According to Freeman and Freeman, (2004) there are two views of reading instruction that correspond to the distinction between learning and acquisition. These two views are the word recognition view and the sociopsycholinguistic view. Even though, they both differ greatly when it comes to how each form of instruction is delivered in the classroom, the overall goal of each view is the same. This end result being that the instruction will lead to a proficient, active reader.
Word Recognition View-
GOAL-
-Students are taught directly a variety of reading strategies and skills to help them decode words and comprehend the meaning behind the text.
METHOD-
-Students are taught phonics rules to help them decode and sound out words.
- Students are taught a set of sight words that do not follow phonics rules
- Students learn how to break apart words into chunks to identify them
CLASSROOM ACTIVITY-
- Students will learn the definition of vocabulary words prior to reading a selected text.
- Teacher will have a student read orally to listen for miscues and assist student with words they may not know.
Sociopsycholinguistic View-
GOAL-
- Students use connections, background knowledge, and cues from three language systems to construct meaning from a text.
METHOD-
-Students are taught how to tap into their own experiences and background knowledge to make meaning of text
- Through the repetition of familiar text, students will make the connection between oral reading and the print of the familiar text
- Students will use graphophonics as just one of three language cueing systems to gain meaning from a text and will study word parts only during linguistic investigations.
CLASSROOM ACTIVITY-
- Students will read to acquire vocabulary by encountering words in the context.
- Students will read silently using the strategies the teacher has taught the students to make meaning from a text.
