Summary

  • Alphabetic writing involves phoneme-based characters
  • The well-established theories of orthographic learning highlight the centrality of phonemic processing for word memory
  • There is a wide range of standard score point outcomes in word-reading intervention research
  • There appears to be a direct relationship between phonemic training and outcomes
  • The more advanced the phonemic training, the better the reading outcome

Reflect & Connect

Do what degree have you incorporated phonemic training into remedial reading lessons? How may your practice change based upon this session?
