However, as students progressed to higher grades, text reading fluency played a much bigger role in comprehension than word reading fluency.  Kim and Wagner (2015) found that when students struggled to recall words, cognitive ability that could be used to comprehend what they were reading was being used to decode words and thus had a significant impact on comprehension abilities.

The authors discuss semiotic mediation and they define this as “one of the fundamental principles of a sociocultural approach to literacy. The authors suggest that thoughts and actions are intertwined and as students engage in meaning making they achieve greater levels of independence and the ability to become more independent learners.

Why is it gone? How does this effect reading abilities? And what can be done about it?
