Parents and teachers should prioritize reading fluency and phonics for children aged 6-7 because these foundational skills are crucial for early literacy development. Reading fluency refers to the ability to read text accurately, quickly, and with proper expression. This skill is important because it directly impacts a child's ability to comprehend what they read. Fluent readers can focus on understanding the text rather than deciphering individual words, which enhances their overall learning experience.

Phonics, on the other hand, is the method of teaching reading by correlating sounds with symbols in an alphabetic writing system. For children in the 6-7 age range, mastering phonics is essential because it provides them with the tools they need to decode new words. This understanding helps them become more independent readers, enabling them to access a broader range of texts.

Investing time and effort into these skills means setting the stage for future academic success. Children who are fluent readers are more likely to perform well in school, enjoy reading, and develop a lifelong love for learning. Therefore, emphasizing reading fluency and phonics during these formative years is critical for building a strong educational foundation, boosting confidence, and fostering a positive attitude toward learning.
