About the Series
The Reading Gym series has proven to be an invaluable reading fluency tool to both teachers and parents as it provides comprehensive phonics lists for leveled phonics practice and segmented sentences to build fluency and improve comprehension.
The Reading Gym differs from other programs on the market because each vowel sound is presented in a manner totally isolated from the others, so that students can focus solely on the phonics sounds with which they are having difficulty.
In order to inspire and motivate students to keep returning to the books to practice phonics skills, each book is presented as a "gym" where kids can go to "work out" to build reading muscles. The books contain "membership" ID cards for students to present when they go for their "work out".
In addition, because of their unique organization, these "work out" books and phonics materials can be used alone, or as an adjunct to any other reading fluency program (e.g. Orton-Gillingham style, linguistic, phonetically controlled or basal).
