Whole Language Approach

- Psycholinguistic guessing game
3. • the idea of "whole" language has its
root in a range of theories of learning
called "holism".
4. Based on holism
- it is believed that learning small
chunks of language can never tell us
everything about how the entire
human mind works.
5. Whole Language Approach
• describes a literacy philosophy which
emphasizes that children should focus
on meaning and strategy instruction.
• focus on learning the complete
meaning of a word. You don't stress
the phonetic part of a sentence and
break it down.
6. • focus on making meaning in reading and
expressing meaning in writing
• constructivist approaches to knowledge
creation, emphasizing students' interpretations
of text and free expression of ideas in writing
• emphasis on high-quality and culturally-
diverse literature
• integrating literacy into other areas of the
curriculum, especially math, science, and
social studies
11. •Have the child follow along as you read aloud and then stop
reading; child must pick up reading aloud where you
dropped off.
•You read aloud at a normal pace; the child skims along and
follows your reading by paying attention to the beginnings
and endings of sentences and end punctuation.
•Child reads easy or familiar material and practices going
fast.
•Demonstrate an appropriate reading speed by gently
moving the child's hands across the lines of Braille.
•Practice fast page-turning exercises and activities which
can help develop good reading habits and faster reading.
12.
13. Books for beginner readers which support this
approach of learning to read are known as authentic
text early reader books. They contain short
sentences written in simple language with some
repeated phrases. . Your child uses the pictures to
help guess difficult words and through repeated
readings starts to recognize words by sight.
14.
15. •They have a better understanding of what they are reading, and a
more interesting and creative approach to reading.
•There are no lists of sounds or rules to be learnt.
•Children are able to observe real reading behaviors in non-
threatening situations and to imitate such behaviors without fear
or shame.
•Children are exposed to outstanding children’s literature from the
very beginning of their reading experiences. They are not asked to
read artificially simplified or contrived language. This makes
reading more interesting for them.
16. Disadvantages
Students who are taught using a pure
whole language approach without a
phonics component have a difficult time
learning how to spell.
Students misinterpreting words.
17. Disadvantages
Never learning how to sound out unknown
words and not comprehending the basics of
the English language.
Children with limited ability to memorize a
sequence of words.
19. Sub-lexical reading
involves teaching reading by associating
characters/groups of characters with
sounds or by using Phonics learning &
teaching methodology.
20. Lexical reading
involves acquiring words/ phrases
without attention to the characters or
groups of characters that compose them
or by using Whole Language learning &
teaching methodology.
