When a student has a grasp of phonics, that means he/she understands the relationship between sounds (phonemes) and letters (graphemes) and how the two work together in combination. When a student understands this relationship and can manipulate the sounds and letters, they can read and spell.
Word study is a mixture of phonics with spelling and vocabulary. It is essentially a way that students can practice looking at and playing around with patterns in their writing and reading.
How do I assess it?
- Blending and Segmenting practice
- Elkonin Letter Boxes
- CORE Phonics Survey
- AIMSweb Test of Early Literacy (Letter Sound Fluency/Nonsense Word Fluency)
- DIBELS (Nonsense Word Fluency)
- Fox in a Box
