Basic reading skills include phonemic awareness, sight word recognition, phonics, and word analysis. Essential skills include identification of individual sounds and the ability to manipulate them, and identification of print.
Note:
During Tier 3 Interventions for Basic Reading Skills, teachers should not be prompting students to utilize the 3 Cueing System (semantic, syntactic, graphophonic), also known as MSV - Meaning, Structure, Visual cues, in accordance with the Science of Reading and WI Act 20.
Teachers should be consistently prompting students to decode words using learned letter-sound correspondence, phonics, and syllabication patterns.
Reading fluency refers to the ability to read words accurately, using age-appropriate chunking strategies and a repertoire of “sight” words, and with appropriate phrasing and expression (prosody). Reading fluency facilitates reading comprehension.
