If the $s are allocated properly, the $55.18 billion Race to the Top Fund created by the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 could have an amazing impact on our education system from early learners, Pre-K through high school, to pre-college.
As you are developing your ARRA spending plan, you should know that Sound Reading Solutions is a perfect fit for all stimulus funds, especially Title 1 and IDEA Funding. Here's Why:
- Aligned with all Title I and IDEA Requirements - Sound Reading is guaranteed to have at least half of your learning disabled students reading at or above grade level in as little as 3 months.
- A Web-Enabled Reading Software Program
- A Perfect solution for RTI - Sound Reading is based solely on current research that shows that virtually all reading difficulties have deep auditory roots. These issues are untouched by traditional reading methods.
- Provides Formative Assessment and Reporting
- Pre-K through 12th Grade and adults
- Includes Professional Development components and teacher training
We talk to hundreds of school districts every year and hear the same story; Schools try all kinds of reading programs and practices but results are inconsistent.
Schools talk about implementing research-based reading methods but rarely stray from practices that have been around for decades...and for decades reading scores for our students have barely budged.
This is where Sound Reading helps. The educators and researchers who developed Sound Reading over the last decade had a few simple goals and reached them. We have created a program that is:
- Extremely easy to implement - 2000 Costco Warehouse employee volunteers receive 2 hours of training and are highly effective tutors for 2nd and 3rd graders.
- Highly effective - Sound Reading is guaranteed to have at least half of your learning disabled students reading at or above grade level in as little as 3 months.
- More than “research-based” - Sound Reading is based solely on current research that shows that virtually all reading difficulties have deep auditory roots. These issues are untouched by traditional reading methods.
Our Clear Code Software™ works where phonics fails by understanding that phonemic awareness is very important for all students and that teaching phonics to students with auditory and phonemic awareness issues is pointless. Sound Reading teaches auditory processing, phonemic awareness and fluency before phonics come into the picture.
