The
Rainbow
Reading Programme has been designed to present
students with a variety of topics, authors, styles and illustrations
to make reading interesting while skills are improved. Each story
or article has been carefully selected because of its educational
value and attraction to a wide range of students with varying needs
and interests. Books are levelled, colour coded, and are accompanied
by a specially recorded audio tape or CD to provide support for
readers. A comprehensive Teacher's Manual and Training DVD ensure
that this simple, yet effective, programme can be easily implemented.
Assessment sheets feature the titles of the books presented for
teachers to take Running Records to monitor progress. Cloze (Text
Completion), Text Sequencing, Word Search, Writing and Dice Game
sheets provide meaningful text-related activities.
The
Rainbow Reading Programme has been developed, thoroughly researched
and trialled by qualified reading specialists. It has been enthusiastically
accepted by teachers and students worldwide through distributors
in N.Z, Australia, U.K, Sweden, Hong Kong and South Africa.
