[NLA] Phoneme Awareness is the Key

[Awilderast@aol.com]

George,

Do you teach your ABE learners phonemic awareness?  Phonemic awareness = 
knowledge of speech sounds.  Word analysis matches speech sounds to letters.  
A person's culture, support available, scaffolding, whatever, has nothing to 
do with this alphabetic principle.  What do you substitute?  What do you 
teach to your ABE students?
