Skills scaffold
Students who are identified as Early Readers practice with Amira through an Early Reader Skills Scaffold Sequence consisting of Echo Reading, Word List, and Letter Story.

Amira keeps readers engaged with the right practice and tutoring for each student.

Save time and listen to samples of students' assessment on any schedule. The Running Record allows for administration of the assessment without the immediate presence of a qualified literacy specialist.
Early Readers
Students who are beginning to read and are identified as Early Readers on the Tracking Report will receive the appropriate sequence of skill development based upon their observed ability from the Benchmark assessment.
