Reading Shape-Up is easy-to-use reading software that contains tutorials on specific reading skills followed by short reading selections. The program improves specific skills of reading comprehension, while providing teachers with measurable results. The software promotes expansion of vocabulary, and pinpoints many of troublesome topics of reading comprehension. Students do work on sequence, main idea, fact-opinion, factual recall, and inference. After an assessment, students then focus on specific skills, and work in a mixed practice format that includes crossword puzzles and two-answer questions. They receive help and contextual feedback. Students are able to track their progress and print results.
Students' scores are kept in a management system that allows teachers to view and print reports. Designed for students in U.S. grades 4 through 8 (age 8 and up). The program can be used as well by advanced intermediate ESL and adult students.
