Guest tinkerbell Posted November 17, 2012 Share Posted November 17, 2012 do you think it means they sound out each word as they read along with you or mark make ....eg I am going to buy some sweets ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted November 17, 2012 Share Posted November 17, 2012 it means saying the words aloud as they write, which they will have seen us modelling. it may be that they write letters/letter-like shapes/wiggles etc or use sounds appropriately x Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AnonyMouse_21338 Posted November 17, 2012 Share Posted November 17, 2012 does it mean that each squiggle represents a word ..and they say each word as they squiggle ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AnonyMouse_3307 Posted November 17, 2012 Share Posted November 17, 2012 Oral speech is continuous sound. In order to write, the child has to hear the individual word units and understand that each unit is a whole and separate "thing". Cx Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
