Five Components of Effective Reading Instruction
Jet contains the five components of effective reading instruction identified by research from the National Reading Panel. Jet addresses each component by:
- Phonemic Awareness – following established procedures for explicitly teaching the relationships between speech- sound production and spelling-sound patterns
- Phonics – providing a systematic approach for single word decoding
- Fluency – using research-proven directed practice in repeated reading of words, phrases and passages to help individuals read newly encountered text more fluently
- Vocabulary – featuring multiple word learning strategies (definitional, structural, contextual) and explicit teaching techniques with application in text
- Reading Comprehension – teaching individuals to explicitly use and articulate multiple comprehension strategies in narrative and expository text (i.e., cooperative learning, story structure, question generation and answering, summarization and comprehension monitoring)
The Jet Intervention Kit costs $485 and will be purchased through the Scottish Rite for Children (SRC) online portal.
