1. c. Accurate, fast word recognition is necessary for development of
reading fluency and text comprehension.: 1. Which statement best
describes the relation- ship between reading comprehension and word
decoding in a beginning reader's development?
2. a. oral language comprehension: 2. Near the close of the day, a
kindergarten teacher guides the students in conversation about the

important implica- tion of the Four-Part Processing Model for Word
Recognition?

ment data.: 4. After results of a winter screening, six second-graders

reading an alphabetic writing system?
