Although many English language learners are able to comprehend basic texts, they still face the obstacle of reading far below the optimal rate.

Research suggests that 250 words per minute is the target reading speed for fluent second language reading. In order to develop their reading speed, students need to practice reading at an accelerated pace with texts that have little or no new vocabulary that might slow them down. For this reason, Compass Publishing has developed the Reading for Speed and Fluency, a four-book series for individual or classroom use to practice accelerated reading.

Features

˙Thematically arranged reading passages to facilitate readers ’comprehension of subsequent texts within each grouping
˙Strictly controlled vocabulary throughout the book to limit the slowing effect of unfamiliar words
˙Preview activities at the beginning of each chapter to promote faster reading of passages through pre-exposure to vocabulary and content found within the chapter
˙Multiple-choice questions following each passage that allow students to self monitor their comprehension at accelerated reading speeds
˙Progress charts at the back of the book that allow students to graphically record their personal reading speed development
