The University of Akron K-12 Reading Program has opened early, reduced rates, and converted all classes to a live online format, to help parents and schools maintain student education during these unusual times.
Our live, teacher-led online classes are available now and throughout the summer, for Pre-K through 12th grade students.
The curriculum is high caliber and has been taught in a live, online format for five years already with more than 50,000 school-age students. The classes are led by highly-trained teachers with many years’ experience teaching effectively in online classrooms. Skills taught include:
- Early Elementary: letter recognition, phonemic awareness, sight words, phonics
- Mid-to-Late Elementary: fluency, phonics, long-word decoding, comprehension, textbook reading, writing
- Middle and High School: doubling reading speed, comprehension, writing, notetaking, test preparation, textbook strategies
Due to the unfolding health crisis, the ability to get the word out to parents has been greatly diminished. Many parents are seeking solutions to keep their children productively engaged and ready to hit the ground running when in-person school resumes.
