Phonics
Early in a child's education they learn the alphabet. Next they learn that letters stand for sounds. Phonics instruction deals with teaching a child to match individual letters as well as letter combinations to the sounds we make as we speak. Students who learn to break the sound-symbol code are able to figure out unknown words efficiently and have an easier time reading. Phonics is emphasized in the primary grades.
