Congratulations to our very own 1st grade teacher, Ms. Jessica Jones. It isn't everyday one of our very own is published in a scholarly journal! Ms. Jones collaborated with colleagues at UNO to write research on phonics in small group settings. Her article was accepted in the Indiana State Literacy Journal, Spring 2023 edition. Ms. Jones is a graduate of the UNO CADRE and entering her third year of teaching for Northeast Elementary in the fall of 2023. The full ink to the article can be found here: https://drive.google.com/file/d/16LhdRxYKIloY6rWV7pwWgasvTxGoFc4U/view?usp=sharing
The title of the article is: "The Use of Phoneme Grapheme Mapping to Improve Decoding in the Primary Classroom"
A short summary is as follows:
The article discusses the importance of phonemic awareness, which refers to the ability to recognize and manipulate the smallest units of sounds, known as phonemes. Without this ability, decoding words can be extremely difficult or even impossible. The study aimed to investigate whether teaching phoneme-grapheme mapping strategies in a small group setting, along with explicit feedback, would enhance students' decoding abilities.
Please congratulate Ms. Jones the next time you see her on this wonderful accomplishment!
