1 The Future of Reading Education Lexia Reading stands as one of the most rigorously researched, independently evaluated, and respected reading programs in the world. A Summary of Published Research
2 Lexia Reading Works Research demonstrates that the technology-based Lexia Reading program makes a measurable difference in students reading success. In multiple studies published in peer-reviewed journals, Lexia Reading has been found to accelerate the development of critical foundational literacy skills in the early grades. Lexia s Strategies for Older Students has also been shown to be effective in remediating struggling readers. Key findings: The Lexia Reading program improved reading scores for students in preschool, elementary, and middle schools. The lowest-performing students benefited the most from using Lexia Reading. Title I students using Lexia Reading closed the reading gap after only six months of intervention. ELL students using Lexia Reading showed gains in early reading skills. Rigorous scientific standards were followed in conducting the studies and included the use of control groups, pretesting/posttesting, standardized and norm-referenced reading tests, and stringent statistical data analysis.

4 Building Early Literacy Skills The three studies that follow were published in Reading Psychology and show that Lexia Reading improves early literacy skills when used in conjunction with classroom reading instruction. The studies were conducted in an urban Massachusetts school district. Kindergarten Study 2008 Kindergartners using Lexia Reading significantly outperformed students in the control group on the Gates-MacGinitie Reading Test, Level PR (Pre-Reading), which measures phonological awareness, letter-sound correspondence, and listening comprehension. Gates-MacGinitie Mean NCE Scores Kindergarten Study 2008 Mean NCE Scores Lexia, 54.2 Control, Effect size: 0.48 Lexia (n=26) Control (n=45) Group differences were more pronounced for low performers.

The test measures phonological awareness, early literacy skills, letter-sound correspondence, listening comprehension, and word reading. 75 Effect size: 0.64 Lexia (n=47) Control (n=19) Kindergarten Study 2011 Low Performers Word Reading Scores Group differences were notable for the word reading subtest.

7 This study, published in 2011 in the Bilingual Research Journal, demonstrates that Lexia Reading supports English Language Learners (ELL students) in acquiring foundational literacy skills. The study was conducted in Kindergarten classes using a bilingual education model in a rural Texas district, where all students received reading instruction based on a core, phonics-based curriculum. Supporting English Language Learners GRADE Test Standard Scores ELL 2011 Total Test Scores Lexia, Control, 93.4 Students who used the Lexia Reading program in addition to core reading instruction showed greater gains than a control group in overall reading, phonological awareness, and word reading.

8 Closing the Gap Lexia Reading supports literacy gains among at-risk elementary students, as documented in a study published in 2006 in the Journal of Research in Reading. The study followed first graders in an urban school district in Massachusetts, where Lexia Reading was used to supplement a core, phonics-based reading program. Title I students in the Lexia Reading group made significantly greater gains than Title I students in a control group on the Gates- MacGinitie Reading Test, Level BR (Beginning Reading), which measures letter-sound correspondences for consonants and vowels, and basic story words. Gates-MacGinitie Mean NCE Scores First Grade Title I Students Lexia Title Control Title Effect size: 0.88 Lexia (n=15) Control (n=15) Moreover, Title I students in the Lexia Reading group closed the performance gap when compared at post-test to non-title I students in the Lexia Reading group.

9 A study published in 2009 in the European Journal of Special Needs Education shows the effectiveness of Lexia Reading beyond the elementary level. This study tracked the performance of sixthand seventh-grade remedial reading students in a Utah school district, where Lexia Reading s Strategies for Older Students supplemented intense phonics-based reading instruction.
