Struggling Readers

Do you wish you could give your struggling readers

  • direct strategy instruction;
  • adaptive curriculum; and
  • ongoing assessment?

You already know that reading ability is a predictor of future academic success. In fact, struggling readers who fail reading in first grade are very likely to fail reading and other subjects in grades 4, 8, and 12 too. But how do you help struggling readers reach grade-level proficiency with the limited teacher and financial resources you have?

We have created a program that uses research-proven methods like direct strategy instruction and ongoing assessment to deliver results without creating additional work for educators. Let us help you give your struggling readers what they need to achieve grade-level proficiency.

Direct Strategy Instruction

Our curriculum includes over sixty leveled texts, both expository and fiction. Students receive direct strategy instruction as they learn key vocabulary words, listen to a narrator model how to read the text, and even record themselves reading. They also receive direct instruction on important reading comprehension strategies common to state tests.

Adaptive Curriculum

Each stage of struggling readers' growth demands special attention, so we've created an adaptive curriculum that meets individual needs. The program places students at their ideal starting point within the curriculum, prescribes a customized course of study based on knowledge gaps and learning needs, and adapts to student progress, accelerating or reteaching as needed.

Ongoing Assessment

With our detailed reports for both teachers and parents, teachers can see comprehensive data on student usage, progress, and mastery of key concepts like vocabulary and reading comprehension. Parents have access to the same detailed information, so they can easily tailor at-home support to meet their struggling readers' individual needs.
