iRead, a foundational reading program for students in grades K–2, is used as both a supplement to the English Language Arts curriculum and as a reading intervention for students struggling with foundational reading skills in these early grades.
Beginning with alphabet knowledge, print concepts, and phonological awareness, iRead progresses toward increasingly complex skills in word recognition, spelling, and uency to ensure all children master the critical foundations of reading.

r Streamline student performance data to inform instruction and monitor progress toward Individual Education Plan (IEP) goals.
