Improves Silent Reading Speed
FLRT is a reading fluency tool that has been designed to systematically increase reading speed while ensuring proficient reading comprehension. Layering these component skills provides each student with educationally sound practice in fluency.

Reading can be a laborious task for students who read slowly. The FLRT reading fluency tool provides visual discrimination practice while learning to read sight words and high frequency words. Continued reading fluency practice using FLRT actually trains the reader’s eyes to move from left to right efficiently and to sweep in one movement. For students who use FLRT, school becomes easier, reading becomes more meaningful, vocabularies explode and higher education becomes attractive, preventing drop-outs.  Students improve their reading speed from 50 to over 300 words per minute.
