According to Williams (1998) tightly-structured, multisensory, and comprehensive phonics instruction present in…
Automatic recognition of frequent words is very important for ELLs, whether the words follow phonics rules or not. Although ELLs may develop good decoding skills, their lack of total proficiency in the English language will always slow them down somewhat. Most ELLs will need additional time to master…
