QuickReads
QuickReads consists of a one-to-two tutoring approach for struggling elementary readers or a supplemental fluency program given to students in grades 2-5 for 15 minutes each day. Quickreads texts are leveled by grade and are designed to build vocabulary through multiple exposures to new words. The print-only format of QuickReads uses student books with graphic organizers and written comprehension questions. The technology plus print format includes these materials and uses voice recognition software to measure reading rate and accuracy. The QuickReads tutoring program focuses on repeated reading, letters and sounds, and comprehension with the tutor acting as an instructional aid who helps with word identification and activating background knowledge.
