dc.description.abstract	When the Ministry of Education in Jordan set its goals behind introducing English language as early as from the first grade, their expectations for their EFL learners were to show understanding and use of simple words through different activities; a goal that heavily depends on developing phonological awareness. This study explored 44 Jordanian first graders’ possession of phonological awareness. The Yopp Singer Test (1995) was administered in April and May, 2010. Descriptive statistics showed emerging awareness. Calls for intervention programs and recommendations were presented accordingly.	en_US
