Introduction
The centerpiece of our Totally Literate Program is The
Red Well-Read Reader.
The beauty of this book, so to speak, is that it benefits
all students according to their age and ability. On one
hand, fast learners never become bored for they are
forever struggling to grasp meanings which are in large
part slightly over their heads. Not to worry, they’ll
always sense the rather sophisticated humor. And on
the other hand slow learners never feel overwhelmed
because the level of difficulty decoding (i.e. reading
irrespective of comprehension) remains simple
throughout the entire book. This is accomplished
because only one phoneme, or sound, is typically
introduced per story.
The Red Well-Read Reader, along with its numerous
complementary products, contains virtually every
monosyllabic word in the English language, many of the
thousands of definitions thereof, and the various
spellings of every phoneme. Indeed, TRWRR is a reader,
speller, and vocabulary builder.
