Rethinking Phonemic Awareness for Older Students

Analysis of research has concluded that weak phonemic awareness skills are typically associated with the treatment resistor phenomenon. Curtis (2004, p. 121) concludes that “As many as one of every ten adolescents has serious difficulties in identifying words." Numerous researchers have concluded that this problem often stems from a phonological weakness. This session will provide an overview of research findings regarding the most effective phonological interventions for older students as well as strategies for integrating phoneme analysis and word level instruction. Through an interactive and engaging process, participants will be guided through the process of embedding this critical instruction in an effective phonics lesson plan that is appropriate for students second grade and beyond.

  • Participants will become familiar with research that supports the need for phoneme analysis instruction for older struggling readers
  • Participants will understand the steps of an effective phonics lesson for intervention
  • Participants will learn key points for embedding phoneme analysis instruction into a phonics intervention plan
