Language and reading skills are critical for all students, impacting their ability to benefit from instruction, follow directions and participate in class discussions. Strong linguistic skills also provide a critical foundation for building reading, writing, and other academic skills. After Fast ForWord use, students at Bok Academy made significant gains in their reading and math achievement. These results replicate other studies and suggest that using the Fast ForWord products strengthened the students’ foundational skills and better positioned them to benefit from the classroom curriculum.
