Phonological and phonemic awareness

For example, the teacher will test the child to read the word like dig and dug to help him or her to be able to read the word like disease (Adams 26). Vocabulary This is a new word one must know for efficient communication. One cannot understand the text passage if he or she does not understand the meaning of the used vocabulary in the text. The teacher detects this problem in a child and teaches the child how the word is pronounced and what it means. For instance, the teacher can read for the students a brief story from the book and highlights new vocabulary in the same story and explain to the students what it means. Comprehension It gives students the courage to interpret any work given by first reading carefully and understanding it without any difficulty and this gives a teacher an easy time to teach the students (Kendeou et al 12).

Vocabulary It makes students be fluent in their speech and makes them understand more vocabulary especially when storytelling with their fellow friends or when the teacher is teaching. Word Decoding It opens student’s minds by helping them with the ability to apply the knowledge of sound-letter putting into practice the words or sounds – letter taught by the teacher. Recommendation Phonological awareness The parents can encourage their students by buying for them reading books which contains rhyming words and this will improve the pronouncing ability of the student. Vocabulary Parents must make an attempt to read together with their child and pause wherever there is a new vocabulary and tries to define the word to the child. Kendeou, Panayiota, et al.
