My Project

I am a reading specialist and I love helping my students become successful readers! I am learning and implementing a new curriculum called "Take Flight". It is a comprehensive intervention for students with dyslexia and other reading challenges.

Reading is an essential skill for life.

"Take Flight" is a Science of Reading researched-based program. It is an explicit, systematic, multi-sensory approach to teaching reading. However, it does require a lot of materials. I am asking for the things I need to help my students achieve and maintain better word recognition, reading fluency, and reading comprehension, through this program.

My goal for this project is to have all the books and materials organized and ready. I don't want to waste a minute of my teaching time to look for the things I need for a successful lesson. I want to use every minute helping my students become life long, independent readers.
