Decodable Text: A Review of What We Know.

Mesmer, Heidi Anne M.

Reading Research and Instruction, v40 n2 p121-42 Win 2001

Reviews the literature on decodable text, instructional material containing words with phonically regular relationships that the reader has been taught. Synthesizes findings into a theoretical model that suggests a specific developmental juncture in which decodable text may be useful. Concludes that additional analyses of words in text are not necessary. (RS)
