Adaptive Learning for Accelerating Reading Proficiency
As Unique as Every Student
Direct, Explicit, Sequential, Cumulative Instruction
SuccessMaker Reading provides an adaptive learning experience with explicit instruction, guided practice, and independent practice in phonological awareness, phonics, fluency, vocabulary, and comprehension.
Gain Hours of Instructional Time
SuccessMaker Reading never stops instruction to administer an assessment so students and teachers gain hours of instructional time during the year. SuccessMaker Reading personalizes learning for each individual student. Students are placed into the program at their just-right starting point, and the program’s adaptive engine takes over from there, adjusting what a student sees next based on each and every response.
Real-Time Growth Insights
District and school leaders as well as teachers have access to real-time insights into student performance on reading curriculum expectations and specific literacy skills. This allows for the monitoring of growth continuously throughout the school year — without waiting for standardized test/benchmark assessment to see growth. This immediate feedback supports timely intervention and instructional adjustments, enhancing student success and ensuring alignment with provincial and district goals.
Standards and Skills Assignments Prepare Students for Grade-Level Instruction
With SuccessMaker Reading skills assignments, teachers can provide targeted adaptive practice to reinforce learning, meeting student individual needs. Options are endless — create an adaptive assignment focused on vocabulary and grammar to support multilingual learners, or use the adaptive assignment option to prepare for an assessment task.

Skills and Standards Assignments
- Explicit Instruction and Guided Practice: Every SuccessMaker Reading lesson begins with explicit instruction on a reading skill, followed by guided practice where students receive immediate instructional feedback.
- Scaffolding: Students receive immediate instructional scaffolding when working through SuccessMaker Reading lessons.
- Reteaching: SuccessMaker Reading automatically adapts to student performance and reteaches concepts students haven’t yet mastered.
- Spiral Review: SuccessMaker Reading includes systematic, cumulative, spiral review of all reading skills learned.
- Targeted Print Resources: SuccessMaker Reading provides targeted print lessons so teachers can deliver additional explicit instruction in small groups when students need more support with a specific skill. Print Partner activities help students to generalize and extend their learning.
- Phonological Awareness: Phonological awareness is the ability to notice, think about, and work with the sounds in spoken language. Phonological awareness includes word awareness, rhyme awareness, syllable awareness, onset and rime awareness, and phonemic awareness.
- Phonics: Phonics is the ability to associate the sounds of spoken language with the letters of written text. Letter-sound correspondences, decoding, and encoding are skills that students learn and practise as they grow in their phonics abilities.
- Fluency: Fluency is the ability to read words at an appropriate speed, accurately, and with expression. These three components of fluency are often known as rate, accuracy, and prosody. Strong fluency requires that students are able to read with automaticity.
- Vocabulary: Vocabulary is the knowledge of the meaning of words and the ability to apply that knowledge to text. Vocabulary is often deeply intertwined with background knowledge. Content vocabulary is specific to a subject area, whereas academic vocabulary is used across multiple subject areas.
- Comprehension: Comprehension is the ability to read, process, and understand the meaning of written text. A common formula for comprehension is: Word Reading + Vocabulary + Background Knowledge = Reading Comprehension. Comprehension is a skill that grows throughout a person’s lifetime.
- On-Level Students: SuccessMaker Reading provides appropriate differentiation for students performing on grade level in reading.
- Tier II/Tier III Intervention/Striving Readers: SuccessMaker Reading intervenes at just-right intensity for students who are not yet reading at grade level.
- Gifted Students/Advanced Readers: SuccessMaker Reading challenges high achievers and gifted students extending the learning with targeted next steps.
- Special Education: SuccessMaker Reading supports IEP goal-setting. Educators can automatically set a target individualized growth goal for each student, and adjust the amount of time each student spends in the program to achieve their target learning goal..
- Multilingual Learners: SuccessMaker Reading offers embedded support for multilingual learners. The program provides first language support with translations in more than 60 languages and “Read to Me” audio.
- Prepare Students for Grade Level Instruction: Skills assignments are a great way to help students access grade-level instruction. While a student works within their zone of proximal development in the personalized learning course, educators may assign grade-level content to support students in accessing grade-level instruction.
- Prepare for End-of-Year State Tests: It’s easy to assign targeted practice for specific standards that are assessed on high-stakes end-of-year tests. SuccessMaker Reading features common TEI (technology enhanced items), which help students become familiar with the format of online tests.
- Target Specific Skills or Standards: Do you have multilingual learners who could use more targeted practice with specific vocabulary or grammar skills? Do you have a few students who need more support with spelling? It’s easy to assign targeted skills practice based on individual learning needs with SuccessMaker Reading’s custom course option.
- Easy-to-Use Summer Learning Options: SuccessMaker Focus provides prebuilt custom courses for Grade 1-8 that focus on reading priority skills from the prior grade level. These prebuilt courses are a great solution for summer learning to help students prepare for the next school year.
