Reading Strategies for Struggling Readers:
Phonological awareness is a skill that must exist prior to being able to read fluently. Stretching words is a great way to allow students to hear individual letter sounds. Phonics teaches students to properly decode words using word parts and syllables. Changing vowel sounds and vowel teams improve student reading. Fluency is the ability to read smoothly and accurately. Reading passages while being time is a great tool to improve reading fluency. Vocabulary should grow with age and should serve as a useful tool while reading. Using context clues really improve the student's understanding of new words. Vocabulary sketches help readers identify the meaning of the words, use it in context and they can draw a picture. Reading comprehension is understanding what you have read. Identifying characters, setting and the main idea help readers to retell what they have read.
