  • Fry 1000 Instant Words: Free Flash Cards and Word Lists for Teachers
    Fry 1000 Instant Words: Free Flash Cards and Word Lists For Teachers Fry 1000 Instant Words Bulletin Board Display Banner and 26 Letter Cards The Fry 1000 Instant Words are a list of the most common words used for teaching reading, writing, and spelling. These high frequency words should be recognized instantly by readers. Dr. Edward B. Fry's Instant Words (which are often referred to as the "Fry Words") are the most common words used in English ranked in order of frequency. In 1996, Dr. Fry expanded on Dolch's sight word lists and research and published a book titled "Fry 1000 Instant Words." In his research, Dr. Fry found the following results: 25 words make up approximately 1/3 of all items published. 100 words comprise approximately 1/2 of all of the words found in publications. 300 words make up approximately 65% of all written material. Over half of every newspaper article, textbook, children's story, and novel is composed of these 300 words. It is difficult to write a sentence without using several of the first 300 words in the Fry 1000 Instant Words List. Consequently, students need to be able to read the first 300 Instant Words without a moment's hesitation. Do not bother copying these 3 lists. You will be able to download free copies of these lists, plus 7 additional lists that are not shown (words 301 - 1000), using the free download links that are found later on this page. In addition to these 10 free lists of Fry's sight words, I have created 1000 color coded flashcards for all of the Fry 1000 Instant Words.

  • A LOOK at MISSION STATEMENTS of SELECTED ASIAN COMPANIES Purpose Mission Statements Are Important Corporate Communication Tool for Organizations
    Journal of the Research Society of Pakistan Volume No. 54, Issue No. 2 (July - December, 2017) Muhammad Khalid Khan * Ghulam Ali Bhatti** Ishfaq Ahmed*** Talat Islam **** READABILITY AND UNDERSTANDABILITY: A LOOK AT MISSION STATEMENTS OF SELECTED ASIAN COMPANIES Purpose Mission statements are important corporate communication tool for organizations. In order to be purposeful it should be comprehendible and easy to understand. Considering the importance of mission statements readability, this research endeavor is aimed to judge the level of readability and understandability of mission statements of Asian companies listed in Fortune 500 for the year of 2015. Design/Methodology Asian companies listed in Global Fortune-500 for 2014-2015 were taken. There were 197 Asian companies present in that listing. In order to fetch mission statements of those companies their websites were visited from Feb, 2016-April 2016. Mission statements were analyzed for their readability and understandability by estimating total sentences, total words and number of words per sentence (simple counting technique) and following tests: automated readability index, Coleman Liau index, Flasch Reading Ease tests and Gunning fog index. Findings It is evident from the study that mission statements of Asian companies are long and difficult to read and understand. Trading sector is found to have shortest mission statement, with ease of reading and understandability, when compared to other sectors. Research Limitations/Future Directions Future researchers should use other sophisticated evaluation tools and the analysis should also include the influence of country culture on contents and traits of mission statements. * Dr. Muhammad Khalid Khan, Assistant Professor, Registrar & Director HR, University of the Punjab, Lahore, Pakistan, [email protected].

  • Building the Alphabetic Principle in Young Children Who Are Deaf Or Hard of Hearing
    The Volta Review, Volume 109(2-3), Fall/Winter 2009, 87–119 Building the Alphabetic Principle in Young Children Who Are Deaf or Hard of Hearing Jessica Page Bergeron , M.E.D. ; Amy R. Lederberg, Ph.D. ; Susan R. Easterbrooks, Ed.D. ; Elizabeth Malone Miller, M.S. ; and Carol McDonald Connor, Ph.D. Acquisition of phoneme-grapheme correspondences, a key concept of the alphabetic principle, was examined in young children who are deaf or hard of hearing (DHH) using a semantic association strategy embedded in two interventions, the Children’s Early Intervention and Foundations for Literacy. Single-subject design experiments using multiple baselines across content were used to examine the functional relation- ship between student outcomes and the intervention provided. Only students who were able to identify spoken words were included in the studies. Study One was con- ducted with 5 children 3.10–7.10 years of age in oral or signing programs. Study Two was conducted with 5 children 3.10–4.5 years of age in an oral program. All children acquired taught phoneme-grapheme correspondences. These findings provide much- needed evidence that children who are DHH and who have some speech perception abilities can learn critical phoneme-grapheme correspondences through explicit audi- tory skill instruction with language and visual support.

  • Spelling Bee Rules
    2021 Rules for Local Spelling Bees Preface The Scripps National Spelling Bee (SNSB) encourages spellers, parents, teachers and spelling bee officials to read these rules prior to any local spelling bee. The SNSB defines a local spelling bee as any spelling bee other than its 2021 championship spelling bee (“national finals”). Spellers and spellers’ parents and teachers should check with their local spelling bee officials for the rules in effect in their area, as local spelling bee officials are encouraged but not required to use these rules. Spelling bee officials include the pronouncer, judges, coordinator and sponsor. While local spelling bee officials have the prerogative to amend Rules 2 through 11, amendment(s) — particularly any amendment(s) to the end-of-bee procedure — should be undertaken only with careful consideration of the various outcomes that may result from the amendment(s). The SNSB has no authority over the conduct of local spelling bees and will not render judgments relating to their conduct or outcomes. Individuals bearing complaints about local spelling bees should register their concerns with local spelling bee officials. DECISIONS OF LOCAL SPELLING BEE OFFICIALS ARE FINAL. These Rules for Local Spelling Bees are not the rules in effect at the national finals. When a local spelling bee official says, “We use the national rules,” he or she is probably indicating that the Rules for Local Spelling Bees are in effect. The national finals operate under a significantly different set of rules called the Contest Rules of the 2021 Scripps National Spelling Bee. These rules contain provisions that are specific to unique conditions at the national finals.

  • Reconsidering the Evidence That Systematic Phonics Is More Effective Than
    Running head: SYSTEMATIC PHONICS 1 Reconsidering the evidence that systematic phonics is more effective than alternative methods of reading instruction Jeffrey S. Bowers University of Bristol Author Note: Jeffrey S. Bowers, School of Experimental Psychology, University of Bristol. I would like to thank Patricia Bowers, Peter Bowers, Danielle Colenbrander, Rebecca Marsh, Kathy Rastle, Robert Ross, and Gail Venable for comments on previous drafts and Abla Hatherell for help on compiling the data for Figures 2-3. Correspondence concerning this article should be addressed to Jeffrey S Bowers, School of Experimental Psychology, 12a Priory Road, Bristol, BS8-1TU. Email j.bow- [email protected] Personal website: https://jeffbowers.blogs.ilrt.org/research/ SYSTEMATIC PHONICS 2 Abstract There is a widespread consensus in the research community that reading instruction in Eng- lish should first systematically teach children letter (grapheme) to sound (phoneme) corre- spondences rather than meaning-based reading approaches such as whole language instruc- tion. That is, initial reading instruction should emphasize systematic phonics. In this system- atic review I show this conclusion is not justified. First, I review and critique experimental studies that have assessed the efficacy of systematic phonics as summarized in 12 meta-anal- yses and two government reports. Not only are the results and conclusions of these reports often mischaracterized in the literature, there are serious flaws in analyses that undermine the conclusions that are drawn. Second, I review non-experimental studies have been used to support the conclusion that systematic phonics is most effective. Again, I show the conclu- sions are not justified. These findings should not be taken as an argument in support of whole language and related methods, but rather, highlight the need for alternative approaches to reading instruction.
