BUILD: A K-1 Early Reading Intervention Training for Educators

Build | A K-1 Early Reading Intervention | The Written Word

To meet the needs of K-1 students who have been identified as at risk for dyslexia

BUILD: A K-1 Early Reading Intervention

 

To meet the needs of K-1 students who have been identified as at risk for dyslexia, the staff of the Luke Waites Center for Dyslexia and Learning Disorders at Scottish Rite for Children has developed a 100-lesson reading intervention called BUILD: A K-1 Early Reading Intervention. BUILD is a small group intervention that addresses five specific components of reading instruction. Each component is taught developmentally using a direct, systematic, cumulative, multisensory method of introduction and practice to meet the specific needs of kindergarten and first-grade students struggling with reading.

The five components of BUILD: A K-1 Early Reading Intervention:

 

1. Alphabet: the identification of letters, sequencing skills, and alphabetizing

2. Letter/sound knowledge: the direct instruction of individual letters and sounds, leading to the practice of reading words and sentences

3. Phonological awareness: the explicit introduction of the relationships between speech-sound production, from rhyme to spelling

4. Vocabulary: the direct teaching of strategies using context clues to infer the meaning of unfamiliar words

5. Comprehension: the explicit teaching of specific learning strategies used to identify the basic components of a story
