(a) Name and define the two areas that an emergency literacy assessment include. Describe what happens when children fail to learn these emergent literacy skills prior to beginning formal reading instruction in kindergarten. (b) Name the four phonological processing deficits. Explain what the authors have indicated as being the treatment for these deficits
What will be an ideal response?
(a) Concepts of print: The understanding that marks and squiggles on a page represent words and convey meaning
Phonological awareness: The ability to perceive that spoken words include a series of individual sounds
RESULT IF NOT LEARNED BY KINDER: Likelihood of reading failure is high.
(b) 4 phonological processing deficits:
