Word Study Term Quiz

1. 1Which of the following students is demonstrating the specific type of phonological awareness known as phonemic awareness?

   1. Aa student who, after hearing the word hat, can orally identify that it ends with the sound /t/
   2. Ba student who, after being shown a letter of the alphabet, can orally identify its corresponding sound(s)
   3. Ca student who listens to the words sing, ring, fling, and hang and can identify that hang is different
   4. Da student who listens to the word magazine and can determine that it contains three syllables
2. 2A kindergarten teacher could best determine
   if a child has begun to develop phonemic
   awareness by asking the child to:

   1. Apoint to the correct letter on an alphabet chart as the teacher names specific letters.
   2. Bcount the number of words the child hears in a sentence as the teacher says the sentence.
   3. Csay the word cat, then say the first sound the child hears in the word.
   4. Dlisten to the teacher say boat and coat, then identify whether the two words rhyme.
3. 3As students begin to read, the ability to
   blend phonemes orally contributes to their
   reading development primarily because it
   helps students:

   1. Arecognize and understand sight words in a text.
   2. Bguess the meaning of unfamiliar words from their context.
   3. Cdivide written words into onsets and rimes.
   4. Duse knowledge of letter-sound correspondence to decode words.
4. 4A teacher holds up a series of familiar
   objects, asking students to name each object
   and isolate the final sound they hear. This
   type of activity would be most appropriate
   for a student who:

   1. Aneeds help developing phonemic segmentation skills.
   2. Bis performing below grade-level benchmarks in reading fluency.
   3. Clacks automaticity in word recognition
   4. Dhas difficulty sounding out phonetically regular one-syllable words.
5. 5Phonemic awareness contributes most
   to the development of phonics skills in
   beginning readers by helping them:

   1. Aunderstand the concept of a silent letter.
   2. Bidentify in spoken language separate sounds that can be mapped to letters
   3. Ccount the number of syllables in a written word.
   4. Drecognize different ways in which one sound can be represented in print
6. 6Which of the following first-grade students
   has attained the highest level of phonemic
   awareness?

   1. Aa student who, after hearing the word hot and the sound /ĭ/, can substitute /ĭ/ for /ŏ/ to make the word hit
   2. Ba student who, after hearing the words fish and fun, can identify that they both begin with the same phoneme, /f/
   3. Ca student who can orally segment the word wonderful into won-der-ful
   4. Da student who can orally segment the word train into its onset and rime
7. 7Asking students to listen to a word
   (e.g., same) and then tell the teacher
   all the sounds in the word is an exercise that
   would be most appropriate for students who:

   1. Aare beginning to develop systematic phonics skills.
   2. Bhave a relatively low level of phonological awareness
   3. Care beginning to master the alphabetic principle
   4. Dhave a relatively high level of phonemic awareness
8. 8A kindergarten teacher asks a small group of
   students to repeat after her. First, she says
   the word grape and then pronounces it as gr
   and ape. Next, she says the word take and
   then pronounces it as t and ake. This
   activity is likely to promote the students'
   phonemic awareness primarily by

   1. Ahelping them recognize distinct syllables in oral language.
   2. Bencouraging them to divide words into onsets and rimes
   3. Cpromoting their awareness of letter-sound correspondence
   4. Dteaching them how to distinguish between consonants and vowels.
9. 9A teacher shows a student pictures of
   familiar objects. As the teacher points to the
   first picture, she asks the student to name the
   object in the picture. Next, she asks the
   student to count on his fingers the number of
   sounds he makes as he says the word again.
   This activity is most likely to promote which
   of the following?

   1. Aphonemic awareness skills
   2. Bunderstanding of the alphabetic principle
   3. Cdevelopment of letter-sound correspondence
   4. Dword identification skills
10. 10A beginning-level English Language
    Learner can consistently blend individual
    phonemes to make simple English words
    composed of two or three phonemes but is
    having difficulty blending the sounds of
    familiar single-syllable words composed of
    four phonemes (e.g., clip, trap, spin).
    Which of the following questions would be
    most important for the first-grade teacher to
    consider when addressing the needs of this
    student?

    1. ADoes the student's primary language have consonant blends?
    2. BAre the target words in the student's oral vocabulary in English?
    3. CCan the student distinguish between short and long vowel sounds in English?
    4. DDo the target words have cognates in the student's primary language?
