“An integrated approach to teaching reading is a process that should involve collaboration with school communities and parents and should teach the following:

I - Phonemic awareness: the ability to hear and manipulate sounds in oral language.

II - Phonics: the relationships between letters and syntax.

III - Vocabulary: new words and what they mean. IV - Text comprehension: understanding what is being read and developing higher-order thinking skills; and fluency, which is the ability to read quickly and naturally recognize words automatically, and group words quickly.”
