Phonemic awareness is necessary for students to be successful in reading. Reading is a very complicated concept for students to learn but the basis of this is phonics. Many of the ideas mentioned during this video I agree with but the quote that resonated with me most was when the narrator said "Phonemic Awareness is central in learning to read and spell."

I might use this phonemic assessment type during my tutorial sessions with my student on very complex words found in fifth grade texts. By the time students get to fifth grade they have a very strong phonics background but it doesn't hurt to have students go back to these roots and practice how to sound words out based on their phonics awareness. I might give my tutee a four syllable word for an assessment like this.
