words, such as the, to, and, he, a, and I
9.
The pattern CVC and CVCC are seen with which type of vowel sounds?
Correct Answer
B. Short
Explanation
CVCe, CVV, and CVVC patterns are seen with long vowel sounds.
10.
The C and V in the pattern CVC, CVCC, CVCe, CVV, and CVVC stands for consonant and vowel.
Correct Answer
A. True
Explanation
The lower case e as in CVCe stands for the silent e.
11.
Diagraphs are two letters that represent different sounds but are pronounced together.
Correct Answer
B. False
Explanation
Diagraphs are two letters that stand for one sound and Blends are two letters that represent different sounds but are pronounced together.
12.
The relationship between sounds and letters, onset-rimes, word families, blending sounds, structural analysis, and identification of roots, prefixes, and suffixes are what kind of instruction?
Correct Answer
A. Decoding
Explanation
Decoding instruction refers to the teaching and learning of the relationship between sounds and letters, onset-rimes, word families, blending sounds, structural analysis, and identification of roots, prefixes, and suffixes. It involves the ability to translate written words into their corresponding sounds or phonemes. By understanding these relationships, learners can decode or read words accurately and fluently. Encoding, on the other hand, refers to the ability to translate spoken sounds into written words. Therefore, the given correct answer, Decoding, accurately describes the type of instruction that focuses on understanding the relationship between sounds and letters and using that knowledge to read words.
13.
Parents should be encouraged to have their child memorize sight word flashcards to help promote word analysis and decoding skills.
Correct Answer
B. False
Explanation
parents should discuss and read vocabulary withing the context of the meaningful print.
