Everything you need to teach the first 140 words, Add New Skills, Double Their Reading Vocabulary, and Move Students Toward Reading Independence!
The PCI Reading Program is a research-based curriculum created
specifically to teach students with developmental disabilities, autism,
and significant learning disabilities how to read. Levels One and Two
teach 280 sight words and "real-world" nouns and verbs through a
comprehensive system of repetition, "hands-on" practice,
controlled-vocabulary reading, and high-interest activities. Nonreaders
become successful readers word by word, reading 42 engaging, full-color
books along the way. Level Three serves as a bridge between the
whole-word visual discrimination approach in Levels One and Two and the
decoding required of independent readers. To promote student success,
instruction is carefully scaffolded to introduce students to the process
of decoding by unveiling sounds that are embedded within the sight
words they already know how to read. Comprehension skills, including
setting, main idea, and cause and effect, were selected based on an
analysis of the types of questions on alternative state assessments.
FEATURES
Level One is designed as a one-on-one program and takes at least one
full school year to complete. In Level One, students learn 140 of the
most basic sight words from the Dolch and Fry lists. Students progress
from reading individual words to 8-12 word sentences. Level One includes
28 books, ranging in length from 8 to 12 pages. By the end of Level
One, nonreaders will have progressed to approximately a 1.0 reading
level.

reading level. While Level Two's focus is still on teaching words
through visual discrimination, it also introduces students to wrapped
text, common inflectional endings, such as -s, -ing, and -ed, and
compound words. Level Two teaches the words in groups of ten rather than
five.
