Reading
Early Readers
Children who are new to reading start by 'reading' books with no words. They are taught how to handle and ''use' a book and they are taught to 'read' the pictures. This develops their inference skills and encourages 'reading for meaning'.
More Advanced Readers
As children progress with their reading, they move from segmenting and blending words to being able to read with fluency. Once this is achieved, children work on their expression and intonation.
Children continue to build on their comprehension skills.
