Phonological Awareness
Teaching phonemic awareness to children significantly improves their reading when compared to instruction without any attention to phonemic awareness. Specifically, research results led the National Reading Panel to conclude that Phonological Awareness training positively impacts students’ phonemic awareness, reading, and spelling.
Use the P.A.S.T. Assessment, included in Literacy First’s Phonological Awareness program to screen your Preschool and Kindergarten children. Developing Expert Readers: Phonological Awareness was made for Response to Intervention. Using the assessment results you will know which skills individual students have mastered and which ones they still need help to master.
