![]() Encoding uses individual sounds or phonemes to build words. Encoding: Louisa Moates shows that encoding is the exact opposite of decoding.Decoding: From Reading Horizons: “Decoding is the process of translating print into speech by rapidly matching a letter or combination of letters (graphemes) to their sounds (phonemes) and recognizing the patterns that make syllables and words.”.phonic lessons consist of instruction in initial and final sounds of consonants short and long vowel sounds consonant blends (e.g., cr-, srp-,-nd) consonant digraphs (e.g., ch, th, ng) silent consonants (e.g., wr, kn, -mb) and syllabication.” ( Foorman et al., 2003, p. Phonics from Foorman and colleagues: “Most programs teach from the traditional perspective of grapheme-to-phoneme correspondence rules….Fortunately, vowel clustering succeeds where phonics fails. I teach many children to read who have failed with phonics, balanced literacy, and whole language. Most of the children who come to my reading clinics are failing because of whole language and phonics. Trust me, the fact that we have been able to use vowel clustering to move children up 4 grade levels in reading in one year has absolutely nothing to do with phonics rules. Phonics does use decoding and encoding, but so does vowel clustering and many other teaching methods. Decoding and encoding are not a form of phonics, nor are they used just with phonics. ![]() ![]() A phonics enthusiast recently tried to claim that decoding and encoding were just another form of phonics. ![]()
