Recent Results in Reading

Two boys, one in Year 4 and the other in Yr. 6, did the Davis Dyslexia Correction® Program one month apart at the end of the Queensland School Year in 2006. Both boys wanted to improve in reading.

Student A was aged 10 years and 11 months, and Student B was 10 years and 6 months. A few weeks before their Skill Development Week, they did a standardized reading test which measured the strength of their word attack skills and their ability to read for meaning.

Immediately after the program (i.e., on Day 5 of their Skill Development Week) a parallel reading test was administered to measure the progress made in that short period of time.

The results were as follows:

	Before the Davis ® Program	After the Davis ® Program	Progress in 5 days
Student A: Grade 6
Reading accuracy	7 years, 8 months	8 years, 7 months	11 months
Reading comprehension	8 years, 8 months	9 years, 8 months	12 months
Student B: Grade 4
Reading accuracy	7 years, 2 months	7 years, 10 months	8 months
Reading comprehension	8 years, 1 month	8 years, 5 months	4 months

As can be seen above, students achieve varied and very significant gains from the 5 day program. With the ongoing support provided by Dyslexia Queensland students continue to improve long after their program.
