===Novice reader: 6 to 7 years old===
Novice readers continue to develop their phonemic awareness, and come to realise that the letters ([[graphemes]]) connect to the sounds ([[phonemes]]) of the language; known as decoding, [[phonics]], and the [[alphabetic principle]]. They may also memorize the most common letter patterns and some of the frequent words that do not necessarily follow basic phonological rules (e.g. ''have and who''). However, it is a mistake to assume a reader understands the meaning of a text merely because they can decode it. Vocabulary and oral language comprehension are also important parts of text comprehension as described in the [[Simple view of reading]] and [[Learning to read#Scarborough's Reading Rope|Scarborough's Reading Rope]].
