STEPS TO READING PROFICIENCY

PHONEMIC AWARENESS & SOUND SYMBOL ASSOCIATION

Sound Match Training Letter-Sound Match Training

PHONICS AND DECODING: VISUAL MATCH

• Students identify and match high frequency spelling patterns of consonants and vowels in order to facilitate accurate and fluent decoding

PHONICS AND DECODING: AUDITORY-VISUAL MATCH

• Students identify and associate the sounds of written high frequency patterns of consonants and vowels

• Student will be training to a high degree of accuracy and consistency of response times, improving fluency and decoding of text

AUTOMATICITY

• Core competency• Only Academy of READING measures both

accuracy and pace• Part of the skill mastery criteria• Once skills are automatized, students move

on to master higher-order tasks
