READING
It is difficult to learn to read when the words don’t stand still. Can you imagine what it is like to read when the words and letters move up and down on the page? It helps to use my finger or ruler to keep my place so I can read.
One of the key concepts is quantum entanglement, which describes a situation where multiple particles are associated in such a way that measuring the quantum state of one particle also places constraints on the measurements of the other particles. This is best exemplified by the EPR Paradox. Though originally a thought experiment, this has now been confirmed experimentally through tests of something known as Bell's Theorem.
WORD IDENTIFICATION, FLUENCY, AND COMPREHENSION GO HAND IN HAND- WHEN ONE
PIECE OF THE PUZZLE IS WEAK THE OTHER PIECES SUFFER.

EFFECTIVE READING INSTRUCTION
Teach phonemic awareness
Phonics or word study explicitly and
directly
Provide opportunities to apply skills in reading and writing connected text
With integrated instruction in fluency, vocabulary, and comprehension
Phonemic the ability to hear,
identify, and manipulate individual sounds-phonemes--in spoken words
Explicit Instruction clearly models or
demonstrates skills/strategies and provides clear descriptions of new concepts (providing both clear examples and non-examples).
Systematic Instruction carefully sequenced,
so that easier skills are taught before more difficult skills
Connected Text Text-to-self Text-to-text Text-to-world
FLUENCY AND
COMPREHENSION

• Written response to literature- personal experience
• Written response focusing on story element– Characters, setting, theme,
moral, etc.• Retelling the story• Completing graphic
organizers• T-charts with predictions
and justifications• Written response to
