Description: This is a fully printed manual, student workbook, and flashcard from the WORD CONNECTIONS intervention. While the intervention itself is freely available, this kit reduced your prep and print time to ZERO. Just get ready to teach! This supplemental, targeted reading intervention program was developed by Dr. Jessica Toste and her colleagues at The University of Texas at Austin and includes research-based instructional practices to support students’ multisyllabic word reading development. There is evidence that the 40-lesson Word Connections program improves reading outcomes for students in the upper elementary grades (3rd to 5th grades). Specifically, the program has been tested with students identified as with or at-risk for reading disability. Students who participated in the intervention showed greater gains in word reading and decoding, reading comprehension, spelling, and accurate reading of both isolated affixes and multisyllabic words. One of the team's studies (Toste et al., 2019) was reviewed by the What Works Clearinghouse (WWC) in December 2021. The study met WWC standards without reservations and the program was reported to show promising evidence of effectiveness. This collection includes everything needed to implement Word Connections with your students. The program is organized in two parts: Teacher Manual and Student Materials.
