Reading & Language Arts
The Superkids Reading Program captivates students from the start with tales of the Superkids. These relatable characters and their ongoing adventures provide an engaging and cohesive framework for literacy success.
Superkids is a comprehensive English Language Arts curriculum crafted for grades K–2 using evidence-based literacy practices. This researchbased, proven-effective program follows a unique systematic and explicit instructional path through engaging and increasingly complex text.
Our students spend time each day working on decoding and comprehension skills, reading independently (or with a partner) writing independently, listening to reading, and engaging in work (high - frequency sight word activities). Our curriculum utilizes a balance of fiction and informational texts. Kindergartners become confident members of a reading and writing community.
