Supports the Meaning Processor

Context Processor

Teacher Implications:

Students who have troubles with context processes with have trouble understanding the text.

refers to

The Context Processor interprets words that we have heard, have previously names, or partially identified.

Teachers should teach background information that students need to interpret what they have read.

It looks at language, experiences, and knowledge of concepts.

  • the sentence and sentence sequence in which a word is embedded
  • the concepts or events that are being discussed or reported in the text.

The Context Processor helps us understand the right meaning of a word. This is especially important because many words have many meanings or sound like other words that have different meanings.

The Four Part Processing Model for Word Recognition

Fluency

Meaning Processor

Phonological

information (sounds)

Orthographic

information (letter recognition)

The Meaning Processor stores word meanings by:

Other words in the same semantic field

Categories and concepts

The Meaning Processor makes meaning out of the sounds and letters and relates them to words

Examples of words in phrase context

The sounds, spelling, and syllables in the word

Meaningful parts

The Meaning Processor understands synonym relationships, roots and other morphemes, spelling patterns, common meaning associates, and connotations.

Implications for teachers:

  • Storing the inventory of words
  • Organizing the mental dictionary
  • Constructing meaning of new words

Children with meaning weaknesses will have weak vocabularies, limited knowledge of English, and weakness in verbal reasoning ability

Teachers should teach vocabulary with attention to all of the ways the Meaning Processor stores word meanings.

Meaning

Processor

Taken from LTRS, Module 1: the Challenge of Learning to Read (Learning Essentials for Teachers of Reading and Spelling) by Louisa C. Moats

Teacher Implications:

Children with orthographic weaknesses will struggle with sight words, have difficultly spelling, and will read slowly.

It mentally categorizes and identifies the phonemes in a language system.

Sounds

Visual System

It produces the speech sounds and syllable sequences in words.

Teachers should call attention to internal details of the printed words.

It compares and distinguishes words that sound similar.

It remembers and repeats the words in a phrase or the sounds in a word.

It retrieves specific words from the mental diction and pronounces them.

our own language and learn the sounds of another language

  • Perceive
  • Remember
  • Interpret
  • Produce

It holds the sounds of words in memory so that a word can be written down.

It takes apart the sounds in a word so that they can be matched with alphabetic symbols.

  • Letters
  • Punctuation Marks
  • Spaces
  • Letter Patterns

Teacher Implications:

Orthographic

Processor

Children who have difficulty often forget letters, have trouble blending sounds, and have trouble spelling.

Phonological

Processor

Teachers must teach phoneme identification, pronunciation, and awareness.

Recognized by

Prosody

Recognizes letters and formation of letters

The Phonological Processor is the place in the brain that understands that a combination of sounds create words. It also remembers those combinations.

Associates letters with speech sounds

Recognizes letter sequences and patterns

  • Imitate
  • Produce

Rise and fall of voice during phrasing

Fluently recognizes whole words

The Orthographic Processor is the place in the brain that is able to make sense out of the shapes of letters and symbols. It is able to identify them and match them to sounds.

  • Angles
