Abstract:
Reading speed cannot be increased simply by ‘reading’. If that were the case, all we would have to do is grab a book and read until our speed reached a thousand words per minute. Reading speed can only increase after one learns to recognize common and familiar words at a faster rate. We have developed a combination of activities that increases word recognition. The lessons will focus the student’s attention on words that they know. So, this book is designed to help individuals reach their full reading potential. For some, that will be up to 2,000 words per minute.
