Reads more intricate words, like two-syllable terms.
Recognizes words that have common prefixes and suffixes, such as: pre-, re-, un-, -able, -ad, and -er.
Reads grade-level, irregularly spelled words (ask your child's teacher for an exact list of these words).
Peruses a range of writings encompassing fiction, nonfiction, fables, and poetry.
