Launching Successful Readers in Kindergarten and First Grade The importance of phoneme awareness and other foundation skills for beginning readers is well documented. Yet, unfortunately, there are widespread misunderstandings about how phoneme awareness skills develop and about how they should be taught. In this session, the misunderstandings will be evaluated, drawing on research findings that clarify how phoneme awareness actually develops and that provide guidelines for effective teaching of phoneme awareness and other foundation skills both to beginners and to older struggling readers. Questions and discussion will follow.
