Children typically pass through the beginning stage during first and second grade, but some reach it earlier and others continue in this stage for a longer period. At this stage, most children begin to see specific relationships between oral and written language and are developing the ability to associate specific sounds with specific letters and combinations of letters. In reading, they learn to use beginning, middle, and final sounds to decode. They grunt and bark at the print and read each word as if it were on a separate page. Most of their reading at this stage is oral, and they begin to make some self-corrections. In writing, many progress from writing one- and two-sentence pieces to writing longer, better-developed compositions. They make few revisions and editing corrections in their writing. Their spelling of words is often tied to the sounds they hear and becomes more conventional with practice.
