1.1.1 Language Development at the Early-Reading Level
Language Development at the Early-Reading Level:
Learners at the Early-reading level have begun to make connections between spoken
and written language. Key characteristics of this stage include:
• Decoding skills: Learners start to recognize and sound out letters and simple
words.
• Vocabulary development: They begin to understand and use a growing number
of words.
• Comprehension: They can comprehend simple texts and follow a story with
pictures.

• Print awareness: Learners recognize that print carries meaning and understand
the directionality of text (left to right, top to bottom).
• Phonemic awareness: They can identify and manipulate individual sounds in
words.
• Basic sentence structure: Learners begin to understand and use basic
sentence structures in both reading and writing.
How Knowledge of These Stages Helps Teachers:
Understanding these stages enables teachers to:
• Target Instruction: Tailor their teaching strategies to meet learners' specific
needs, ensuring that instruction is neither too easy nor too challenging.
• Provide Appropriate Materials: Select texts and activities that match learners'
reading levels, which helps maintain engagement and promotes confidence.
• Support Differentiation: Implement differentiated instruction to cater to diverse
learning needs within the classroom.
• Monitor Progress: Assess learners’ development accurately and provide timely
interventions to address any difficulties.
• Build Foundation Skills: Focus on foundational skills such as phonemic
awareness and decoding, which are crucial for future reading success.
• Encourage a Love for Reading: Create a positive and supportive environment
that fosters a love for reading and learning.
