How Does One Minute Reader Work?
Cold Read

The reader starts the timer and reads for one minute. A graph displays

the reader's cold-timing score, establishing a baseline for progress

monitoring that motivates the reader to improve.

Read Along

The reader quietly reads along with a recording of the story, typically

three times. This step actively helps the reader learn new words and

learn proper pronunciation, expression, and phrasing.

Read Alone

The reader practices reading the story independently until they can read

it accurately and with expression. Practicing helps the reader improve

fluency, master difficult words, and understand the story.

Quiz & Joke Jumble

The reader answers questions about the story. Correct answers help to

solve the book's Joke Jumble.
