Literacy Principles   /     Principle 3: Efficient Word Recognition (Literacy Principle #4)

Description

Principle 3: Efficient word recognition is essential to reading comprehension. Decades of research support the need for explicit and systematic phonics instruction.  Both decoding and language comprehension abilities are necessary for reading, and both must be strong.  Strength in one area (decoding or language comprehension) cannot compensate for a deficit in the other area.  Join Robi Alstrom and Jane Seward for guidelines on accurate and automatic word recognition.     http://www.nationalreadingpanel.org/   Mehta, P.D., Foorman, B.R., Branum-Martin, L. & Taylor, […]The post Principle 3: Efficient Word Recognition (Literacy Principle #4) appeared first on Remarkable Chatter.
