Early literacy instruction focuses on developing the

pre-reading and reading skills of your child. These skills

are concentrated into five areas:

  • phonemic awareness (the ability to hear the individual sounds that make up words)

  • phonics (letter and word knowledge)

  • vocabulary

  • fluency (accurate and effortless recognition of letters, sounds, and words; reading with appropriate expression and pacing)

  • comprehension

At Homer, Kindergarten students receive Common Core-aligned instruction addressing these areas. Use the links below to explore different resources to help your child develop critical early literacy skills
