Discover how Reading Plus helped Murron from Hudson Road Primary School develop her reading fluency, confidence, and love of reading.


M


urron’s teacher tells us: “Murron found reading tricky and was not fluent; therefore, she would try and do anything other than reading. But after enjoying the online reading programme, Reading Plus, for half a term, she has built a repertoire of vocabulary, improved her reading fluency, improved her comprehension skills and most of all, her love of reading.”


Reading Plus is an evidence-based reading development programme designed to accelerate reading progress, even for those who are reluctant and less-able readers.


Murron’s Dad said, “Murron is a touch dyslexic and can lack concentration when it comes to reading. This has vastly improved whilst using Reading Plus, as it keeps her more engaged than a printed book.


“I like the structure of Reading Plus and how the Guided Window walks through the reading text with Murron. Her reading has come on leaps and bounds since starting with Reading Plus. She enjoys reading now and doing extra; getting her to read is no longer a chore.


Students who need support in building reading fluency will typically see text presented on Reading Plus using the patented Guided Window system. The Guided Window scaffolds the reading experience by guiding the reader’s eyes across a page of text. This is done at a bespoke speed for each pupil to build fluency and stamina.


Murron herself said, “I like the way [Reading Plus] slows down and speeds up and stuff. I like how it counts your words and gives you things to aim for.”
