STATE SCORES
4th Grade Reading Test Scores
For decades, traditional methods of teaching reading have consistently shown underwhelming results, as evidenced by stagnant scores on national assessments like the Fourth Grade Reading Test. These conventional approaches often lack a scientific basis and fail to adapt to the diverse cognitive needs of students. In contrast, our new course introduces a groundbreaking method rooted in the Science of Reading. This approach is not only rooted in rigorous research but also incorporates comprehensive strategies that cover phonological awareness, phonics, fluency, vocabulary, and text comprehension. By embracing this method, educators are equipped with the tools to transform their teaching and significantly boost their students' reading abilities.
