5 Major Components of Reading
Playing with Sound
Phonological Processing is the ability to identify and manipulate the individual sounds in language. |
Decoding
Students need to learn how to figure out what a word says before they can start making meaning. |
Reading Fluency
Decoding needs to become an automatic skill where a person builds the ability to instantly recognize words. But word recognition is not enough! Connections need to be made. |
Vocabulary
Provide your student with a language rich environment, and watch their eyes light up with understand-ing! |
Comprehension
Comprehension is putting it all together. Students who struggle with reading comprehension need to learn how to ask questions! |
