The understanding that spoken language words can be broken into individual phonemes. Being able to identify, manipulate and substitute the smallest units of sound - the building blocks of speech and the foundation of learning to read.

1. Phonemic Awareness

Turning those sounds into speech and being able to decode the written word - linking sounds and matching them to letters to formulate a word. Phonics instruction teaches students how to use these relationships to read and spell words.

2. Phonics

The ability to read accurately, quickly and with expression - to make sense of the text without having to stop and decode each word. Reading Fluency and the ability to read orally with speed, accuracy, and proper expression is one of several critical factors necessary for reading comprehension.

3. Fluency

Knowing what the words mean - helping kids to think more and understand.  The larger the reader’s vocabulary (either oral or print), the easier it is to make sense of the text. Better understanding of the meaning of words leads to greater comprehension.

4. Vocabulary

The complex cognitive process readers use to understand what they have read and the holy grail of reading! Critical thinking - being able to extract meaning, evaluate information and process ideas.

5. Comprehension

In this webinar, Dr. Paige delves into the best way to organize classrooms to meet the needs of all readers. He talks through the benefits of whole class instruction and implementation of alternative grouping practice, small group instruction, peer pairing & tutoring, and 1-2-1 instruction. More specifically, Dr. Paige discusses how teachers can help students who have difficulty with reading written material, expressing themselves, or learning by listening.
