Phonic Generalizations in "Chrysanthemum"

English Language Arts (2004)

Grade 1

• Goal 1: The learner will develop and apply enabling strategies and skills to read and write.
  • Objective 1.01: Develop phonemic awareness and demonstrate knowledge of alphabetic principle:
    • count syllables in a word.
    • blend the phonemes of one-syllable words.
    • segment the phonemes of one-syllable words.
    • change the beginning, middle, and ending sounds to produce new words.
    • create and state a series of rhyming words that may include consonant blends (e.g., flag, brag).
  • Objective 1.02: Demonstrate decoding and word recognition strategies and skills:
    • generate the sounds from all the letters and appropriate letter patterns which should include consonant blends and long and short vowel patterns.
    • use phonics knowledge of sound-letter relationships to decode regular one-syllable words when reading words and text.
    • recognize many high frequency and/or common irregularly spelled words in text (e.g., have said, where, two).
    • read compound words and contractions.
    • read inflectional forms (e.g., -s, -ed, -ing) and root words (e.g., looks, looked, looking).
    • read appropriate word families.
  • Objective 1.03: Use pronunciation, sentence meaning, story meaning, and syntax to confirm accurate decoding or to self-correct errors.
• Goal 5: The learner will apply grammar and language conventions to communicate effectively.
  • Objective 5.01: Use phonic knowledge and basic patterns (e.g., an, ee, ake) to spell correctly three-and four-letter words.

Grade 2

• Goal 1: The learner will develop and apply enabling strategies and skills to read and write.
  • Objective 1.01: Use phonics knowledge and structural analysis (e.g., knowledge of syllables, suffixes, prefixes, root words) to decode regular multi-syllable words when reading text.
  • Objective 1.03: Self-monitor decoding by using letter-sound knowledge of all consonants and vowels.
• Goal 5: The learner will apply grammar and language conventions to communicate effectively.
  • Objective 5.01: Spell correctly using:
    • previously studied words.
    • spelling patterns.
    • analysis of sounds to represent all the sounds in a word in one's own writing.

Kindergarten

• Goal 1: The learner will develop and apply enabling strategies to read and write.
  • Objective 1.02: Develop phonemic awareness and knowledge of alphabetic principle:
    • demonstrate understanding that spoken language is a sequence of identifiable speech sounds.
    • demonstrate understanding that the sequence of letters in the written word represents the sequence of sounds in the spoken word.
    • demonstrate understanding of the sounds of letters and understanding that words begin and end alike (onsets and rimes).
