How it works

It teaches a specific sequential approach to informational text in order to extract meaning and relevant information, and to answer comprehension questions with a high degree of accuracy without having to read the entire text.

What students gain

As a result of mastering the method, students improve in reading comprehension, reading anxiety, test-taking skills, assessment results, and self-respect.

Who it has helped

Since 2007 it has been successfully taught to students with Specific Learning Disabilities, Attention Deficit Disorders, Autism Spectrum Disorders, and other neurodivergent conditions.
Research-based

Grounded in three proven traditions.
