Phonological awareness refers to the understanding of the relationship between sounds and the letters that represent them in written language. It includes the ability to recognize and manipulate sounds in spoken language, to understand that words are made up of syllables and sounds, and to use this understanding to read and write. Phonemic awareness is a subset of phonological awareness that specifically focuses on the ability to identify and manipulate individual sounds (phonemes) in words. Dyscalculia is a learning disability that affects a person's ability to understand numbers and math concepts, while dyslexia is a learning disability that affects a person's ability to read and spell.
