Lessons that integrates instruction that combines phonemes & graphemes with the meaningful aspects of language - morphemes, word meaning and sentence construction from Day 1.
Sparking the Fluency Shift, too. ReadingShift.com
The three that all early literacy instructors should focus on is Berninger's Three Word Forms, POM. Integrated Phonemic, orthographic and morphological instruction has overwhelming support among researchers.Sound, symbol and meaning, phonemes, graphemes and morphemes always together. It's easy.

Do you know that Reading Recovery is being totally revised with Solidy's effective phonics and 100 sight words plus an efficient phonemic awareness approach. The three cueing is being transformed into sophisticated word solving strategies for unfamiliar polymorphemic words.n

You are using is current research if it conforms to:
1. Share's universal combining principle - symbols + phonemes = morphemes to make words
2. Duke and Cartwright's Active View- upgrades "The Rope"
3. Wolf's POSSuM in each lesson - phonemes, graphemes, morphemes, word meaning, sentence writing

What happened to Mississippi Miracle which didn't progress in this year's NAEP scores.
If TRL is researched based why focus on the outlier instead of the other 49 states? Why no progress in states with TRL or LETRS training? Rachael Gabriel shows that for 40 years phonics focused efforts fade.
