Which learning activity would best support the standard demonstrating an understanding of the organization and structure of a text?Writing a summary of the text in their own words- it requires students to understand the texts overall organization and structure Which learning activity would best support the standard of identifying the main idea and supporting details of the text?creating a story map to visualize key elements- this helps students organize and identify the main idea and supporting details in a visual format Which of the following best describes the approach used in structured literacy?Focuses on explicit, systematic instruction in phonemic awareness, phonics, and other foundational skills What is one of the goals of a literacy-rich environment? fostering the connection of letter-sound and letter-word within meaning contexts Which of the following is NOT a component of a literacy- rich classroom environment?regular field tips to local libraries example of kinesthetic activitytracing letters in shaving cream example of auditory activitylistening to words and giving a thumbs up when hearing a particular sound in a word example of visual activitysorting words into two groups Literacy Rich Classroom involvesresources that are (RICH)-Relevant, Inclusive, Creative, and Hands-on What is the importance of literacy-rich learning environments?they provide opportunities for students to engage with print and language in meaningful ways, fostering critical thinking skills Which strategy ensures that a given literacy instruction is aligned with the correct content standard?compare the lessons objective directly with the content standard What first step should teachers take when identifying the correct instruction sequence to help students master an end-of-year standard?identify prerequisite skills that students need to develop What is the purpose of word analysis in literacy instruction?breaking down words into their parts to understand their meanings and structures Orthographic Processorhelps us recognize and remember visual patterns of written words and letters meaning and context processorhelps us understand and interpret the meanings of words and sentences phonological processorhelps us recognize, remember, and work with the sounds in spoken language What part of the brain is responsible for understanding the definition or semantics of words during reading?meaning processor (storehouse of words) In the reading brain, which area is primarily responsible for processing sounds?phonological processor

which step in explicit instruction comes after the teacher has modeled the concept and the students have been given opportunities too practice the skill with feedback from the teacher?You do together/ Which part of the brain does not develop naturally and is activated as students are taught structured literacy lessons focusing on sound-symbol connections?planum temporale where in the brain does language comprehension primarily occur?temporal lobe or where the meaning and context processors which of the following best describes the purpose of vocabulary instruction in literacy development?enhancing comprehension and expression ex of phonemic awarenessstudents practice identifying and manipulating individual sounds in words by playing a game where they segment and blend phonemes to form new words ex of phonicsstudents participate in a hands-on activity where they use letter tiles to build words that match given sounds and patterns ex of fluencystudents engage in repeated reading of a short passage, focusing on reading it smoothly and with appropriate expression ex of vocabularystudents use a journal to write down new words they encounter in their reading, along with definitions and example sentences ex of comprehensionstudents read a story then use a graphic organizer to amp out the main idea and supporting details How does Scarbrough's reading rope model contribute to the development of skilled reading?by illustrating how various components of language and cognition work together to create fluent, skilled reading PhonologyWhat are the sounds in the word?OrthographyWhat are the letters that represent these sounds?SyntaxHow does this word function in a sentence?SemanticsWhat does this word mean?UnderstandingWhat background knowledge do I have about this word?MorphologyWhat are the parts of the words?Which factor is crucial for language acquisition and proficiency across different linguistic contexts as assesses through POSSUM?Lexical quality of words

which literacy approach emphasizes explicit instruction in the relationships between sounds and letters?structured literacy what does phonemic awareness primary focus on? manipulating individual sounds in words what is a key element of literacy acquisition?decoding skills (ability to identify written symbols into spoken sounds and language) which of the following is an essential aspect of literacy acquisition?comprehension strategies Which statement best describes the alphabetic principle? it is the understanding that letters and letter patterns represent sounds of spoken language Metacognitionpaying attention to how well you understand what you are reading what is the primary focus of phonological awareness activities in the lesson?understanding and manipulating sounds within words what is the purpose of phonics and word analysis activities?deciphering unfamiliar words- help students decode by understanding letter- sound relationships what skill does fluency practice aim to enhance? reading with expression, accuracy, and pace how are vocabulary enrichment activities incorporated into the lesson?exploring word meanings through context clues and word parts what is the goal of comprehension activities? developing critical thinking and understanding of the texts what is an effective instructional strategy to develop print awareness in early readers?the complexity of sentence structures within the text how do teachers aid in developing the reading brain in students?by teaching students to decode unfamiliar words using phonics which of the following skills do elementary students develop through text analysis and interpretation?identifying main ideas, inferring meaning, and analyzing literary elements such as plot, character development, and theme
