The video will assist you in getting a crystal clear picture as to the differences between the P. A. and Phonics.
Collectively discuss each part of the video and compose a one-page single spaced document explaining each of the three areas. Provide examples for phonological awareness, phonemic awareness and phonics.

Discussion Questions:
Based off of the information that you have read this week reflect on the following topics in the discussion board:
What did you already know (or thought you knew) about special education,
What surprised you from the information you read this week,
In your opinion, or from your personal perspective, what are the big issues in special ed and/or what needs to be taken into consideration or changed?
What do you want to know about special education this semester?
What might it mean to think of the classroom not as a room within an
institution that is already public, but as a space in which teachers and learners make public?”what is the purpose of having a location?
Roblyer & Hughes (2019) discuss the importance and use of data collection and analysis in Chapter 4. Address examples of how you collect data from your students and how you use that data. Have you taught your students how to collect and organize data? What methods worked well for you?
(at least 60 seconds speech)
What’s on the walls? How is the furniture arranged? What about bulletin board displays: what’s on them?
How is it arranged? What type of student work is up on the walls? Are materials store-bought/made by teachers/ made by students? Are there games/toys in the room?Do the children seem comfortable and content?
Are the children engaged?
Are they able to use the classroom independently?

Education website: https://education.ky.gov/educational/diff/pages/culturallyresponsiveinstruction.aspx
and the reading: “What are Key Features of Culturally Responsive Teaching?” Does this classroom seem to be an example of culturally responsive teaching? Why or why not? Be specific. (This part should be at least one paragraph long.)
Refer back to the article we read at the beginning of the semester: “Want to Get Your Kids into College? Let Them Play?” Would you say this is primarily a “skills-based” or a “play-based” classroom? Be sure you’re clear about what each of these means. Say why you think what you think. (This part should be at least one paragraph long.)
What is phonemic awareness? Define and explain (2). What is phonological awareness? Define and explain. Use your CORE book and resources in this module to write up a complete explanation. Include all the components of phonemic and phonological awareness. Make sure to list the components separately and include a definition for each, a brief explanation for each, and any additional information for each of the components.
How are oral language development and phonological awareness interrelated? (You may want to refer to what you learned in the previous module, Oral Language Development, and what you are learning in this module, Phonological Awareness, to help you compose your response to this question)
Discuss some activities in a classroom that would support/teach students phonemic/phonological awareness. Name and explain two classroom strategies that would benefit students learning phonemic/phonological awareness.
What is Dyslexia? (2) What are the best strategies to use with students with Dyslexia? (3). Why? Explain. (4) Explain the relationship between phonemic awareness and dyslexia
What is UDL? (2) How do these strategies help learners? (3). Give one example.
