,QUESTIONS
Question 1
A two-part review must address “Literary, Informational, Persuasive, and
Functional Texts, and Graphic Sources” and “Foundations of Language
Development and Emergent Literacy”. The first part already covers
“Characteristics and structures of various literary genres and story elements”.
Which task should complete the second part?
A. Reading fluency components (accuracy, rate, and prosody) and instructional promotion
strategies
B. Role of oral language development in emergent literacy
C. Characteristics and structures of various literary genres and story elements
D. Processes of constructing meaning and monitoring comprehension
Correct Answer: B
Full Explanation: Foundations of Language Development and Emergent Literacy: Role of oral
language development in emergent literacy. Literary, Informational, Persuasive, and Functional
Texts, and Graphic Sources: Characteristics and structures of various literary genres and story
elements. A: This describes “Development of Phonics, Word Analysis, Spelling, and Fluency”,
rather than the requested focus. C: This describes “Literary, Informational, Persuasive, and
Functional Texts, and Graphic Sources”, rather than the requested focus. D: This describes
“Reading Comprehension and Vocabulary Skills”, rather than the requested focus.
Question 2
A comparison covers “Foundations of Language Development and Emergent
Literacy”, “Reading Comprehension and Vocabulary Skills”, “Development of
Phonics, Word Analysis, Spelling, and Fluency”, “Stages of the writing
process”. Which association preserves the correct relationship? Pay particular
attention to the role of “planning, drafting, revising, editing, and publishing”.
A. Stages of the writing process — Effective listening skills for various purposes, audiences, and
instructional contexts
B. Stages of the writing process — planning, drafting, revising, editing, and publishing
C. Stages of the writing process — Role of phonics and sight words in accurate, automatic word
recognition and reading fluency
D. Stages of the writing process — Vocabulary breadth, depth, and independent word-learning
strategies (e.g., context clues, word roots)
Correct Answer: B
Full Explanation: Stages of the writing process: planning, drafting, revising, editing, and
publishing. A: This option instead describes the following different focus: Foundations of Language
Development and Emergent Literacy: Effective listening skills for various purposes, audiences, and
instructional contexts. C: This option instead describes the following different focus: Development
of Phonics, Word Analysis, Spelling, and Fluency: Role of phonics and sight words in accurate,
automatic word recognition and reading fluency. D: This option instead describes the following
different focus: Reading Comprehension and Vocabulary Skills: Vocabulary breadth, depth, and
independent word-learning strategies (e.g., context clues, word roots).

Question 3
Three briefs require, in order: (1) “Persuasive texts, arguments, and rhetorical
techniques”; (2) “Phonological and phonemic awareness skills, distinctions,
and strategies for development”; (3) “Reciprocity between decoding and
encoding (spelling development across stages)”. Which sequence of focus
areas fits all three?
A. Literary, Informational, Persuasive, and Functional Texts, and Graphic Sources →
Development of Phonics, Word Analysis, Spelling, and Fluency → Foundations of Language
Development and Emergent Literacy
B. Literary, Informational, Persuasive, and Functional Texts, and Graphic Sources → Foundations
of Language Development and Emergent Literacy → Development of Phonics, Word Analysis,
Spelling, and Fluency
C. Foundations of Language Development and Emergent Literacy → Literary, Informational,
Persuasive, and Functional Texts, and Graphic Sources → Development of Phonics, Word
Analysis, Spelling, and Fluency
D. Development of Phonics, Word Analysis, Spelling, and Fluency → Foundations of Language
Development and Emergent Literacy → Literary, Informational, Persuasive, and Functional
Texts, and Graphic Sources
Correct Answer: B
Full Explanation: Literary, Informational, Persuasive, and Functional Texts, and Graphic Sources:
Persuasive texts, arguments, and rhetorical techniques. Foundations of Language Development
and Emergent Literacy: Phonological and phonemic awareness skills, distinctions, and strategies
for development. Development of Phonics, Word Analysis, Spelling, and Fluency: Reciprocity
between decoding and encoding (spelling development across stages). A: Positions 2, 3 do not
preserve the corresponding task-to-focus relationships. C: Positions 1, 2 do not preserve the
corresponding task-to-focus relationships. D: Positions 1, 3 do not preserve the corresponding
task-to-focus relationships.
