Questions and Answers
  • 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.

    • A.

      Pre-Alphabetic

    • B.

      Partial Alphabetic

    • C.

      Full Alphabetic

    • D.

      Consolidated Alphabetic

    • E.

      Automatic Alphabetic

    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.

    Rate this question:

  • 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.

    • A.

      Pre-Alphabetic

    • B.

      Partial Alphabetic

    • C.

      Full Alphabetic

    • D.

      Consolidated Alphabetic

    • E.

      Automatic Alphabetic

    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.

    Rate this question:

  • 3. 

    At this stage, children are able to read words using letter-sound relationship.

    • A.

      Pre-Alphabetic

    • B.

      Partial Alphabetic

    • C.

      Full Alphabetic

    • D.

      Consolidated Alphabetic

    • E.

      Automatic Alphabetic

    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.

    Rate this question:

  • 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.

    • A.

      Pre-Alphabetic

    • B.

      Partial Alphabetic

    • C.

      Full Alphabetic

    • D.

      Consolidated Alphabetic

    • E.

      Automatic Alphabetic

    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.

    Rate this question:

  • 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.

    • A.

      Pre-Alphabetic

    • B.

      Partial Alphabetic

    • C.

      Full Alphabetic

    • D.

      Consolidated Alphabetic

    • E.

      Automatic Alphabetic

    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.

    Rate this question:

  • 6. 

    Are word analysis part of encoding or decoding skills?

    • A.

      Decoding

    • B.

      Encoding

    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.

    Rate this question:

  • 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?

    • A.

      Picture Clue

    • B.

      Pragmatic Clue

    • C.

      Semantic Clue

    • D.

      Syntactic Clue

    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.

    • A.

      True

    • 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.

    Rate this question:

  • 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?

    • A.

      Decoding

    • B.

      Encoding

    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.
