Across Levels 1 and 2, the Edmark Reading Program provides repeated encounters with 350 frequently seen sight words and three word endings. Students begin by recognizing and reading a new word in isolation and then in the context of phrases, sentences, and stories. They use their newly learned words in a variety of reading activities, which include matching pictures to words, using manipulatives, reading story books, practicing spelling and writing, and playing interactive card and board games for reinforcement of word recognition and comprehension. This extensive practice reinforces new learning, ensures automatic word recognition, and facilitates the generalization of students’ reading skills to new and varied situations. Playing games provides the opportunity for students to practice their reading skills in a social setting and requires quick recognition and reading of the target words. Errorless learning involves prompting students to recognize new words and participate in new activities without making errors. As a student experiences success, support is gradually reduced. When they require additional practice on a target word, students can spend additional time working on their favorite activities or repeat activities in which they made errors.

Edmark Reading Program <show description>

Widely regarded as the "one that works," the Edmark Reading Program has long helped students who need an alternative to phonics.

The key to this success is the program’s use of a carefully sequenced, highly repetitive word recognition method combined with errorless learning. This approach eliminates incorrect responses and helps students view themselves as readers. The Edmark Reading Program ensures success to students of all ages who have not yet mastered beginning reading.

Students with a variety of differences and disabilities (e.g., students with developmental disability, intellectual disability, autism, hearing impairment, reading disability, or learning disability; learners of English as a second language) learn to read using the Edmark Reading Program. The Edmark Reading Program serves as the sole reading program for many students or as a supplement to a phonics-based or other type of reading program. Students from preschool through adulthood are successful with the Edmark Reading Program.
