Reading fluency, powered by effective phonics practices, is essential for children ages 6-8 as it lays the foundation for their overall literacy development. During these early years, children transition from learning to read to reading to learn. If they struggle with decoding words due to weak phonics skills, their comprehension and confidence will suffer.

Fluency involves the ability to read texts smoothly and accurately at an appropriate pace, which is vital for meaning-making. With established phonics skills, children can recognize sounds and letter patterns, enabling them to decode unfamiliar words quickly. This swiftness allows for better focus on understanding the material rather than stumbling over words.

Moreover, engaging with texts confidently boosts children's motivation and love for reading. When parents and teachers prioritize reading fluency through phonics, they equip children with crucial strategies that will benefit them throughout their academic journeys and beyond. These strategies enhance critical thinking and problem-solving skills as they interact with various genres and subject matter.

Ultimately, by fostering strong reading fluency rooted in phonics, parents and teachers empower children to become proficient readers who enjoy learning and exploring the world around them. This investment in literacy skills paves the way for future success in education and life.
