The key components of reading instruction are: phonemic awareness
(knowledge that spoken words are made up of sounds), phonics (the
relationship between letters
and sounds), comprehension (understanding
what you read), vocabulary development and fluency (reading
accurately
and at an appropriate pace). Children must learn the workings of spoken language
before they can become competent readers. To encourage a lifetime of reading, parents
can make predictions as to what the story is about and preview
the pictures by conducting
a "picture walk," which helps
children develop both vocabulary and COMPREHENSION skills.
