Senechal, Monique; Ouellette, Gene; Pagan, Stephanie; Lever, Rosemary – Reading and Writing: An Interdisciplinary Journal, 2012
The goal of the present intervention research was to test whether guided invented spelling would facilitate entry into reading for at-risk kindergarten children. The 56 participating children had poor phoneme awareness, and as such, were at risk of having difficulty acquiring reading skills. Children were randomly assigned to one of three training…

Savage, Robert; Abrami, Philip C.; Piquette, Noella; Wood, Eileen; Deleveaux, Gia; Sanghera-Sidhu, Sukhbinder; Burgos, Giovani – Journal of Educational Psychology, 2013
This report describes a cluster randomized control trial (RCT) intervention study of the effectiveness of the ABRACADABRA (ABRA) Web-based literacy system using a classroom-level RCT intervention with 1,067 children in 74 kindergarten and Grade 1 or Grade 1/2 classrooms across Canada. The authors closely followed the CONSORT criteria for executing…

Yeh, Stuart S. – Early Childhood Research Quarterly, 2003
Several research studies linking early phonemic awareness to the prevention of later reading difficulties strongly suggest that phoneme segmentation and blending, rather than rhyming and alliteration abilities, are the key aspects of phonemic awareness that are related to the prevention of difficulties. Yet there is a persistent belief among many…

Hecht, Steven A.; Close, Linda – Journal of Experimental Child Psychology, 2002
Investigated factors that predicted variability in responses to analytic and synthetic phonemic awareness training with kindergartners living in poverty. Found that spelling skills were the most consistent predictor of variability in phonemic awareness in response to instruction. Amount of exposure children had to the intervention contributed to…

Walton, Patrick D.; Bowden, Michael E.; Kurtz, Shelly L.; Angus, Mary – Reading and Writing: An Interdisciplinary Journal, 2001
Examines the utility of teaching reading using rime-based reading strategies with prereaders. Measures rhyming, phoneme identity, letter-sound knowledge, phonological working memory, First Nations language speaking ability, and reading. Concludes that progress in phonological awareness and word reading can be enhanced in prereaders by adding…

Arra, Christopher T.; Aaron, P. G. – Psychology in the Schools, 2001
Two studies compare phonology-based instructional strategies designed for improving spelling skills of elementary school children against instruction strategies that rely only on visual exposure of words. In both studies, posttests showed that children taught through psycholinguistic and phoneme awareness methods significantly outperformed the…

Johnston, Rhona S.; Watson, Joyce E. – Reading and Writing: An Interdisciplinary Journal, 2004
In Experiment 1, it was found that 5-year-old new school entrants taught by a synthetic phonics method had better reading, spelling and phonemic awareness than two groups taught analytic phonics. The synthetic phonics children were the only ones that could read by analogy, and they also showed better reading of irregular words and nonwords. For…

Patricia F. Vadasy; Elizabeth A. Sanders; Julia A. Peyton – Remedial and Special Education, 2006
Two studies--one quasi-experimental and one randomized experiment--were designed to evaluate the effectiveness of supplemental instruction in structural analysis and oral reading practice for second- and third-grade students with below-average word reading skills. Individual instruction was provided by trained paraeducators in single- and…

Vadasy, Patricia F.; Sanders, Elizabeth A.; Peyton, Julia A. – Journal of Educational Psychology, 2006
The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effectiveness of code-oriented supplemental instruction for kindergarten students at risk for reading difficulties. Paraeducators were trained to provide 18 weeks of explicit instruction in phonemic skills and the alphabetic code. Students identified by their teachers meeting study eligibility criteria…

Schwartz, Robert M. – Journal of Educational Psychology, 2005
This study investigated the effectiveness and efficiency of the Reading Recovery early intervention. At-risk 1st-grade students were randomly assigned to receive the intervention during the 1st or 2nd half of the school year. High-average and low-average students from the same classrooms provided additional comparisons. Thirty-seven teachers from…

Fuchs, Douglas; Fuchs, Lynn S.; Thompson, Anneke; Al Otaiba, Stephanie; Yen, Loulee; Yang, Nancy J.; Braun, Mary; O'Connor, Rollanda E. – Exceptional Children, 2002
A study explored the effectiveness and feasibility of phonological awareness (PA) training with and without beginning decoding components for 25 kindergartners with disabilities in inclusive schools. Students with special needs participating in PA with beginning decoding instruction did better than those just receiving PA and controls. (Contains…

Vaughn, Sharon; Cirino, Paul T.; Linan-Thompson, Sylvia; Mathes, Patricia G.; Carlson, Coleen D.; Hagan, Eisa Cardenas; Pollard-Durodola, Sharolyn D.; Fletcher, Jack M.; Francis, David J. – American Educational Research Journal, 2006
Two studies of Grade 1 reading interventions for English-language (EL) learners at risk for reading problems were conducted. Two samples of EL students were randomly assigned to a treatment or untreated comparison group on the basis of their language of instruction for core reading (i.e., Spanish or English). In all, 91 students completed the…

Majsterek, David J.; Shorr, David N.; Erion, Virginia L. – Child Study Journal, 2000
Investigated the effect of developmentally appropriate literacy interventions integrated into circle time in a Head Start setting on the detection of rhyme by 4-5 year olds. Found that the group receiving phonological-awareness treatment performed better on a rhyme detection test than the semantic intervention group. (JPB)

O'Connor, Rollanda E. – Learning Disabilities Research and Practice, 1999
A study involving 10 kindergarten teachers found that kindergarten children whose teachers learned to implement phonological and print awareness activities performed better than children in control classes on phonological and literacy measures, with those in classes of teachers with more intensive professional development achieving the highest…

Blachman, Benita A.; Schatschneider, Christopher; Fletcher, Jack M.; Francis, David J.; Clonan, Sheila M.; Shaywitz, Bennett A.; Shaywitz, Sally E. – Journal of Educational Psychology, 2004
Second- and 3rd-grade children with poor word-level skills were randomly assigned to 8 months of explicit instruction emphasizing the phonologic and orthographic connections in words and text-based reading or to remedial reading programs provided by the schools. At posttest, treatment children showed significantly greater gains than control…
