Alphabet and Word/Print Recognition: ability to recognize letters in random order without hesitation and eventually read sight words and high frequency words without hesitation
Decoding Skills: ability to match sounds with their correct letter or letter patterns to read unknown words
Vocabulary: ability to understand word meanings
Fluency: ability to read text accurately, quickly, and effortlessly 
Reading for Meaning (Comprehension): the ability to gain meaning that is reasonable and accurate from the text
