Bridge Isolated Reading Skills – Phonics & Fluency Skills To Real Life Reading

Bridge Isolated Skills To Real Life Reading

Bridging the isolated reading skill to real life situations can be accomplished in a rather painless way. Use the Five Minutes to Better Reading Skills program. It is also practicing rapid naming in addition to visual closure, visual tracking, and phonemic awareness. Third, immediately following this exercise [Five Minutes to Better Reading Skills], read a story or passage from the book you are currently working out of. This is your text reading, your real-life integrating of the skills.

Text Reading Bridge To Comprehension

The text reading doesn’t end the reading instruction because now you need to work on reading comprehension strategies. The ability to decode words and then decode them faster is crucial to reading. However, if you have that skill but are not able to comprehend what you have read, all you do is word calling.

Reading is not only the decoding process. It is also the process of making sense of the written word, getting meaning from it, processing it, utilizing it, and making it your own.
