Your "eyes closed" comment did it for me! Phonics requires us to have our eyes OPEN so we can see the letters associated with sounds; whereas Phonemic awareness & phonological awareness do NOT require us to have our eyes open. We can keep them closed and analyze sounds without the use of letters. Thank you!
You are amazing! I’ve spent the past 3 years of college confused about the difference and in just five minutes of you explaining it now finally understand. Thank you so much!!!
Glad to hear the video was helpful Hailee! So for the silent e, first with phonemic awareness you'd want students to hear that certain words have a short vowel vs. a long vowel. For instance, if you said the word "hop" and students segment it, they'd hear the short vowel o. In the word "hope" they would segment and hear the long o sound. Then for the phonics portion, you could point out WHY hop is pronounced "hop" and why hope is pronounced "hope." The silent e at the end is what makes the short o change into a long o. Hope this explanation helps!
Yes, this is very helpful. I've check out maybe 5 other videos and have a rough idea of them. But your clarity of presentation is unrivaled. Thank you so much!
Thank you, I never understood the difference until you explained it. Throughout my college years and even now as a teacher, it finally makes sense. It's never too late to learn something new. Thank you for sharing your knowledge with us :)
I'm a mom of 1yo twins and just came across so many cool accounts that show how 2yos can start to read (i.e. when a kid starts to talk they can learn to read). I'm getting ahead of myself but want to learn the background and theory of how to read! This is so cool. Thanks for explaining!
Oh my goodness, thank you so much for clarifying this! I FINALLY get it and the night before an interview... phew! Please keep making videos, you're a god send!
Hi all! Can anyone recommend workbooks, one for each level k-5, that covers English: phonics (for lower grades), grammar, vocabulary, and comprehension? I am hoping to keep the price down. Thanks!
omg, thank you so much for explaining the differences. So very helpful to me. I would love the sequence book you offered, but I do not see where to apply for it. Thank you for the free offer. I am working as a 1st-grade Teachers Aide, but next year I will be working with 2nd graders. This would be very helpful to me. Thank you.
I homeschool my 8 year old and she is behind in both and different areas of both. She is at about "end of K/beginning of grade 1" level. She is also doing heggerty. How else can I help her? Also I should mention that she has very good reading skills. She reads above grade level.
Hey! I actually have a blog post coming out in a couple weeks specifically talking about how parents can help their children, so stay tuned :) It sounds like so many things are going well for her! Have her work on fluency (rereading familiar texts).
It can be a lot to learn!! In simpler terms, phonological awareness includes all things that can be done by sound/orally. No print/letters is involved. So things such as rhyming, hearing a word and then saying the sounds back, breaking up a word into syllables, etc. Phonics brings in actual letters so that kids are associating letters/sounds together. So with phonics, students are actually reading/writing words. Hope this helps!
Sure! Phonemes are the individual sounds in the word. So orally, think about how you'd break apart the word "excited" into its sounds. This one is a bit tricky because the "x" and the "c" kind of blend together into one sound, and you don't really hear the "c." So, I'd say the sounds are /e/ /x/ /ī/ /t/ //ĭ/ /d/
Allison, I'm a volunteer tutoring a 41 year old man who can't even say the word "she" or "he"...He knows the alphabet (dropped out of school and never read at the age of 7) but can "sometimes" say beginning sounds. Do you think I should begin phoneme training or just have him memorize the sight words? Other suggestions? Thanks
Hey there! First of all, I want to commend the work you are doing, amazing! He's lucky to have someone like you in his corner :) I think that even at his age, you should go through a few different high frequency words a week, but always talk about whether or not the sounds "make sense" with each word. For instance, in the word "that" - the "th" makes a digraph, the "a" is the short a sound, and the "t" makes the /t/ sound. All of that is totally decodable! With a word like "one" or "from" though - there are sounds in those words that just don't match up to what we think it would be if we were only trying to decode it. (i.e. the "o" in "from" makes a short "u" sound instead of an "o" sound for some odd reason!) Combining this quick practice with some discussion will hopefully make it less about short term memorization and instead make it stick a bit more in the long run!
Hellooo. Thank you for this video. May I ask...is it safe to say that the phonological awareness has to do with hearing, and phonics has to do with connecting that which is heard, to print?
Can you please tell me that "t" is a grapheme (written form or phoneme) Or lower case letter? Because in our demos we says that its lower case letter "teee" and its sound is "t". and i m confused that is it letter or a sound?
Hi there! The sound itself /t/ is a phoneme. The grapheme that makes that sound is the letter "t." Here's a blog that may help - learningattheprimarypond.com/blog/the-top-5-phonics-definitions-all-teachers-should-know/
Im doing my thesis on Jolly phonics. It is said that this programme is systhematic. I've been Looking up what 'systehematic' is and I found a definition that mentions 'scope and sequence'. Now I m double confused, What is SCope and sequence? you mentioned these words too. Thnx
Systematic just means that there are systems in place to follow. One of those systems is using a scope and sequence which lays out exact skills/goals for students to follow over the course of time.
Hello thank you for this video. I just want to ask, where does the ability to understand or guess the gibberish fall into? Phonological awareness or Phonics? Or both? Thank you
There's this Instagram filter game called "guess the gibberish". I wanted to use that in my class activity and I want to know what language skill it develops. Phonics of phonological awareness?
Phonics is "a method of teaching people to read by correlating sounds with letters or groups of letters in an alphabetic writing system" and phonetics is "the study and classification of speech sounds."
Me, a dyslexic: yeah I get the machanics of each theory. But will never remember the names. I’m just gonna call it the “phonic thing in 3 categories: letters, words and syllables”. I don’t care if it isn’t strictly what a syllable is ok, I can explain what I mean. Next 😂 😂 😂
I want to say as well, this impacts hearing speech, even as an adult. You will just not even hear the sounds and your Brian makes up something to fill the gap. So I always have to repeat, in my own words, what I think someone means and ask if that’s what they mean. I can’t trust what I just heard lol, not all dyslexics have this I’m severely dyslexic lol
still too complicated. They all about the sound of words. Phonics is for kids; phonemic skills are for ordinary adults; phonological skills are for experts or comparing languages when learning another language.
Here's a blog I wrote that explains how phonological awareness relates to phonics - learningattheprimarypond.com/blog/how-your-phonological-awareness-instruction-should-connect-to-your-phonics-instruction/
Phonetic relates more to the pronunciation of sounds, but it can also involve letters. For instance, there are two different ways to pronounce /th/ - the voiced sound in "the" and the unvoiced sound in "thief." Phonics is the overall sound-symbol relationship in words.
queen you taught me more about the difference between these in 5 mins than a semester of college and 240 tutoring!!!
Your "eyes closed" comment did it for me! Phonics requires us to have our eyes OPEN so we can see the letters associated with sounds; whereas Phonemic awareness & phonological awareness do NOT require us to have our eyes open.

You're welcome!
You are amazing! I’ve spent the past 3 years of college confused about the difference and in just five minutes of you explaining it now finally understand. Thank you so much!!!
What would understanding the concept of silent letters be classified under?

Thanks a million. I can understand 90% now. Nearly 100%. Thanks so much, teacher.

Very helpful. I appreciate your easy-to-understand example and how you give the information in an easy way to understand with no room for confusion!
Glad it was helpful!!
This video was really helpful, thank you! Your eyes open or shut comment was so very clarifying!
I'm so glad!
Next time can you teach us in the order phonemic awareness, phonics and THEN phonological awareness? I got confused
"s" can also represent "sh" as in "sugar", and sometimes is silent, as in "island".
Confused 🤔
This is THE BEST explanation of this topic I have ever gotten. Thank you very much!!!
You're so welcome!
CONFUSING!
You're brilliant!!

Can you show how you identify phoneme for big word like ‘excited’?
Sure! Phonemes are the individual sounds in the word. So orally, think about how you'd break apart the word "excited" into its sounds. This one is a bit tricky because the "x" and the "c" kind of blend together into one sound, and you don't really hear the "c." So, I'd say the sounds are /e/ /x/ /ī/ /t/ //ĭ/ /d/

Thanks for the video! Can you recommend any book to go deeper into this topic? It would be a great support. All the best!
We just read "Reading Above the Fray" in our summer book club and loved it!

Phonics is for kids. Phonetics is for kids experts.

Hii mam I need your help
What can I help you with? :)
cufuse🤨
is phoneme=phonemics?
Yes, essentially! Phonemics usually refers to the study of phonemes.
@@learningattheprimarypond thank you!
honestly, it wasn't very helpful for me. But I really appreciate you trying
Bummer! Sorry you weren't able to get more out of the video!
Im about to take the RICA so here I am .
Confusing
Yes! The terms can definitely be confusing! Hoping the video provided some clarity.

Please try to speak slowly
CONFUSING!! the phonemic /ɅnbƏlivƏbƏl/ to the phonetic [ɅmbƏlivƏbƏl]? What rule is this ?
