What reading looks like in 1st grade
First grade reading is where decoding becomes reading. Blends, digraphs and vowel patterns fill in, sight-word banks grow, and children start reading connected text for meaning.
First grade converts recognition into fluency. Children who could identify letters now decode, and children who could count now add. Expect a wide spread in one room.
