HMH - Into Reading Program

The Into Reading Program incorporates structured literacy, emphasizing explicit and systematic instruction in foundational reading skills. This approach focuses on building word recognition, including phonological awareness, decoding, sight recognition, and fluency. The program is designed to be effective for all students and is based on the science of reading. 

Key Components of Structured Literacy in the Into Reading Program

Phonological Awareness: Understanding the sounds of language.

Phonics: Connecting sounds to letters and spelling patterns.

Decoding: Breaking down words into their individual sounds to read them.

Sight Recognition: Memorizing high-frequency words for automaticity.

Fluency: Reading accurately, quickly, and with expression.

Vocabulary: Building knowledge of words and their meanings.

Comprehension: Understanding what is read.
