  1. Wilson reading system http://www.wilsonlanguage.com/FS_PROGRAM_WRS.htm By Kristin Stumpf and Kristin Lannon

  2. History • Comes from Wilson Language Training • Developed by Barbara Wilson • Idea from students, influenced program • Originally created for adults with dyslexia • Created WRS for grades 4-12 and adults who have not yet internalized sounds and word structure

  3. Description - WRS • Research-based reading and writing program • Complete curriculum for teaching decoding and encoding • Teaches structure of words (English System) • Presented systematically and is manageable • Organized and sequential • Teaches total word construction (not just phonics)

  4. Who should use Wilson Reading? • Students who struggle with decoding and spelling • Students who have no internalized the sound and syllable system for reading and spelling • Students with dyslexia • Students who speak and understand English but can not read or write it (such as ESL students) • Poor spellers • Students with “gaps” in decoding or spelling • Students unable to decode accurately: • Slow, labored readers who lack fluency • Students who know many sight words but have difficult with new words and “nonsense” syllables • Students who guess words

  5. Purpose • To teach students fluent decoding and encoding skills to the level of mastery • Student Influence

  6. Basic Features • Sight Word Instruction • Fluency • Vocabulary • Oral Expressive Language Development • Comprehension

  7. Unique Features • Research-based with over 10 years of data collected and analyzed from the school districts implementing the program • Two vocabulary levels • Criterion-based assessment built in to track progress • Capability to follow students from grade to grade • Emphasis on application • Extensive controlled texts for application

  8. Implementation • Frequency: 3-5 times/week for 60-90 minutes • Sequence of 12 steps (require mastery) • “Depending on frequency and intensity of delivery, it can take up to 2-3 years to complete entire 12-step program.” • Should be used with a literature-based comprehension program

  9. …continued • Steps 1-2: emphasize phonemic segmentation • Step 3: multisyllabic words • Steps 4-6: teach vowel consonant –e syllables, open syllables, suffix endings, and consonant –le syllables • Steps 7-12: r-controlled syllable, vowel teams, complex word structure

  10. Necessities for Program Success • Multisensory instruction • Repetition • Sound/syllable segmentation • Reading and spelling control • Pacing/mastery

  11. Strengths of Program • No limitations found through research data • Design is explicit and systematic, sequence is detailed and logical, timed guidelines for lessons • Can be used one-on-one or group • Multisensory approach (hearing sounds, using sound cards, and finger tapping)

  12. Limitations • Limits book choice for students • Uses “him” and “he” to indicate both genders • It is recommended that implementers of this program receive Wilson’s specific training ($470 per person for an online course and $1100 per person for Wilson Level I certification) • Volume of materials

  13. Ideas for Use • Easily adapted for after school programs • Ideally to be used in classes with more than one adult • Appropriate for students in grade 2 and beyond • Small groups (up to 6)

  14. State Curriculum Connections • STATE READING INITIATIVES • LouisianaLaw for the Education of Dyslexic Students The Wilson Reading System is one of six multisensory structured language programs identified as an effective program in the remediation of dyslexia. WRS is listed as a suggested program in the implementation guidelines for the Louisiana Law for the Education of Dyslexic Students. • MassachusettsBay State Reading InitiativeSeveral Wilson certified instructors worked as consultants to help integrate structured phonics teaching into the initiative. • North Carolina State Improvement ProjectThe purpose of the North Carolina State Improvement Project is to establish program support services to significantly improve the performance and success of students with disabilities in North Carolina. Wilson Reading System is one of four reading programs identified for implementation. • North Carolina NC Reading First Initiative The Department of Public Instruction has approved Fundations and Wilson Reading System as Intervention and Supplemental programs for their K-3 Reading First classrooms. For more information visit the website at http://www.dpi.state.nc.us/readingfirst/. • Pennsylvania Governor’s Institute for Educator Partnerships on Reading This Department of Education publication cites the Wilson Reading System as a resource to teach reading with structured phonics. It also includes the Wilson Reading System’s Ten Critical Points. • TexasPhonics Grant/Texas Regional Education Service CentersThe Wilson Reading System and Wilson Fundations are approved reading programs a school may select to support and enhance the implementation of the state Teacher Reading Academies for Grades K-3. https://www.wilsonlanguage.com/Evidence_of_effective.asp#StateReading
