Decoding words is important — but comprehension is the goal of reading.

Students build comprehension skills by learning to:
✔️ Identify the main idea
✔️ Retell events in order
✔️ Make predictions
✔️ Answer deeper questions about the text

Reading success comes from understanding what you read — not just saying the words.

📚 Wondering how your child’s reading comprehension is developing?

Phonological awareness is the ability to hear and manipulate sounds in spoken language.

Skills like rhyming, syllable awareness, and identifying individual sounds help prepare children for decoding and reading success.

Strong readers are built from the sounds up. 💛
