🔬 Research & Evidence

Our program is grounded in rigorous reading science

Evidence-Based Instruction

READEE is built on decades of research about how children learn to read. We don't follow fads— we follow the science.

The Science of Reading

Research consistently shows that effective reading instruction includes:

  • Phonemic Awareness: The ability to hear and manipulate sounds in spoken words
  • Phonics: Understanding the relationship between letters and sounds
  • Fluency: Reading with speed, accuracy, and expression
  • Vocabulary: Knowing the meaning of words
  • Comprehension: Understanding and thinking about what is read

READEE systematically addresses all five of these critical components.

Research Foundations

Our program draws on findings from:

  • The National Reading Panel Report (2000)
  • The Simple View of Reading (Gough & Tunmer, 1986)
  • Scarborough's Reading Rope framework
  • Decades of cognitive science research on learning and memory
  • Evidence-based practices from structured literacy approaches

Program Effectiveness

Independent studies of READEE have found:

  • Significant gains in phonemic awareness and phonics skills
  • Improved reading fluency and comprehension
  • Increased reading confidence and motivation
  • Strong results for struggling readers and English language learners

Continuous Improvement

We regularly review new research and refine our program to reflect the latest evidence. Our commitment is to ongoing improvement based on both research findings and data from our users.
