REWARDS is a research-validated, specialized reading program designed for Intermediate students in grades 4, 5, and 6, and Secondary students in grades 6 and above, who read at a 2.5 grade level or above. Students who have mastered single-syllable words and are ready for multisyllabic words benefit greatly from this program. This short-term intervention program teaches decoding grade-level multisyllabic words, increases oral and silent reading fluency, expands knowledge of general academic and domain-specific vocabulary and creates confidence in reading.
The intervention program:
- Provides students with an effective strategy for breaking down multisyllabic words to increase fluency and comprehension
- Generalizes strategies across content areas
- Builds independence with a scaffolded instructional approach (“I do, we do, you do”model)
- Develops strong foundational skills for improved test taking
- Ensures students make accelerated gains with a focused, intensive approach
- Builds background knowledge for increased comprehension
One Teacher Manual (Intermediate or Secondary) is included in registration for those attending this training.
