Building a Reading Foundation
In-Class or After-School Sessions
In-class or after-school sessions provide reading lessons customized to the student’s needs. Digital lessons average 12-16 minutes, plus 4-7 minutes for the reading coach review. Students generally will have a core lesson and a fun exercise to reinforce the skills in the core lesson.
The Role of the Reading Coach
Upon completion of the digital lesson, the Reading Coach spends 4-7 minutes with the individual student. This reading coach confirms the student’s notations in the workbook, reviews the student applying the reading strategies and provides positive feedback recognizing the student’s effort and progress in learning to read.
Responding to the Largest Drop in Reading Skills since 1990 according to the NAEP
The 2022 NAEP report highlighted a devasting drop in literacy and math skills among 4th-grade students. Implementing a digital reading curriculum with reading coaches is an effective strategy to restart a student’s engagement in literacy.

The role of the reading coach
The Startup Reading program provides reading lessons through a combination of on-demand reading lessons that guide the student through the lessons in the workbook. Students in the program will typically complete three to five lessons within a week and then the Reading Coach will conduct an online meeting to review the student’s understanding of the lesson, completion of the workbook exercises, review any issues in the students understanding of the lesson and confirm the lesson plans for the upcoming week.
As the parent, you will decide on the level of support available from your family members and the level of engagement from the Reading Coach.
