Phonological and Phonemic Awareness | Reading Rockets
Before children learn to read print, they need to become aware of how the sounds in words work. They must understand that words are made up of individual speech sounds, or phonemes. A child's skill in phonological and phonemic awareness is a good predictor of later reading success or difficulty.

Phonological awareness is a critical early literacy skill that helps kids recognize and work with the sounds of spoken language.
Phonological awareness is made up of a group of skills. Examples include being able to identify words that rhyme, counting the number of syllables in a name, recognizing alliteration, segmenting a sentence into words, and identifying the syllables in a word. The most sophisticated — and last to develop — is called phonemic awareness.
Phonemic awareness is the ability to notice, think about, and work with the individual sounds (phonemes) in spoken words. Manipulating the sounds in words includes blending, stretching, or otherwise changing words. Children can demonstrate phonemic awareness in several ways, including:
- recognizing which words in a set of words begin with the same sound
("Bell, bike, and boy all have /b/ at the beginning.")
- isolating and saying the first or last sound in a word
("The beginning sound of dog is /d/." "The ending sound of sit is /t/.")
- combining, or blending the separate sounds in a word to say the word
("/m/, /a/, /p/ – map.")
- breaking, or segmenting a word into its separate sounds
("up – /u/, /p/.")

Phonological and phonemic awareness and phonics: different but interrelated
Sometimes phonological and phonemic awareness are confused with phonics; they are two different yet interrelated skills.
Phonological and phonemic awareness refer to spoken language — the understanding that the sounds of spoken language work together to make words.
Phonics refers to the connection between sounds and print — it’s the instruction that teaches that letters represent the sounds of spoken language, or the alphabetic principle. Phonics is the tool teachers use to facilitate making print-sound associations.
Children who cannot hear and work with the phonemes of spoken words will have a difficult time learning how to relate these phonemes to letters when they see them in written words.

Phonological awareness and phonemic awareness: what’s the difference?
Phonological awareness is the ability to recognize and manipulate the spoken parts of sentences and words. Examples include being able to identify words that rhyme, recognizing alliteration, segmenting a sentence into words, identifying the syllables in a word, and blending and segmenting onset-rimes. The most sophisticated — and last to develop — is called phonemic awareness.
Phonemic awareness is the ability to notice, think about, and work with the individual sounds (phonemes) in spoken words.
This includes blending sounds into words, segmenting words into sounds, and deleting and playing with the sounds in spoken words.
Phonological awareness (PA) involves a continuum of skills that develop over time and that are crucial for reading and spelling success, because they are central to learning to decode and spell printed words. Phonological awareness is especially important at the earliest stages of reading development — in pre-school, kindergarten, and first grade for typical readers.
Explicit teaching of phonological awareness in these early years can eliminate future reading problems for many students. However, struggling decoders of any age can work on phonological awareness, especially if they evidence problems in blending or segmenting phonemes.
How about phonological awareness and phonics?
Phonological awareness refers to a global awareness of sounds in spoken words, as well as the ability to manipulate those sounds.
Phonics refers to knowledge of letter sounds and the ability to apply that knowledge in decoding unfamiliar printed words.
So, phonological awareness refers to oral language and phonics refers to print. Both of these skills are very important and tend to interact in reading development, but they are distinct skills; children can have weaknesses in one of them but not the other.
For example, a child who knows letter sounds but cannot blend the sounds to form the whole word has a phonological awareness (specifically, a phonemic awareness) problem. Conversely, a child who can orally blend sounds with ease but mixes up vowel letter sounds, reading pit for pet and set for sit, has a phonics problem.
44 phonemes
There are 26 letters in the English alphabet that make up 44 speech sounds, or phonemes.
Letters vs. phonemes
Dr. Louisa Moats explains to a kindergarten teacher why it is critical to differentiate between the letters and sounds within a word when teaching children to read and write.

Lesson 4: Emphasis. Type of accent. Place of impact.
Stress is the selection of one syllable from the measure. A syllable is distinguished by a relative difference in suprasegmental features between individual syllables tact.
Accent type
According to the method of isolating a syllable from a measure, the stress can be divided into:
-
dynamic (expiratory, power) - the syllable is emphasized by the force of exhalation
-
quantitative (quantitative) - the syllable is distinguished by longitude
-
melodic (musical, tonal) - the syllable is distinguished by the movement of the voice tone.
In fact, there are no pure types of stress, almost always one type is accompanied by another, although one of them prevails.
Dynamic accent is available in Russian, English, Czech and other languages. In Russian, dynamic stress is associated with quantitative stress.
The melodic stress occurs, for example, in Serbo-Croatian, Lithuanian, Chinese, etc.
Dynamic stress is either strong (in Russian, English, etc.) or weak (in Czech, Georgian, etc.)
In highly dynamically stressed languages, almost all the force extruded from the lungs by the jet of air is used to pronounce stressed syllable. Unstressed syllables lack strength, they weaken and change.
Changing the sound of unstressed syllables (primarily their sonorous center) is called reduction .
According to the method of separating a syllable from a measure in Russian strong dynamic stress : vowels in unstressed syllables are reduced, which leads to a variety of vowel sounds (allophones), in which a limited the number of phonemes in the Russian language. The strength of the Russian stress is accompanied by duration - the substressed syllable of the Russian word is not only the strongest, but also the longest.
In Czech weak dynamic stress : vowels in unstressed syllables hardly change.
For example: Zá -Mek VE -čer Vé -Cher Zá -MOC for - MC
Duration of the vowels of Chia performs the meaning of the abuse and not related to the dynamism of the stamina. (i.e. it is a property segment elements) and does not depend on the stressed or unstressed position.
Long vowels are twice as long as short ones.
Duration of vowel sounds of PR is not an independent property of segmental elements, it accompanies the force of dynamic stress and is its secondary characteristic. Unstressed vowels are 2-3 times longer than unstressed ones.
So, in the PR there is a strong dynamic stress with a significant quantitative component.
In CN a weak dynamic stress without a quantitative component.
For example:
pa-má-tka
Place of impact
According to the place of the allocated syllable in the word they differ:
-
fixed stress (it always happens on a certain syllable - in CN on the first, in French on the last)
-
free (different place), which is not associated with a specific place in the word, it falls on any syllable, for example, in RL, in English.
lang.
Free accent has two subtypes:
-
free permanent i.e. in different forms of a given word, the stress always falls on the same syllable (in English, in most words in RL)
-
free movable i.e. in different forms of this word, the stress falls on different syllables (for example, in some Russian words - mo-re - mo-r i , pi-shu - p and -shesh).
In RL, the stress is free, mobile and has the function of a semantic-distinctive, phonological means: lock - lock, pi-li - pi-whether. In SN, the stress is fixed and cannot acquire a phonological function.
But the mobility of Russian stress is limited, in most Russian words the stress is constant .
Each independent word in the Russian language has, as a rule, one stress . Functional and in a few cases also some independent words do not have stress on themselves and are adjacent to the neighboring word as proclitic or enclitic .
Enclitics of are some particles, for example: tell me, the teacher said ..., sometimes they can be independent words, for example: didn’t give, didn’t live, take by the hair, etc.
Proclitics of are usually monosyllabic prepositions, conjunctions, particles, etc. prepositions in combination with definite nouns sometimes shift the stress onto themselves (the next word becomes unstressed, enclitic). For example: on the head, by the hand, by the hand, without a trace ... (in CH this applies to almost all prepositions).
Two-syllable and three-syllable functional words are either unstressed or weakly impacted (with secondary stress), e.
g. in an hour or in an hour.
Polysyllabic words formed by adding two or more stems have one more (or more) in addition to the main stress - secondary . The main stress always falls on the stressed syllable of the last stem of a polysyllabic word, side ones are closer to its beginning, e.g., Far Eastern, radio broadcast. Compound words, small in volume, do not have collateral stress: locomotive, gardener.
