The Reading Comprehension (EDU & SLP) program is most appropriate for learners approximately 7–14 years old who are developing critical language and literacy skills. This is because reading comprehension challenges often become more visible during early academic years, when students are expected to read independently and understand increasingly complex material. The Reading Comprehension program can be adjusted to fit individual needs. Depending on the learner’s age and language development, it can serve different purposes: prevention of reading difficulties, stimulation of comprehension strategies, therapy, and improvement of reading fluency and understanding.
The program was designed with the following features in mind:
- A comprehensive tool to support the development of key reading comprehension skills, including listening comprehension, reading fluency, and comprehension strategies.
- Texts and exercises are divided into three difficulty levels with gradually increasing complexity to match the learner’s progress.
- Interactive exercises complement each text and reinforce understanding, encourage active engagement, and build confidence.
- Printable worksheets and a methodological guide offer additional support for educators and therapists using the program in diverse settings.
- Ideal for use in classrooms, special education, speech therapy sessions, tutoring, and English language learning environments.
