Pearson in the classroom
Sometimes students need extra help. We have developed research-based programmes proven to lead to greater student success for those failing behind.
We have a full suite of print, blended and digital services designed to help students to learn to read.
We develop services that are relevant to national curricula and the education priorities of each country, as well as ensuring that content is appropriate to the age and location of students.
Pearson in North America demonstrates the range of reading services that we can offer. The last year saw the start of significant change as three-quarters of US states adopted a new set of common academic standards. We have responded by aligning our curriculum materials to the new standards. We now can offer materials that:
Help educators effectively assess an individual student's reading ability;
Explain how Pearson reading programmes are built to help teachers easily implement the
Common Core state standards relevant to literacy
Case study: Reading Street
Reading Street is on the front line of improving student reading skills in thousands of schools in every state in the United States.
Case study: Waterford Early Learning
Pearson has partnered with the non-profit Waterford Institute for a decade.
Case study: SuccessMaker
SuccessMaker is a digitally driven set of courses tailored to the needs of the individual learner that supplements regular classroom reading and mathematics instruction.
Case study: Bug Club
In the UK, the Government has outlined its vision for the teaching of reading using systematic synthetic phonics as a means to get every child reading by the age of six.
Based on a seven-year research project conducted by Rhona Johnston and Joyce Watson in Clackmannanshire, Scotland, Pearson Primary has developed the Bug Club, a whole-school reading programme designed for use at Foundation, Key Stage 1 and Key Stage 2. It is the first phonics-based reading programme in the UK to join books with an online reading world to teach today's children to read.
