SPCH 61 9:00 – 10:30 TTH 12/10/2015 Solitude is not the absence of Love Without solitude, Love will not stay long by your side. Because Love needs to rest as well, so that it can journey through the heavens and reveal itself in other forms. Without solitude, no plant or animal can survive, no soil can remain productive for any length of time, no child can learn about life, no artist can create, no work can grow and be transformed. Solitude is not the absence of Love, but its complement. Solitude is not the absence of company, but the moment when our soul is free to speak to us and help us decide what to do with our life. Therefore, blessed are those who...

...Validating the Use of the Evaluation Tool of Children’s Handwriting–Manuscript to Identify Handwriting Difficulties and Detect Change in School-Age Children Marie Brossard-Racine, Barbara Mazer, Marilyse Julien, Annette Majnemer KEY WORDS discriminant analysis handwriting occupational therapy child validation studies In this study we sought to validate the discriminant ability of the Evaluation Tool of Children’s Handwriting– Manuscript in identifying children in Grades 2–3 with handwriting difficulties and to determine the percentage of change in handwriting scores that is consistently detected by occupational therapists. Thirty-four therapists judged and compared 35 pairs of handwriting samples. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) analyses were performed to determine (1) the optimal cutoff values for word and letter legibility scores that identify children with handwriting difficulties who should be seen in rehabilitation and (2) the minimal clinically important difference (MCID) in handwriting scores. Cutoff scores of 75.0% for total word legibility and 76.0% for total letter legibility were found to provide excellent levels of accuracy. A difference of 10.0%–12.5% for total word legibility and 6.0%–7.0% for total letter legibility were found as the MCID. Study findings enable therapists to quantitatively support clinical judgment when evaluating handwriting. Brossard-Racine, M., Mazer, B., Julien, M., & Majnemer, A. (2012). Validating the use of...

...screamed Jane. 2. To emphasize a point: My mother-in-law's rants make me furious ! Comma, Semicolon and Colon The comma, semicolon and colon are often misused because they all can indicate a pause in a series. The comma is used to show a separation of ideas or elements within the structure of a sentence. Additionally, it is used in letter writing after the salutation and closing. • Separating elements within sentences: Suzi wanted the black , green , and blue shoes. • Letter Salutations: Dear Uncle John , • Separation of two complete sentences: We went to the movies , and we went to the beach. The semicolon (;) is used to connect independent clauses. It shows a closer relationship between the clauses than a period would show. For example: John was hurt ; he knew she only said it to upset him. A colon (:) has two main uses: * The first is after a word introducing a quotation, an explanation, an example, or a series. It is also often used after the salutation of a business letter. * The second is within time expressions. Within time, it is used to separate out the hour and minute: 12 : 15 p.m. Dash and the Hyphen Two kinds of dashes are used throughout written communications. They are the endash and the emdash.

Most professional correspondence should have a letterhead, date, address and salutation. Additionally, the main elements of your business letter should be as follows: Opening: This is the reason for writing the letter. It should be direct and apparent, It is in this paragraph where you are delivering important news or requesting something. Body: The body of the letter develops the information presented in the opening. This is where you are able to go into a more detailed description of what you are asking from your correspondent. Closing: This is the end of your letter. It should be where you are leading the recipient of your letter toward a specific response or a course of action. This section might include suggestions or statements. Don't forget to finish your letter with a complimentary closing and a signature. II.

...kids learn more words and to help them spell better. Scrabble is a word building multi user game that consists of tiles which are distributed to each player. The game can have two to four players. The board game is a 15 by 15 square grid. Throughout the board there are tiles that have double letter score, triple letter score, double word score, and triple word score. Generally those special tiles are found on all the sides of the board and randomly throughout the board. The are a total of 98 tiles which are alphabets from A to Z and two anonymous letters which are blank tiles. Each alphabet is given a score and the blank letter is given zero points. Each letter has different values which depends on the frequency of its usage. The blank tile can be substitute for any letter. The players are given seven tiles which people draw out of the bag. New tiles will be placed on your rack, based on how many tiles you put on the board. Each letter has different point values, so the strategy of the game is to play words with high scoring letter combinations. When playing the game a dictionary can be used to see if your word or your players word is a real word. If you can’t make a word with your letters you have the option to pass your turn or exchange your tiles with different ones in the bag. It is important to have a strong vocabulary to get far in this game. Practice is also an essential element to strong play. Everytime I play my words that I use are normally ...

...Word Formulation 1 Effects of the Presence of Flashcards with Jumbled Letters to the Word Formulation of Grade 3 Pupils in Sta. Cruz Elementary School, Sto. Tomas, Batangas Joyce Trissia B. Mendoza Aliza Joana D. Cuenca PSY 106, BS Psychology 321 Mrs. Marjorie S. Villa Word Formulation 2 Abstract This experiment looked at the Effects of the Presence of Flashcards with Jumbled Letters to the Word Formulation. The participants has a total population of 48 Grade 3 pupils at Sta. Cruz Elementary School in Sto. Tomas, Batangas. The population is divided into two groups by randomization: 24 pupils in the control group and 24 pupils in the experimental group since the researchers used the between subjects design. The control group received the normal way of giving spelling activity, the oral dictation of words. The experimental group received also the oral dictation of words but they are also shown flashcards with jumbled letters of the words that are being spelled. The computed value of t was – 1.7 and is less than the tabular value, 2.021 with df of 46 and the α of .05. This means that the presence of flashcards with jumbled letters has no significant effect on the word formulation of Grade 3 pupils.

...these skills and strategies, and the purpose of both will be explained. Different assessment options will also be discussed. Introduction Children begin learning sounds and words from the time they are born. They are even exposed to hearing their mother’s voice while still in the womb. It is important that children are exposed to letters and words at an early age as well as have books read to them. These are factors in learning how to read. Two of the most important elements that emerging readers need to know in order to successfully read are phonemic awareness and phonics. These two concepts are different, but must work as a team for one to read. In the beginning grades, teachers must concentrate greatly on both of these concepts to make sure that the students have the foundation that is needed in order to begin reading. In this paper, definitions of both phonemic awareness and phonics will be shared along with strategies that can be explicitly taught to assist in learning how to read. The sequence of developmental stages, the appropriate ages for both concepts, and the purpose for using them will also be highlighted. Last, assessments examples that can be used will complete the paper. Phonemic Awareness Phonemic awareness can be described as the concentration of oral speech. Letter sounds can be manipulated through speaking. Phonemic awareness is the foundation for phonics and spelling (Gail Tompkins, 2014). When...

...develop reading acquisition. Jolly Phonics is a technique that provides different tools to teach children with reading development, such as recognition of words, combination with image and words, different stages of reading skills in which children starts develop vocabulary sound and their meanings. This is an effective multi-sensory framework to phonics that uses many types of learning styles, including visual and auditory techniques. According to Frith (1985), reading acquisition progresses through phases beginning with forming vocabulary of words enabling children to reading familiar words, by recognising a whole word through its features (often done by varies techniques including called flash-card), and building visual connection between letters and objects. For example, the phoneme to graphemes, a ‘c’ to report ‘carrot’. Jolly phonics is a creative, unique and fun method that teaches children how to read, for instances, by showing a letter or letters combination that presents sound. There are also motions used to help children learn the letter; for example, a child may be taught to move an arm whilst reading ‘snake’. These strategies may enhance children’s competence to recognise words and sounds. It could be argued that the more children rely on cues from the word rather than context, the better it is to recognise words. Summary of supporting evidence Frith adapted Marsh’s theory of reading...
