RF Reading Foundations
2nd RF Learning Outcome
2.RF.1 Demonstrate an understanding of the five components of reading (print concepts, phonemic awareness, phonics, vocabulary, and fluency and comprehension) to build foundational reading skills.
Phonics
2.RF.4.2 Use knowledge of the six major syllable patterns (CVC, CVr, V, VV, VCe, Cle) to decode two-syllable words, independent of context.
2.RF.4.3 Apply knowledge of short and long vowels (including vowel teams) when reading regularly spelled one-syllable words.
2.RF.4.4 Recognize and read common and irregularly spelled high-frequency words and abbreviations by sight (e.g., through, tough; Jan., Fri.).
2.RF.4.5 Know and use common word families when reading unfamiliar words (e.g., -ale, -est, -ine, -ock).
2.RF.4.6 Read multi-syllabic words composed of roots, prefixes, and suffixes; read contractions, possessives (e.g., kitten’s, sisters’), and compound words.
Fluency
2.RF.5 Orally read grade-level appropriate or higher texts smoothly and accurately, with expression that connotes comprehension at the independent level.
