About the program
Evidence-based Grade Levels: PreK - 5
For more than fifty years, Reading Mastery has produced proficient readers and writers through a commitment to using research-proven techniques and field-tested materials that present a sequence of instructional tracks designed to gradually teach skills to mastery.
Reading Mastery Transformations is an evidence-based Direct Instruction reading program aligned to the science of reading.
The Direct Instruction methodology provides explicit instruction for teaching skills associated with reading.
The explicit instruction is characterised by a series of structured lessons that guide students through the learning process. Instruction for learning new skills includes clear explanations, modeling, as well as guided feedback and support until independent mastery has been achieved.
