Edmark Reading Program, Level 1, Software Version
Teach beginning reading and language development to nonreaders
The Edmark Reading Program is designed for students with learning or developmental disabilities and those who have not succeeded with other reading methods. For 30 years, this trusted program has been highly regarded by teaching professionals as "the one that works", allowing most nonreaders to master basic reading skills. Since there is no game format, this is a good program for adults learning to read.
The Edmark Reading Program uses a whole-word approach, with short instructional steps, consistent repetition, and positive reinforcement to ensure that students experience immediate success.Multiple learning modalities are incorporated into this highly effective process with a variety of lesson formats that keep students motivated and involved. Graphics, content, and presentation are appropriate for readers of all ages. Graphics can be turned off for adult or older students.
At five- and ten-word intervals, review and test activities are provided, allowing teachers to test student knowledge of learned words. Management tools and automatic record keeping allow teachers to individualize student learning and track progress.
The Edmark Reading Program, Level 1 software version teaches 150 words chosen from the Dolch Word List for first-grade readers, as well as "-s,""-ed," and "-ing" endings, capitalization, and punctuation. Students can click on individual words or whole sentences to hear them read aloud. From the beginning, students find success with a process that teaches sight recognition of a word, introduces its meaning, provides comprehension activities, and uses the word in story context.
