THE SCIENCE BEHIND EBLI ISLAND READING ADVENTURES
Our app combines important cognitive research on how children learn to read with innovative activities in an immersive learning experience. We develop confident readers by helping learners to progressively build necessary reading and writing skills including:

• Letter sound recognition (phonics)
• Proper pronunciation of letter sounds
• Beginning, middle, and ending sounds
• Correct handwriting
• Spelling
• Blending
• Sight Words
• Vocabulary
• Fluency
• Comprehension

---Skills and Concepts For Educators---

Skills
- Segmenting: pulling letter sounds apart
- Blending: pushing letter sounds together
- Peterson Handwriting: correct letter formation
- Fluency: reading smoothly with inflection

Concepts
- Words are made up of sounds
- Teaching the most common spelling for each sound (each 1 letter spelling has a sound that it most commonly represents)
- Words must be read from left to right
- Letters must be written from top to bottom, and from left to right
- 1, 2, 3, or 4 letters can spell 1 sound
- Repetition of what was learned in order for learner to become accurate and automatic
- Progressing to reading smoothly while accurately reading all the words


---The EBLI System---
EBLI - Evidence-Based Literacy Instruction was created in 2003 and is a system that teaches learners of all ages and ability levels to reach their highest potential in reading. EBLI has been implemented in over 200 schools and has been continuously refined through training and coaching thousands of classroom teachers, community tutors, and remedial reading specialists. EBLI was developed from what research has shown to be necessary to teach anyone of any ability level to reach their highest potential in reading and writing as well as from over a decade of working individually with clients of all ages and ability levels at Ounce of Prevention Reading Center in Flushing, MI. We have helped thousands of kids learn to read, and we can help yours too.
