1 Portuguese are generally known as explorers, thanks to Vasco da Gama, Henry the Navigator, Bartolomeu Dias, Pedro Alvares Cabral and FernÃ£o de MagalhÃ£es, among others.  References to their wine (âportoâ), Fado music or sardines are also typical, as are their beaches.
Analytical phonics-an approach associated with the teaching of reading in which the phonemes associated with particular graphemes are not pronounced in isolation. Children identify (analyse) the common phoneme in a set of words in which each word contains the phoneme under study.
As the name suggests, this phonics strategy teaches students to read through analogy-through the learning of onsets and rimes where a student learns unfamiliar words by recognizing similarities between words. Onsets are the beginnings of words, and rimes are the ending parts, which follow the onset.
