Speech Therapy -> Phonology -> Phonological Awareness

Phonological Awareness

Phonological awareness is the foundation for learning to read. It is the ability to recognize and work with sounds in spoken language; an individual's awareness of the phonological structure, or sound structure, of words. Phonological awareness is an important and reliable predictor of later reading ability.
