How to Use the Reading Components in Your Classroom

Watch our YouTube video as we explain how to use the reading components in your classroom (k-6)! Our video and informational FREEBIE gives you an overview of: 

What each reading component is, 

How we can assess each component, and 

What effective instruction should include.

The reading components include oral language, print awareness, letter knowledge, phonological awareness, phonics, fluency, vocabulary, and comprehension. We hope this video and download will help clarify these very important aspects of literacy and will help you include each of them in your daily teaching.
