The Reading Process


During this class we looked at the process a child would go through to learn to read. I really never thought of the complete process or how our brain processes words. There are so many factors involved and if one area is not working properl the child could run into much difficulty and learning difficulties down the path of learning.

One of our first assignments for this course was to do a task analysis of the reading process using kidspiration or Inspiration. Since I was mist familiar with Inspiration I chose that one although I believe they are both very similar. I was amazed at just how complicated this process could be and from watching everyone's presentation I certainly learned a lot.
