Understanding the Importance of Phonics and Phonemic Awareness as Foundational Literacy Skills
This webinar will provide an in-depth look at the importance of two foundational skills, Phonics and Phonemic Awareness, and participants will learn valuable information about how to explicitly teach these skills in the classroom.
Early readers develop the Foundational Literacy Skills starting from the moment they are born by listening to language and acquiring knowledge of language. As students transition into school, we must be knowledgeable about how those early language skills develop into the reading and writing relevant skills of Phonics and Phonemic Awareness. In this session, Katy Honish will provide an in-depth look at the importance of these two foundational skills and participants will learn valuable information about how to explicitly teach these skills in the classroom.
