“…Research has also indicated that cumulative orthographic knowledge is a significant predictor of oral reading rate, silent reading rate, phonological recoding and later orthographic learning (Barker et al, 1992;Cunningham, 2006). Finally, cumulative orthographic knowledge also correlates with overall cognitive ability, receptive vocabulary, visual processing, RAN, phonological processing, and exposure to print (Bowers, Sunseth, & Golden, 1999;Conrad & Levy, 2007;Cunningham, 2006;Cunningham et al, 2001;Cunningham, Perry, Stanovich & Share, 2002;Cunningham & Stanovich, 1990;Georgiou, Parrila, Kirby, & Stephenson, 2008;Manis et al, 1999;Manis et al, 2000;Mesman & Kibby, 2011).…”
