The Development of Reading Skills
Phonics-based Instruction
: is intended to teach students the basic English-language phonics rules so that they can easily decode words.
The purpose of phonics instruction is to teach beginning readers that printed letters represent speech sounds heard in words. It helps children see the correspondence between letters and sounds.
When children are at the emergent literacy stage, they should never be expected to read a word that they don't know the meaning of. For this reason, it's important to align your vocabulary and phonics instruction.
Phonics
: sound-letter correspondence. Is the teaching of sounds as part of decoding.
Literature-based Approach
: is designed to help young learners develop literacy skills within the context of literature.
Development of the child as an intellectual and creative being and the authentic English language and culture that is contained in children's storybooks.
Can be easily combined with literature-based approach.
