SO, IF THEY DON’T “SOUND-IT-OUT”, WHAT DO THEY DO?

sound!Reread and try again!Skip the word, read on, and go

know!Sound it out IN CHUNKS!

BUT WHY??
IN SCHOOL READING INSTRUCTION LOOKS LIKE…

ESSENTIAL COMPONENTS OF READING
Phonemic awareness- hearing sounds in words Phonics-sound/letter relationship (attaching a
letter or chunk to a specific sound) Fluency- reading accurately, effortlessly, and
automatically. Fluent readers attend to punctuation, use expression, and read smoothly at a good pace. Fast DOES NOT equal fluent!
Vocabulary- understanding what words say and what they mean in the text
Comprehension- This is the ULTIMATE GOAL of reading. Good readers: make connections, predict, question, monitor, visualize, and summarize.
AS A PARENT, WHAT CAN YOU DO? Read to your child! (yes, even after they know how to
read!!) Model good reading! When your child is reading to you, make sure the book
is not too hard…Use the 5 Finger Rule! Give your child time to figure it out…don’t correct right
away. Give your child specific praise at the end of the book
that he or she reads. (I like the way you…) Discuss books with your child. Talk about characters,
problems, and solutions. Help your child to make connections with text.
Point out words in your child’s environment. Practice reading these words.
Help your child memorize sight words! This just takes practice!
