Phonemic Awareness And Phonics Instruction Are The Primary Focus During Literacy Development For Struggling Young

Phonemic awareness and phonics instruction are the primary focus during literacy development for struggling young readers, while the primary focus for struggling older students is on fluency, vocabulary, and comprehension. Students who do not master basic reading skills early will struggle with reading. Families are important resources to assist students with their reading development.

For this assignment, create an at-home plan for families of students who struggle with reading. Select a grade level and write a letter or email to families describing the following:

• Specific challenges students face with reading in the classroom
• At least three at-home activities families can implement to support reading development
• At least two online resources families can access to assist students with reading
• How the teacher will monitor student progress and communicate progress to families

APA format is not required, but solid academic writing is expected.
