Here’s Why It Works
1
Superkids provides the right reading instruction at the right time.
More and more administrators are learning that primary-grade teachers provide the strongest reading instruction when the teachers choose the programs that best meet the needs of their own students. No program in the market today teaches children to read more effectively than Superkids does. With Superkids, children are fluent, automatic readers by the time they leave second grade.

Extensive reading research has overwhelmingly validated the importance of Superkids’ systematic, phonics-based instruction for the primary grades (K—2).
Phonics should not be taught as a stand-alone subject area or added on to another program. Mixing different types of instruction confuses children, slows their decoding fluency, and diminishes their comprehension.

The Superkids Reading Program is a comprehensive reading and language arts curriculum with phonics at its core.
As Superkids builds strong phonics and decoding skills, it simultaneously integrates instruction in comprehension, vocabulary, and fluency. The program also develops students’ skill in writing, spelling, grammar, usage, and mechanics. As a result, Superkids produces students who can read and spell accurately and fluently, readers who can comprehend an author’s ideas, and writers who can express their own ideas with confidence and precision.

Superkids is an efficient, cost-effective reading program.
Because reading, writing, spelling, grammar, and handwriting are seamlessly integrated, teachers have everything they need with no extra materials or planning required. Put simply: what is bought is taught.

Superkids is easy to teach and understand.
Superkids has a clear instructional path that allows teachers to communicate key concepts and reinforce key skills throughout each grade level. Careful, explicit instruction builds on previous lessons in a spiraling sequence, reviewing and reinforcing known skills as new skills are introduced. This clear instructional path also enables children to see how they are learning while they are learning.
