Description:	Jet contains the five components of effective reading instruction identified by research from the National Reading Panel. Jet addresses each component by: • Phonemic Awareness – following established procedures for explicitly teaching the relationships between speech sound production and spelling-sound patterns • Phonics – providing a systematic approach for single word decoding • Fluency – using research-proven directed practice in repeated reading of words, phrases and passages to help individuals read newly encountered text more fluently • Vocabulary – featuring multiple word learning strategies (definitional, structural, contextual) and explicit teaching techniques with application in text • Reading Comprehension – teaching individuals to explicitly use and articulate multiple comprehension strategies in narrative and expository text (i.e., cooperative learning, story structure, question generation and answering, summarization and comprehension monitoring) Jet is designed around these key findings of Take Flight that include: • Students that complete Take Flight Elementary instruction show significant growth in all areas of reading skill. • Follow-up research on children who completed treatment indicates that students maintain the benefits of instruction on word reading skills and continue to improve in reading comprehension after one year. • Take Flight is effective when used in schools by teachers with advanced training in treating learning disorders. • Students with the lowest reading skills acquire the strongest gains from Take Flight instruction.
