Books are chosen to fit the skills being taught and match the students\u2019 reading levels. To represent the diversity of our student population, Reading Partners ensures that the curriculum includes texts featuring characters and stories from a wide variety of cultural backgrounds. In 2023, we created our own set of decodable books called <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/readingpartners.org\/blog\/cover-to-cover-book-series\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Cover to Cover<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> that reflect the diverse populations of students we serve and align our curriculum with evidence-based research to help them build stronger literacy skills.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Reading Partners encourages reading at home. Since many families in the United States have few children\u2019s books at home, we give students books to read at home and build their own libraries.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div><\/section>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Reading Partners has developed a proprietary, easy-to-use, structured curriculum to help students gain the skills needed to be independent and successful readers. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":5,"featured_media":0,"parent":5246,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"inline_featured_image":false,"footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-5713","page","type-page","status-publish","hentry"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v24.5 -
