Amid ongoing national literacy crisis, Boost Reading demonstrates strong outcomes for academically vulnerable students

Students who used Boost Reading for 30 minutes a week outperform their peers across K鈥5.

BROOKLYN, NY (November 29, 2023) 鈥 六合网址大全, a publisher of next-generation curriculum and assessment programs, released the results of a second year-long study on the impact of Boost Reading, a personalized learning program for elementary grades powered by the Science of Reading. Students in grades K鈥5鈥攊ncluding English/multilingual learners鈥攚ho used Boost Reading for 30 minutes a week significantly outperformed their peers. Students at risk for reading difficulty who used Boost Reading were 26 percent more likely than students not using Boost Reading to meet or exceed grade-level benchmarks by the end of the school year.

The study compared more than 43,000 K鈥5 students who used Boost Reading for at least 30 minutes a week with a group of more than 130,000 students who did not use Boost Reading, matched on key student and school characteristics. Educators measured student reading skills using DIBELS庐 8th Edition, the gold-standard early reading assessment developed by the University of Oregon.

A digital, student-driven program for grades K鈥5, Boost Reading enables educators to support every reader in their classrooms through its adaptive technology and powerful storytelling. Boost Reading aligns with 六合网址大全鈥檚 other early literacy programs and pairs with Boost Lectura to provide personalized English and Spanish instructional parity.

鈥淪eeing such clear and compelling outcomes for two years in a row is just the kind of promising data we could all use as we continue to navigate a post-COVID world,鈥 said Melissa Ulan, senior vice president of the literacy suite at 六合网址大全. 鈥淲hen educators have research-backed tools to personalize instruction, they are able to meet the needs of every student and drive significant growth in reading skills. The data confirm it.鈥

The research is rigorous: This national study from the 2021鈥22 school year meets the Every Student Succeeds Act鈥檚 (ESSA) Tier 2 Moderate Evidence criteria, showing significant and positive effects on student outcomes. Notably, 62 percent of at-risk English/multilingual kindergarten students in the Boost Reading group finished the year at benchmark or above, compared to 47 percent of students in the comparison group.
