Phonics Skills
To read independently, children must understand the relationship between the sounds in spoken words and the letters that represent those sounds.
Word Recognition
As children learn to read, they must be able to "decode" the words they don't know- to translate strings of letters into words. Eventually they can recognize common words that can't be sounded out (the, said, she).
The Alphabet
Knowing the letters of the alphabet is one of the first steps toward learning to read and write. Introducing letters to young children helps them learn to recognize the different shapes and names - an early indicator for reading achievement.
Consonants
There are more consonants sounds than there are consonants in the alphabet. A consonant digraph is a pair of consonants that stand for a single sound (ch, sh, th, wh).
Sight Words
Sight words are words that cannot be sounded out (the, where, etc.), so they must be learned by sight and memorized.
Vowels
Spelling begins with regular short vowel sounds (cap) and long vowel sounds (with silent e, cap becomes cape). Finally, children learn the rules and patterns of vowel pairs (ee), digraphs (ai in train), dipthongs (oi in boil) and r-controlled vowels (farm, bird)
Telling Time
Children learn that clocks are tools for measuring time in hours and minutes, and they learn
Counting
Children learn to count and compare sets of objects, and recite the number string, to solve problems that require exact enumeration.
Sequencing
Children learn to identify numbers missing from sequences, such as 3, 4, __, 6.
Addition
Children learn to add quantities together, sometimes with objects, and sometimes with symbolic equations such as 4 + 3 = __.
Subtraction
Children learn to subtract quantities from each other, sometimes with objects, and sometimes with symbolic equations such as 4 - 3 = __.
