Answer to Question 1

Phonological awareness (realization that spoken language is composed of words, syllables, and sounds) is broader than phonemic awareness (realization that words are composed of phonemes). Both concepts are important for all young children to know if they are to become successful readers. Whereas phonological and phonemic awareness just involve sound, phonics involves learning the relationship between letters and the sounds they represent. The instructional sequence now recommended by research is to begin by helping children build the basic concepts of phonological awareness, then move toward helping children develop awareness that words are composed of phonemes, and finally help children develop awareness of lettersound associations. Therefore, the instructional sequence is from broad concepts to smaller and smaller ones.

Answer to Question 2

Teachers use two kinds of assessment to measure their students' progress toward the achievement of the state standards: ongoing and on demand.
