July 9th - Reading Task Analysis

Breaking down the reading process is a daunting task. In doing this activity I discovered that the reading process for an "average" reader would be far different than the reading process for a student with a reading disability.

  • Engage attention to task
  • Phonology (auditory processing) - Breaking down specific sounds by deciphering the alphabet and then "chunking" these sounds into syllables. Turning syllables into words and words into sentences etc.
  • Visual Processing (Orthography)
  • Semantics (understanding) - Relating what is read to a certain schema
