Discuss how you assess and monitor your students' progress in phonics and word recognition

Discuss how you assess and monitor your students' progress in phonics and word recognition. Be sure to specify the grade level you teach and why your chosen methods are appropriate for that level. Is there one area in which you would like to improve in the coming year? How will you improve what YOU do? How will this affect your students? Include at least one citation from the textbook as you respond initially to this discussion forum
