To Read with Speed, Get Hooked on Phonics, and…: Scientific American

To Read with Speed, Get Hooked on Phonics, and…: Scientific American: "The three processes: phonics (a letter by letter sounding out of words); contextual clues (earlier parts of sentences that help readers anticipate upcoming words); and holistic word recognition, or the physical shape of words."
