Specialized Program Individualizing Reading Excellence

S.P.I.R.E. is designed to help your child experience reading success through a systemic and structured curriculum. The program follows the Structured Literacy Approach, and incorporates phonological awareness, phonics, spelling, vocabulary, comprehension, and fluency instruction that leads to permanent reading gains.

Through a consistent 10-step lesson, S.P.I.R.E. is designed to increase students' reading skills through...

  • explicit, teacher-led instruction

  • a systemic, sequential, and consistent structure that supports learning and retention

  • multisensory learning: auditory, visual, and kinesthetic teaching techniques are woven throughout the 10-Steps to keep students actively engaged so they can learn and retain information

  • teaching to mastery: data-driven instruction with continual practice and reinforcement
