 Rationale

Reading is one of the essential skills which every child should learn
and appreciate. It will start from having the pupil decode the basic letter sounds,
blend two to three letter-words and rhyme complex syllables.

As part of continues quest for better reading tool, basically on

decoding of beginning readers and pupils with reading difficulties, this Accelerated
Reading Technique Tool or ART Tool is created to address the end.

ART Tool is properly sequenced from short, simple words to difficult

to pave the way for smooth sailing reading instruction and intervention while tracking
child’s reading pace. Also it enhances pupils’ familiarity to words with vowel-
consonant-vowel patterns.

Every word found in the tool has been keenly chosen to parallel on the
required words for every letter sound which are within the context of letter sound
taught. Also these words come in diversified type just enough to test the child.

This new developed tool can be more effective to the learners when
given by a teacher with excellent enunciation of words and dedication towards his/her
task.

Great reading tool with dedicated teachers, our big goal of raising a
culture of fast decoders in the school will eventually realized.
