1.Phonological awareness: refers to a student's ability to identify and
manipulate units of oral language. The ability to delete a syllable in a
spoken word, such as saying "plane" when "air" is deleted from the
word "airplane," is an example of a phonological-awareness skill.
2.oral language milestones: Responding to simple questions with a "yes"
or "no"
Answering questions using complete sentences and a variety of sentence
structures Using content-related vocabulary correctly during
conversations
Making an oral presentation that is appropriate for the given audience
3.use of multiple sensory modalities to learn: Using visual, auditory,
tactile, and kinesthetic senses to reinforce learning during the activity
supports long-term memory of the targeted vocabulary.

,4.A primary purpose of a criterion-referenced reading benchmark is to: set
the standards for student skill mastery along with a time frame
indicating when the level of mastery should be achieved
5.can help accelerate the growth of grade level readers: Students typically
have a listening vocabulary that is above their reading vocabulary.
Listening to books that are at their interest level regardless of reading
level, while they either follow along with the text or not, allows them
access to much more than just decoding words. Students will be
exposed to vocabulary they may not typically hear, which helps their
receptive and expressive vocabulary. Additionally, listening to texts
allows students to focus on the deeper levels of reading, such as
making inferences, exploring character development, and discussing
theme. Teachers can also use audiobooks as part of text sets that
expose students to different genres and different types of styles.
