Tennessee, Results Success Stories

These programs tie into all five essential components of Reading First. They enhance what is being taught in the classroom and we have seen marked improvements in student performance. I would highly recommend these programs to other teachers!

The Essential Skills programs allow the students to learn independently. We are observing a definite improvement in their acquisition of reading skills, particularly in sound blending.

My ESL children have benefited greatly from using the Essential Skills. We have TECAP testing once a year as well as the ELDA. 75% of the children in my reading and ESL class are making adequate yearly growth because of their work with the Essential Skills.
