Today, the SRA McGraw-Hill Reading Laboratories have stood the test of time and are used in classrooms across the country. Ideal for NAPLAN™ preparation With an emphasis on independent work and self-correction, students build ownership and understanding of their progress as they move through the program. The result is the confidence to tackle bigger challenges including NAPLAN™ testing. Engage your students Featuring a variety of text types at different levels including narratives, reports, biographies and non-fiction, the selections in each Reading Laboratory will capture the imagination of your students and get even the most reluctant of the group excited about reading. Use Reading Laboratories in your classroom to: Develop comprehension, vocabulary, fluency, word analysis and study skills Reinforce specific skills in which certain students show weakness Engage students’ interest and increase their knowledge based upon using a wide array of fiction and non-fiction selections Promote independent student work Make the most of classroom time Reading Laboratories let you make the most of every minute of learning time. The program’s levelled approach to reading instruction helps teachers meet the challenge. The basic design of the Reading Laboratories is simple: each student’s skill level is matched to colour-coded, levelled reading selections. The reading levels gradually increase in complexity and selections gradually increase in word count to keep students challenged as they progress through the program. Download the Level Guide
