Decoding skills are critical for reading success. Early on, readers decode slowly as they must say each sound and blend the word. After several years of practice, kids begin to decode faster. Soon, the audible sound-by-sound reading melts away. Eventually, kids utter the entire word in one utterance.

Step-by-step explanation:

Here is a little example.

The teacher told Wendy that she simply needed to read aloud to her son, Jackson. He was in second grade and he had not developed decoding skills. When Jackson came across uncommon words, he used the first letter to guess. Oftentimes, if the book was new (one he hadn’t memorized) the sentences sounded like a word scramble: Henry (?) Harry (?) or is it Helen(?) went to the park (?) picnic (?) no it’s play right? Wendy thought, “But I’ve read to him since he was a baby.” The teacher didn’t want to say, “read aloud to him,” but such advice was standard protocol at the school.
