Revolutionary New Way to Motivate Kids to Read Over the Summer

May 17, 2005 -- A new home reading program, One Minute Reader, was released May 2, 2005 by Read Naturally, the Fluency Company out of St. Paul, MN.

With summer vacation rapidly approaching, parents are asking, "What can I do to encourage my child to read during the break from school" The answer is, "Use One Minute Reader!" Researchers state that students become fluent readers by reading for at least thirty minutes a day. However, many children and adolescents do not read enough to maintain and develop their reading skills. Studies show that readers regress in fluency during the summer months. Struggling readers in particular, avoid reading altogether or pretend to read. These readers need a structured yet fun way to engage in reading on a daily basis at school and at home.

For over 14 years, Read Naturally has been the pioneer in improving reading fluency through the use of research proven strategies such as modeling, repeated reading, and progress monitoring. Schools across the nation who use the Read Naturally strategy see increased motivation and accelerated achievement among their students.

At the request of parents and families of struggling readers, Read Naturally developed a motivating system to work on reading fluency at home. One Minute Reader is easy for parents and enjoyable for children. Each book in the leveled series contains high-interest stories in addition to graphs, crossword puzzles, stickers, glossary terms, and fun facts.
