REWARDS is an acronym for Reading Excellence: Word Attack and Rate Development Strategies. The program is designed to teach flexible strategies for fluently reading long words consisting of 2-8 syllables in content area texts. A further expectation is increased comprehension as a result of an increase in vocabulary and fluency. Rewards Secondary is for students in grades 6-12. The focus of REWARDS Secondary is on fluency-building through the development of flexible decoding skills. The program incorporates instruction in advanced phonics or word analysis, fluency and vocabulary. The instructional design feature of the REWARDS program includes instruction that is explicit and systematic, with a high level of teacher/student interaction.
