Word recognition is a fundamental aspect of normal reading development for children aged 7-9 and is crucial for several reasons. At this stage, children transition from "learning to read" to "reading to learn." Proficiencies in word recognition enable them to read more fluently and with greater comprehension, providing the foundation for academic success across all subjects.

When children can quickly and accurately recognize words, their cognitive resources can be better allocated to understanding and interpreting the meaning of texts, rather than decoding individual words. This fluency fosters a more enjoyable and motivational reading experience, promoting a love for reading and learning. Adequate word recognition skills are also crucial for vocabulary development as it allows children to independently tackle new and more complex texts, encountering and assimilating new words effortlessly.

Furthermore, word recognition skill impacts children's confidence and performance both in and out of the classroom. Those who struggle with it may face challenges in academics, affecting self-esteem and enthusiasm for learning. Thus, early intervention by parents and teachers to support word recognition skills is essential. It helps prevent the potential long-term negative effects on educational attainment and self-confidence, laying a strong foundation for continued learning and success in later years.
