Intervention Programs

At Hamilton Elementary, we’ve seen incredible results with Read Live, and we couldn’t be more impressed with the impact it's had on our students. We originally introduced the program to support our intervention students, and the growth in their reading fluency was so impressive that we quickly decided to implement it across our entire third-grade level.

Now, every third grader in our school uses Read Live—and the progress has been nothing short of amazing. Nearly all of our students are reading more words per minute, showing stronger comprehension, and even developing better typing skills thanks to the online format. We’re seeing not just higher test scores, but more confident, motivated readers who are excited to track their own progress and challenge themselves.

Read Live provides structured, engaging, and research-based support that’s easy for teachers to manage and incredibly effective for students at all levels. The built-in progress monitoring makes it easy to celebrate growth, set goals, and tailor instruction. It has truly become an essential part of our literacy program.

If you're looking for a powerful tool to boost fluency and build confident readers, Read Live is it. We highly recommend it to any school serious about improving literacy outcomes!

We've seen a remarkable transformation in our students' reading abilities since implementing Read Live in our literacy intervention program. This program has proven to be an incredibly effective tool for improving both reading fluency and comprehension—two of the most critical components of literacy development.
It's easy to implement and monitor, while students are motivated by the clear goals and interactive format. For schools looking to boost literacy outcomes, Read Live is a proven solution that delivers measurable results.

I just started using Read Naturally Live this year! I could not be more impressed. The students' reading scores, oral reading, and comprehension scores are really improving. Students of all ages (mine grades 6-12) find it easy and enjoyable, so they have no problem completing the lessons.

Our district started using this program with our ESL population this year. We like that it covers a wide variety of grade levels and phonic levels. We also have some older students using the idioms stories. It is an added bonus that these stories are all nonfiction so that we can increase background knowledge in most students. The program is easy to use, log into, and is motivational. It's a great way for kids to catch up with peers!

I have been using Read Live with my students for 2 years. Many of my students have made significant growth in a short amount of time. I highly recommend this program to teachers and schools looking to boost their students' reading fluency skills.

I only have 3 full months of using Read Live but it has been a game changer for my intervention students. They love the nonfiction stories and are excited to get their ribbons at the end of the whole story. This program is very user friendly and I love the information I get from it.

Read Live has been an invaluable tool for supplementing my kids' fluency practice. Its ability to provide individualized practice and instruction has significantly benefited my students.

One of the standout features of Read Live is its capacity to differentiate instruction. This allows me to tailor the learning experience to each student's unique needs, ensuring they receive the support they require to succeed.

Furthermore, the platform facilitates one-on-one time with students, enabling me to effectively remediate specific skills. This personalized attention has proven to be incredibly impactful in helping students overcome their challenges and improve their reading fluency.

Overall, Read Live serves as a wonderful supplement to my existing curriculum, enhancing my teaching strategies and supporting my students' reading development. It has truly made a positive difference in my classroom.

We use Read Live as an addition to our direct service. The ability to tailor Read Live stories to reinforce what is being directly taught is a bonus. The reports are helpful to help identify growth and "still needs to be supported" areas.
 

I teach in a cross-categorial classroom and Read Live certainly meets my varying needs and helps me know how to plan my interventions. It also gives me real time information for IEP development. Thanks for this great service.

Read live is easy to use and easy to implement! Read live helps to hold students more accountable as they are required to make a certain amount of growth in order to pass through a fluency passage. This allows the teacher to hold students accountable to being invested in the intervention. I also like that there are comprehension questions and retelling or quiz options that can be turned on or off to tailor needs to specific students.

I really love working with Read Live with my small groups. It is a very efficient way to help students with their individualized reading needs. I appreciate the layout of the data and how I can share that with parents.

Read Live has been instrumental for my students who struggle in reading. I have noticed an increase in fluency and comprehension with most of my students. My 3-5 grade students enjoy the program and are pleased to see their own progress and growth.

This is a wonderful program to help students increase their fluency and accuracy. We use it as an after school supplemental program for students who are testing just below benchmark on DIBELS oral reading fluency assessments. We have seen their scores steadily increase since using this program. We also use the One Minute Live program as an at home support for families who are looking for more resources to help their children.

I started Read Naturally Live during COVID shutdown and was so pleased and was thrilled with the results. My aide and I were able to work with our students online and they were able to work from home. While other people saw regression, our students that used the program made growth. The parents asked to continue using the program at home even after we returned to campus. I have continued using the program and am still PLEASED with the results. The data provided is beneficial in tracking growth and reporting on IEPs or to parents and other teachers. Thank you for a fabulous program.

Read Live has been lovely, it's • Read Naturally Live, • Word Warm-ups Live, & • One Minute Reader Live, cover all the basics, vocab, phonics, sight words, reading fluency, and comprehension. No bells and whistles, just a great learning experience that is best done with a teacher, however students can also work independently on parts of it. I pray my district adopts it not only for my SPED students, but for the elementary as well, the students would all benefit. Thanks for the introductory offer, I was able to get some of my students started on a road to reading better.

Read Live has helped my sixth-grade Special Education Students make great strides in improving their reading fluency!

I will have to admit I was very concerned at first with my students working with this program. After being a teacher for over 20 years, I have noticed that some computer programs allow students to continue to hit next or "trick" the program into thinking they have a skill that they do not. I love how the teacher has the ability to go back and adjust the students lesson. I can make adjustments to better fit the specific skill that I am wanting to target with each of my students. I can also slow down my students that have a tendency to rush through things. I think this is a good tool to use along with a phonics program.

I've been using Read Live for 6 years now, and I still love it and believe in it more and more each year. My students' fluency improves every year, most of them at least by one grade level, other students more. The students love to see their progression over time, and push themselves to read more. I love how I can customize settings for each student. I have some middle students that are still on a first grade reading level, so I change their settings in order that they don't become frustrated, and I can change them as they start to improve. I also love that I can give them a placement tests at my discretion. This has proven to motivate students more, they almost always show growth. This is a very motivational program, and very teacher and student friendly.

I have been using Read Live for over 25 years. The reason I continue to use this program is the success that I see with the students. The rereads help the students keep track of their learning by tracking their own fluency. They have a goal and try to achieve that number or higher with each reading. You should see their face light up with a big smile when they reach their personalized goal. As an incentive, they get a sticker on a chart for making their goal.
