I have noticed that it is challenging for a student to read when they have difficulty sounding out letters/words. In 4th grade I have many students who have trouble with this!

My students are generally in a rush to finish reading. So they don't pay attention to the rules they learned.

They often guess words or add/ delete sounds. Recently, I read in a text that it is not because they do not know how to sound the words out, but they are afraid to. We will break words into syllables or look for known word parts. -Kelly

My striving readers truly dislike reading on a screen. They request paper all the time. This makes me skeptical of online programs where they can only interact in a digital way with the resources.
