  3. Program • The program's 45-minute lessons are designed for groups of up to 20 students, ideally five times a week. It has two components, decoding and comprehension2 , each with four levels. The number of lessons varies by component and level. Decoding level A, designed for non-readers, has 65 lessons. It emphasizes basic decoding skills: rhyming, sounding out, sentence reading, and story reading. Levels B1 and B2 (65 lessons) are designed for struggling readers who do not read fluently or who confuse similar words. These levels teach students to become automatic decoders, with the increased self-confidence to read 90 words per minute by the end of B1 and 120 words per minute by the end of B2. Level C (125 lessons) is designed for students who experience difficulty with vocabulary and complex sentence structures. This level bridges the gap between advanced word decoding skills and the ability to read informational text. All levels contain ongoing mastery tests and individual reading checkouts to assess individual student achievement.

  4. Cost • Cost • Prices range by level (A, B1, B2, C) and content (decoding, comprehension). The cost of student materials ranges from $10 a student for level A programs to $50 a student for level C materials. Teacher materials cost approximately $200 per level.

Learning Objectives • The student receives daily practice in oral reading, with immediate feedback. • Series assure that the student observes progress in reading rate and reading accuracy. • Stories and story comprehension activities assure that students attend to the content of what they read. • Students practice using the vocabulary of instruction. • The series addresses the problem reader’s poor self-image.

  9. Criticisms • Scripted nature of the program reduces teacher creativity and modifications • Heavy use of oral teacher presentations and oral student responses are too structured and controlled. • Extremely difficult to implement in the middle and high school setting

  10. Training • The publisher provides approximately seven hours of staff development that focuses on how to deliver direct instruction and use the program materials. Follow-up observations and coaching are recommended. A Teaching Tutor CD-Rom provides ongoing support for teachers using Corrective Reading. • WSFCS will observe teacher lessons, with booster sessions throughout the school year.
