5 STEP MULTISENSORY READING PROGRAM
The Multisensory Reading Program Level 3 series is designed to teach students to instantly recognise the common graphemes so they are able to rapidly decode familiar and unfamiliar words. Students with dyslexia or other literacy difficulties are then in a position to use their ‘mental energy’ in understanding the text. Similar to the other books in the series, this Multisensory Reading Program is systematic, structured, multisensory and uses a range of memory strategies to maximise learning and most importantly adheres to the ‘science of reading‘ principles.
It is assumed that students using these books know the basic sound-symbol relationship of the alphabet.
The three books in the series cover the same material. However, each book is aimed at students of different reading levels. To view samples Click Here
Multisensory Reading Program Level 3A is a comprehensive 25 unit program designed as an introductory course for younger students to teach the common graphemes. Consequently, it is recommended for students with a current reading age of 6 years 6 months through to 7 years.
Multisensory Reading Program Level 3B condenses the Level 3A material into a 12 unit program and is recommended for students with a current reading age equivalent to 7 years through to 8 years.
Multisensory Reading Program Level 3C is also a 12 unit program, but uses more challenging vocabulary. It is recommended for students with a current reading age equivalent to 8 years through to 10 years.
This is the sequence for 3A and 3B. 3A only covers one phoneme each week instead of two. 3C covers the same phonemes, but in a slightly different order.
