A second-grade teacher regularly reviews spelling patterns previously taught. The teacher also provides students with multiple opportunities to read and write connected text that features words containing the target spelling patterns and to engage in word sorts focused on previously taught spelling patterns. These types of activities are likely to promote students' reading proficiency primarily by developing their:
knowledge of grade-level vocabulary.
reading fluency with respect to accuracy.
awareness of different types of morphemes.
word recognition with respect to sight words.

A second-grade teacher pairs students who are reading at approximately the same independent reading level for a partner-reading activity.

development of reading rate and automaticity.
awareness of key aspects of prosodic reading.
development of comprehension skills and strategies.
awareness of new phonics elements.
