What is full word recognition?
The ability to apply and identify the correct pronunciation of written words immediately and without conscious effort.
Children must learn the foundations of reading through phonological awareness and print knowledge. They can then build on these foundations by learning to decode which ultimately leads to full word recognition and a fluency in reading which opens so many doors.Kathryn Hall
