The National Reading Panel (2000) established the most effective ways to ensure appropriate reading growth in students. TimeWarp Plus is designed to capitalize on the most current and convincing scientifically-based research in reading:

	daily instruction in the five essential components of reading
	explicit, systematic instruction in small, same-ability groups
	DIBELS-equivalent progress monitoring through Vital Indicators of Progress (VIP)

Grounded in research on summer reading loss validated for over a decade, reading instruction in TimeWarp Plus is supported by additional language arts strands: listening and speaking, spelling, and writing, interwoven in the daily adventures.
