Abstract

The author examined the relationship between the assistence given with an independence clue book, and an individual reading instruction by the author, with a reading text selected by the student. This design also involved a built in success model with repeated readings. The results, in the units of words per minute, were graphed and became a visual reinforcement for success. This was a single subject design and included twenty minutes of individual reading instruction per day with a pre and post-test evaluation along with daily and weekly comparisons. The student was tested on a Curriculum-Based Assessment.
