LETRS Unit 1 Assessment
1. What is one important distinction between the Four-Part Processing
Model for Word Recognition and the Three Cueing Systems model?
a.The Four-Part Processing Model emphasizes visual processes.
b.The Three Cueing Systems model omits or obscures the role of
phonology.
c.The Three Cueing Systems model emphasizes the role of phonology.
d.The Three Cueing Systems model omits semantic processing.
2. Many students at risk for reading problems enter school without
exposure to the acad- emic language used in books or preschool
experience. These students are most likely to make progress closing
the reading and language gap if their classroom instruction
emphasizes which of the following?
a. oral language comprehension and reading aloud
b.attending to context, including semantic and syntactic cues
c. matching students with interesting reading material
d. both foundational reading skills and oral language development

, 3. A beginning first-grade student is able to segment and pronounce
the first sound in a spoken word. He tries to guess at words by looking
at the first letter only. When he writes words, he spells a few sounds
phonetically, but not all the sounds. According to Ehri, this student is
most likely in which phase of word-reading development?
a. early alphabetic
b.later alphabetic
c. prealphabetic
d. consolidated alphabetic
4. A kindergarten teacher is having students listen to three spoken
words and identify the two words that end with the same sound. The
teacher is focusing on which language system?
a. morphology
b.phonology
c. orthography
d. semantics
5. Considering the Simple View of Reading, what would be the BEST
course of action for a third-grade teacher with concerns about several
students who have not achieved fluency?
a. Observe whether students are able to work on several subskills at
once.
