INGHAM ISD Goal
Goal: 80% of students will reach the K readiness expectation for phonological
awareness as measured by TSGold objective 15
COR item N
Today’s Goal: Identify 1-3 phonemic awareness activities from Creative
Curriculum you are going to implement in your classroom.
Key Components of Emergent Literacy
Component
Description
Phonological Awareness
Babies, toddlers and preschoolers can learn to have fun with sounds!
Figuring out words that rhyme, coming up with words that share a beginning
sound, and saying silly words all help build a child’s phonological awareness;
that is, the ability to notice, think about, and play with sounds in words.
These skills will be used every time your child reads and writes! Can be done
in the dark
Alphabetic Principal
One strong predictor of success in reading is a child’s familiarity with the
letters of the alphabet. This includes knowing a letter’s name, shape and
sound. Most good alphabet activities help kids get practice in each area.
Awareness/Concepts of Print
Print awareness is understanding that print is organized in a particular way —
for example, knowing that print is read from left to right and top to bottom. It
is knowing that words consist of letters and that spaces appear between
words. Print awareness is a child's earliest introduction to literacy.

Key Components of Emergent Literacy
Component
Description
Early Writing Development
Children, even our youngest learners, enjoy putting crayon to
paper. What often starts as scribbling ends up being
important clues to a child’s understanding that print carries
meaning. Four-year olds often enjoy “writing” their name and
other special words like Mom, Dad, love, and you. Helping
your child develop writing readiness skills includes making
the most out of everyday writing and providing lots of
opportunity to practice!

Oral Language Skills
Vocabulary & Comprehension
Kids who hear more words spoken at home learn more words
and enter school with better vocabularies. This larger
vocabulary pays off exponentially as a child progresses
through school. It’s never too soon to talk to your baby, and
make it interesting!
