Standard 1: Reading Foundations
|
Students will develop foundational skills for future reading success by working with sounds, letters, and text.
|
FLUENCY: Students will recognize high- frequency words and read grade-level text smoothly and accurately, with expression that connotes comprehension.
|
Students will continue to review and apply earlier grade level expectations for this standard. If these fluency skills are not mastered, students will address skills from previous grades. |
3.2.F.1 Students will read high frequency and/or irregularly spelled grade-level words with automaticity in text. |

Fluent, Automatic Reading of Text (webpage)
Why Are Sight Words Important (webpage)
|
-
Many sight words do not follow basic phonics principles, thus cannot be sounded out.
-
If students can read high-frequency words with automaticity, their fluency will increase and they can focus on the more challenging task of comprehension.
-
Automaticity is the ability to do things without having to think about them at a conscious level.
|
Due to recursive nature of the standards, it is essential that teachers are aware of how all objectives within and between strands work together for optimal instruction.
