What is Phonemic Awareness all about?
Speaker: Don McCabe, Noted Author of
To Teach a Dyslexic
and
The
Patterns of English Spelling
Participants will learn:
What phonemic awareness is and is not.
That nearly 100% of the audience will fail to be
aware of one or more phonemes when McCabe plays one short word on a tape recorder. Only
after the word has been written will the participants be able to hear all the phonemes.
-
The Difference between Phonics and Phonemics and
Phonetics.
-
That most criticism of the way phonics is currently being
taught has some truth in it. Most phonic programs have serious flaws.
-
To identify the five types of English spellings: The
simple, the fancy, the insane, the tricky, and the scrunched up.
-
What most students never learn unless they're
taught, including many of the gifted.
