TUNE into READING For Home

How It Works:

1

Singing Approach: TUNE into READING uses the rhythm and melody of song to engage students in a fun singing game.

Engagement: Combining the effectiveness of repetitive oral reading with the fun of rhythm and melody, this program makes students want to use TiR. Reading becomes a game, and students have fun while developing critical literacy skills.

Strategic Vocabulary: Clickable definitions for grade-leveled “vocabulary” use auditory and visual aids to increase student comprehension.

4

Tailored Instruction: Students enter the program at their individual reading level and work on grade-level and age-appropriate content.
