Reading, Part I is designed for the professional development of teachers in reading education. A study of the cognitive and linguistic process involved in reading comprehension and word identification will serve as the basis for the examination of the developmental continuum in reading acquisition, development, and refinement. Application of basic principles to diagnostic classroom instruction will be made through practical activities.
