Teachers have stated they need assistance in understanding what their students will go through in the early reading process. Breakthrough to Literacy addresses all of these key issues in a way that is comfortable and nonthreatening for students and teachers. Breakthrough to Literacy children develop the prerequisites and foundation to become competent and comfortable readers, and it provides them with a window into the individual learning styles of their students. Each child can explore its experiences as much as he or she needs. Each child progresses through the curriculum at his or her own pace and in his or her own way.
Progression is entirely performance-driven.
The software component also includes a management system that provides reports to track each child's performance. This system permits the teacher to structure the appropriate lesson plans and helps to identify and communicate the problems or progress to parents and administrators. It also provides suggestions to address problem areas. Special attention is given to the use of off-line materials in integrating elements of the software into three curricular areas, general classroom activities, and home use. The Wright Group provides teachers with the necessary classroom materials and resource tools to help them integrate Breakthrough to Literacy with other classroom curricula and activities.
