DETAILED ANSWERS ALREADY GRADED
A+
What are stages of reading development - ANSWER -Early Emergent
Emergent (understands alphabet, phonological awareness and knows phonics, have
command of high frequency words, developing comprehension and word attack
skills, recognize types of texts, non-fiction and fiction, and that reading has a
variety of purposes).
Early Fluent
Fluent
What are the stages of the alphabetic phase - ANSWER -The written forms of
spoken, alphabetic language languages which use letters (graphemes) in a code to
represent the sounds of speech (phonemes) specific sequences of letters form
words, this is the alphabetic principle. If we obeyed this principle we wouldn't have
words like to, too, and two.
Gradual release of responsibility - ANSWER -Teaching approach that
incorporates scaffolding (building on what the student already knows) so that the
responsibility for the content is shifted from teacher to student.
Strategies for vocabulary/literacy development - ANSWER -Integration:
connecting new vocabulary to prior knowledge
Repetition: encountering/using the word concept many times
Meaningful use: multiple opportunities to use new words in reading, writing, and
soon discussion
, Socio-cultural theory/Ex. - ANSWER -Extends the influence on the cognitive-
constructivist view out from the reader and the text into the larger social realm.
Learning is viewed as social rather than individual. -Lev Vygotsky Ex.
Understanding the zone of proximal development can be helpful for teachers.
In classroom settings, teachers may first assess students to determine their current
skill level. Educators can then offer instruction that stretches the limits of each
child's capabilities.
At first, the student may need assistance from an adult or a more knowledgeable
peer, but eventually, their zone of proximal development will expand. Teachers
can help promote this expansion by:
Planning and organizing their instruction and lessons: For example, the teacher
might organize the class into groups where less skilled children are paired with
students who have a higher skill level.
Using hints, prompts, and direct instruction to help kids improve their ability
levels.
Scaffolding, where the teacher provides specific prompts to move the child
progressively forward toward a goal.
Reader Response Theory - ANSWER -The main argument of reader-response
theory is that readers, as much as the text, play an active role in a reading
experience (Rosenblatt, 1994). This theory rejects the structuralist view that
meaning resides solely in the text. Words in a text evoke images in readers' minds
and readers bring their experiences to this encounter.
Experiential Learning - ANSWER -As the name suggests, experiential learning
involves learning from experience. The theory was proposed by psychologist
David Kolb who was influenced by the work of other theorists including John
Dewey, Kurt Lewin, and Jean Piaget
Oral Language Development - ANSWER -The complex system that relates sounds
to meanings, is made of three components: phonological, (rules for combining
sounds) semantic, (the smallest units of meaning that may be combined to make up
words) and syntactic (the rules that combine morphemes into sentences). Reading
and talking with children plays an important role in developing their vocabulary.
, The more you talk to children, the larger their vocabulary will develop. Note:
Pragmatic is also the rules that allow us to speak appropriately in different settings
What are the stages of writing development? - ANSWER -Scribbling/drawing
Letter like forms and shapes
Letters
Letters and spaces
Conventional writing and spelling (children in this stage spell most words correctly
with a reliance on knowledge of phonics to spell longer words, they can punctuate,
can properly use capital and lower case letters. Writing different purposes is
important, handwriting and spelling becomes easier.
Constructivist Theory - ANSWER -A philosophy based on the premise that people
construct their own understanding of the world they live in through reflection on
experiences.
Constructivist Theory in Practice - ANSWER -For example: Groups of students in
a science class are discussing a problem in physics. Though the teacher knows the
"answer" to the problem, she focuses on helping students restate their questions in
useful ways. She prompts each student to reflect on and examine his or her current
knowledge. When one of the students comes up with the relevant concept, the
teacher seizes upon it, and indicates to the group that this might be a fruitful
avenue for them to explore. They design and perform relevant experiments.
Afterward, the students and teacher talk about what they have learned, and how
their observations and experiments helped (or did not help) them to better
understand the concept.
Cognitive-constructivist view of reading - ANSWER -Aim to assist students in
assimilating new information to existing knowledge, as well as enabling them to
make the appropriate accommodations to their existing intellectual framework to
accommodate that information. Ex. Because of Winn-Dixie; from her inference,
and active knowledge of the text says that people who have things in common
often become friends.
