Really Great Reading Catalog 2023

Tools to Prevent and Resolve Decoding Weaknesses

Celebrating 18 Years of Teaching the Science of Reading

REALLY GREAT READING

Why are so many schools using the Really Great Reading approach?

Really Great Reading specializes in decoding instruction that makes a difference: Direct, systematic, explicit, and multisensory instruction in phonemic awareness and phonics.

We help teachers teach the best practices supported by evidence with preventative programs for all, smallgroup instruction for some, and intensive intervention for the few who need it. In just 15–20 minutes a day, deliver research-based, scientifically aligned instruction.

A Comprehensive Decoding Solution for Pre-K–12

Our Phonics Suite features diagnostic assessments, a data-based grouping system, and state-of-the-art foundational literacy skills instruction.

DIAGNOSTICS

Quick and easy assessments to measure foundational skills. Our free assessments help pinpoint areas of concern, group students, drive targeted instruction, and measure progress.

GROUPING

Create data-driven student groups based on decoding strengths and weaknesses. Our free Grouping Matrix illustrates which students should be taught together, offers instructional recommendations, and monitors progress.

INSTRUCTION

PREVENTION: Build strong decoders and bring the “science of reading” to life in the classroom with fun, daily instruction and practice.

PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT

insight

and so quickly. I’m relieved to know that the remediation is so elemental and effective. It felt like a huge breakthrough to understand that missing piece of the puzzle in my students’ reading. Thank you, thank you, thank you!!!!”

That was the best instructional reading PD I have taken part in over the last 13 years. Thank you very much.”

I cannot adequately tell you how valuable this training was for me!! Even after teaching 21 years (mostly upper elementary), I had NO IDEA how to teach reading in a way that would make sense to our kids! I am SO EXCITED to start with my groups! I had been dreading it, honestly, because I wasn’t sure what I could do that would show enough growth. Thanks for a great workshop and bringing some joy back to my reading lessons!”

D iagnostic Decoding Surveys Overview

Practical and Efficient Assessment Tools

EFFECTIVE INTERVENTIONS START WITH ACCURATE DIAGNOSTICS

Students struggle to read for many reasons. Effective interventions start with an accurate diagnosis of component reading strengths and weaknesses. Schools use Really Great Reading’s diagnostic decoding assessments to find out which students have decoding weaknesses that interfere with their ability to comprehend text. Because the ability to decode affects every academic area, diagnosis is critical.

Our diagnostic assessments help answer these key questions:

• W hich students are struggling with decoding?

• W hat types of words are they struggling with?

• W hat is the source of the underlying confusion?

• W ho can be grouped together for instruction?

• W hat type of instruction will yield the greatest results?

Diagnostic Decoding Assessments

Really Great Reading offers a family of complimentary diagnostic decoding assessments to help educators understand how well their students are decoding. In just 3 to 5 minutes, it’s easy to determine whether decoding deficits are hindering a student’s ability to understand what they are reading. Our complimentary diagnostic assessments contain everything you’ll need for initial assessment of an unlimited number of students. Each assessment packet provides an explanation of how the survey results can be used to group students and how to use data to plan effective and efficient instruction.

Quick Facts

• Quick and easy informal diagnostic tools

• Pinpoints decoding strengths & weaknesses

• Data identifies specific areas of need and helps drive targeted instruction

• Works for students in Grades K–12

T he Kindergarten Foundational Skills Survey screens a student’s:

• F unctional vocabulary

• Ph onological and phonemic awareness

• L etter names and letter sounds knowledge

• B eginning sight word abilities

• S imple decoding skills

Grouping Matrix™

This complimentary, web-based program enables you to group students according to the type and depth of their decoding difficulties. The Grouping Matrix also provides instructional recommendations for each group of students and allows you to track both individual and group progress. (Refer to chart on the right for grouping categories.) The Grouping Matrix uses data from gradelevel Oral Reading Fluency passages (such as DIBELS, AIMSWeb, Six Minute Solutions, Read Naturally, EasyCBM), the Kindergarten and 1st Grade Foundational Skills Surveys, and the Diagnostic Decoding Surveys.

Live Assess

Our “Live Assess” feature analyzes and scores the results from our diagnostic surveys. It allows the assessor to record student miscues digitally, and then automatically scores miscues and uploads data.

There are no silver bullets in education. But I’ve come to believe that early reading instruction is the closest we’ve got. Reading is the foundation upon which all academic learning is built. Imagine what a difference it would make if all kids could read well?”

Our approach to reading instruction is research-based, interactive, explicit, structured, and multisensory. In our lessons, students not only learn to read, but enjoy the intelligent and age-appropriate learning process.
