Why is Reinforced Reading (using Pause, Prompt and Praise) so effective?
Pause, Prompt and Praise has been shown to be extremely effective in helping children improve their reading accuracy, fluency and comprehension. This very powerful set of strategies facilitates the generalisation of component skills such as phonic word attack skills and sight words, which are taught in isolation. Pause, Prompt and Praise supports a contemporary ‘balanced’ approach to reading where the emphasis on phonics is reinforced through the reading of real, meaningful text. Parents, teachers, teacher’s aides and peer tutors can use it, which makes it a very accessible and cost effective program to implement. Research has shown that some students have made average progress of six to seven months with daily reading in just two months.
