A Consistent Solution: Read Right Methodology for All Elementary Grades.jpg)
Read Right Reading Programs can help schools prevent reading problems from forming and provide a consistent solution if reading problems emerge.
We developed the Read Right Intervention Program (Grades 3-12) first, before we developed our Primary Core Curriculum (Grades K-3). That is significant because we were able to apply what we learned about what causes reading problems and how they can be eliminated to our highly structured K-3 early reading program. The result is a total solution for elementary schools. Imagine being able to provide consistent, systematic instruction grounded in brain science that is student-centered for all of your elementary students. What could be better?

The Read Right Primary Core Curriculum (Grades K-3)
The Read Right Primary Core Curriculum is designed to ensure that every student builds a neural network for reading that operates efficiently and effectively from the beginning. The method is effective because it addresses both the explicit aspects of the process (phonics, decoding, concept of word, and one-to-one correspondence) and the implicit aspects (integrating the various neural systems required to anticipate the author's meaning). Read Right methodology uses the power of implicit procedural learning to prevent reading problems from ever forming.
The Read Right Intervention Program (Grades 3 & Up)
Researchers have documented that knowing how to decode and identify individual words does not guarantee that students will become effective readers by the third or fourth grade. In fact, researchers are presently investigating an all-too-frequent phenomenon known as the "fourth grade slump"—a decline in reading abilities frequently experienced by fourth graders. The Read Right Intervention Program for elementary schools is designed to help students with mild to severe reading problems make the leap from effortful word identification to effortless and proficient comprehension. Even the most challenged students are quickly transformed from poor readers to excellent readers, in a matter of months, not years!
