Success in School Starts with Reading
Becoming a reader involves the development of important skills, including learning to:
>use language in conversation
>listen and respond to stories read aloud
>recognize and name the letters of the alphabet
>listen to the sounds of spoken language
>connect sounds to letters to figure out the "code" of reading
>read often so that recognizing words becomes easy and automatic
>learn and use new words
>understand what is read
When children become good readers in the early grades, they are more likely to become better learners throughout their school years and beyond.
