LETRS UNIT 1 ASSESSMENT QUESTIONS
b. The Three Cueing Systems model omits or obscures the role of phonology. -
Answers-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.
a. early alphabetic - Answers-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
b. phonology - Answers-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
d. Determine if the students need remediation in word recognition, language
comprehension, or both. - Answers-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.
b. Verify that students have been engaged in independent reading at home for 20
minutes every day.
c. Increase demand on students to improve their passage reading rate.
d. Determine if the students need remediation in word recognition, language
comprehension, or both.
a. primary difficulties with phonology, decoding, and word recognition - Answers-In any
first-grade classroom in a typical school in the United States, approximately one-third of
students are likely to score in the "basic" or "below basic" range. The largest proportion
of those students is likely to show which characteristics?
a. primary difficulties with phonology, decoding, and word recognition
b. primary difficulties with phonology only
c. primary difficulties with automatic word recognition only
b. The Three Cueing Systems model omits or obscures the role of phonology. -
