Which program is aimed at increasing student comprehension skills?

The SRA Reading® Program is designed specifically to enhance reading comprehension skills among students. This program employs a structured approach to teaching reading that includes a variety of engaging activities and materials tailored to develop critical skills necessary for understanding texts. Its focus on comprehension encompasses strategies that help students make meaningful connections with the material they read, analyze and draw inferences from texts, and apply their understanding across different subjects.

While other programs like the Literacy Instruction Framework may also address a broader range of literacy skills, including comprehension, they are typically framed as overarching instructional strategies rather than specific programs aimed squarely at reading comprehension. The Math Recovery Program, as the name suggests, focuses on improving students’ mathematics skills and does not target reading comprehension. The Writing Workshop Approach primarily emphasizes writing skills and processes, rather than comprehension in reading. Therefore, the SRA Reading® Program stands out for its direct aim to boost reading comprehension abilities.
