  • How and Why Children Learn About Sounds, Letters, and Words in Reading Recovery Lessons
    DOCUMENT RESUME ED 437 616 CS 013 828 AUTHOR Fountas, Irene C.; Pinnell, Gay Su TITLE How and Why Children Learn about Sounds, Letters, and Words in Reading Recovery Lessons. INSTITUTION Reading Recovery Council of North America, Columbus, OH. PUB DATE 1999-00-00 NOTE 12p. PUB TYPE Guides Classroom Teacher (052) Journal Articles (080) Reports Research (143) JOURNAL CIT Running Record; v12 n1 p1-6,10-11,13-14 Fall 1999 EDRS PRICE MF01/PC01 Plus Postage. DESCRIPTORS *Beginning Reading; Classroom Research; *Classroom Techniques; Learning Activities; *Learning Processes; *Literacy; Primary Education; Word Recognition IDENTIFIERS Lesson Structure; *Orthography; Phonological Awareness; *Reading Recovery Projects; Word Learning ABSTRACT This article takes a look at Reading Recovery lesson elements to compare the teaching and learning within the lesson components to several areas of learning that have been identified at the national level as important to children's literacy learning. The lesson elements examined in the article are: (1) phonological awareness; (2) orthographic awareness; and (3) word learning in reading and writing. The article states that the first two areas of knowledge, and the way they are interrelated, contribute to young children's growth in the ability to solve words while reading for meaning, while the third area strongly supports learning in the first two areas and also helps to accelerate early learning in literacy. These elements together contribute to the child's development of a larger process in which the reader uses "in-the-head" strategies in an efficient way to access and orchestrate a variety of information, including meaning and language systems, with the visual and phonological information in print.

    UNITED STATES DEPARTMENT OF THE INTERIOR GEOLOGICAL SURVEY Map Showing Metal 1iferous and Selected Nonmetal 1iferous Mineral Deposits, Sward Peninsula, Alaska Compiled b) Travis Hudson, Martha L. Mi11 er, and William J. Pickthorn Open-file report 77-7968 1977 This report is prel iminary and has not been edited or reviwed for confomity with Geological Survey standards CONTENTS Page Explanatory Note ........................................ 1 Table Headings ------------------------------------------------- 2 Table of Metal1iferous and Selected Nonmetal liferous Deposits -- 4 EXPLANATORY NOTE The map and accompanying table is one of several data components prepared as a foundation for evaluating the mineral resource potential of Seward Peninsula. The data included here are based on pub1 ished 1iterature, consul tations with gedogists fami 1iar with Seward Penin- sula mineral deposits, and the f irst-hand knowledge of the sen4 or author. Two U. S. Geological Survey quadrangle report series, metal 1ic m-Sneral resource maps and summaries of references to mineral occurrences, by Ee H. Cobb, (1972 a-f, 1975 a-c, 1976) have been our principal guides to the mineral deposit data. U. S. Bureau of Mines maps depicting the location of mining claims have been used to identify and locate some deposits not known elsewhere in the 1i terature. The compilation in- cludes the great majority of known mineral deposits on Seward Penin- sula; a few generally or local ly known deposits are probably not in- cluded . As used in this report, Smrd Peninsula extends westward from long1tude 161" to Cape Prince of Hales, is bordered to the south by Bering Sea-Norton Bay, and to the north by Kotzebue Sound-Eschscholtz Bay.

  • USC Dornsife in the News Archive - 2020
    USC Dornsife in the News Archive - 2020 December December 18, 2020 Time featured an op-ed by Peter C. Mancall of the USC Dornsife College on how America keeps adapting the story of the Pilgrims at Plymouth. "After the establishment of the United States, historians and politicians cemented Plymouth in the script of American nationalism, minimizing its well-documented problems and magnifying its alleged wonder," he wrote. He was also featured in Yahoo News (via The Conversation) on why the Puritans cracked down on celebrating Christmas. The New Yorker featured an article by Carol Muske-Dukes of the USC Dornsife College on the writer John Cheever's visit to Sing Sing Correctional Facility. "I didn’t fully grasp, till I thought about it later, how the Q&A at Sing Sing, for Cheever, must have been like facing a roomful of his own characters, suddenly eerily alive, talking back to him, pointing their fingers," she wrote. Yahoo News (via Patch) featured research by Gema Zamarro of the USC Dornsife College's Center for Economic and Social Research on the disproportionate impact the pandemic has had on working women and mothers. "This could have important implications for the recovery of the economy and represent a significant step back in terms of gender equality," she said. December 17, 2020 MarketWatch cited research from the USC Dornsife College's Center for Economic and Social Research on COVID-19's impact on college students of color.
