|
1) Pre-reading
2) Initial reading 3) fluency 4) reading to learn |
|
Pre-reading Stage
|
Children in this stage may have alphabetic and graphophonemic knowledge but don't have the ability to read unfamiliar words. They're limited to a few sight words
|
|
Initial reading stage
|
This stage is also known as the DECODING stage. In this stage children's reading may have an awkward quality due to them putting a great deal of effort into sounding out words
|
|
Fluency Stage
|
In this stage, children become more familiar with written language and decoding becomes automatic
|
|
Reading to learn stage
