Reading Roots 4th Edition Program Components
FastTrack Phonics FastTrack Phonics is a fun, fast-paced and systematic phonics program that builds students’ skills in letter-sound correspondence and word-level reading and spelling.
Shared Stories Shared Stories are phonetically regular picture books that allow students to read engaging stories even when they know only a few letter sounds. Lessons develop the students’ reading fl uency, oral language, and vocabulary abilities as they increase in reading complexity.
Story Telling and Retelling (STaR)The STaR component engages the students in interactive and imaginative reading of stories selected from children’s literature as the students are instructed in using background knowledge, reasoning, prediction, and higher order thinking skills to increase their story comprehension. Lessons also focus on vocabulary development and writing skills.
Adventures in Writing Adventures in Writing lessons allow students to write their thoughts and ideas about the stories and story themes read and discussed in class. These lessons allow them to practice using a variety of emergent-writing strategies that are structured to increase in diffi culty, without sacrifi cing students’ expression of thoughts and ideas.
