•Relationship of Reading to Listening Child’s reading level is much below the language that is understood when heard At end of stage, most children understand 6,000 or more words but can read only about 600. Stage 1
Stage 2: Confirmation and Fluency Grades 2 and 3 (ages 7 and 8)

Implications: • Stage 3 is necessary for the industrial workplace • Stage 4 is an absolute for the informational age • Many readers never get beyond Stage 3 and most reading instruction ends before students are adept at Stage 3 skills • Most remediation is done in Stage 1 and Stage 2 as well as Stage 3A • However, Stage 3A depends so heavily on adequate Stage 1 & 2 skills that decoding and fluency may be more important for older students whose comprehension seems low
