Reaching All Learners through Literacy
Inclusive Education
In 2022, the Nation’s Report Card found that 68% of fourth graders are not reading at a proficient level. However, with proper instruction, 95% of students have the ability to read proficiently.
What is RALLIE Reading?
RALLIE READING is a comprehensive and cumulative phonics-based literacy curriculum for kindergarten through third grade classroom teachers. It can also be used as an intervention curriculum for students at any grade level by learning specialists, tutors, or parents.
Focus
Based off of the Science of Reading and how the brain learns to read, RALLIE READING curriculum focuses on phonics, reading fluency, and phonemic awareness. All materials are designed to be explicitly taught so all learners can become proficient readers.
Our Goal
With more and more students falling further behind in reading, our schools, teachers, and communities are in need of materials that match the research behind the Science of Reading. By aligning materials with sound-spelling patterns and the necessary skills to build phonics, fluency, and decoding proficiency, RALLIE READING provides the explicit and systematic approach to help all students succeed as readers.
