Read Naturally GATE+ supports reading achievement by combining the research-proven strategies of teacher modeling, repeated reading, and progress monitoring. This webinar introduces educators to Read Naturally GATE+, an interactive program that uses explicit, systematic instruction to teach phonemic awareness and phonics, develop fluency, master high frequency words, and provide support for vocabulary and comprehension.

More students than ever are struggling with reading. Schools and families do not have more resources to address this growing issue, and summer is approaching. One Minute Reader Live, a component of Read Live, can help. It focuses on fluency and comprehension with support for vocabulary. One Minute Reader Live levels include first through mid-fifth grade reading levels. This motivating, independent program is structured to provide developing readers the support and engagement needed to catch up to their peers, without direct assistance from a teacher or parent.
