Answer 1

Answer:

C. Words

The "look-and-say" method of teaching reading focuses on the recognition of:

Words

1. Whole-word recognition: Students learn to recognize words as a whole, rather than sounding out individual letters.

2. Sight words: Students are taught to recognize common sight words, which are words that are frequently used in reading materials.

This method emphasizes visual recognition of words, encouraging students to look at the word and say it, rather than sounding out individual letters.
