The Whole-Word Approach to Teaching Reading Emphasizes That

The whole-word approach to teaching reading emphasizes that

A) readers directly connect a written word with the word's meaning.
B) we should emphasize the way that words sound.
C) readers perceive the individual letters in the visual stimulus, so we should take a bottom-up approach to reading.
D) beginning readers emphasize the whole word; advanced readers emphasize the sounds within each word.
