BUILD: A K-1 Early Reading
Intervention
The staff of the Luke Waites Center for Dyslexia and Learning Disorders at Scottish Rite Hospital
have developed a 100-lesson reading intervention called Build: A K-1 Early Reading Intervention.
Build is a small group intervention that addresses five specific components of reading
intervention. Each component is taught developmentally using a direct, systematic, cumulative,
multisensory method of introduction and practice to meet the specific needs of Kindergarten and
first grade students struggling in reading.
The Five Components:
1. Alphabet: the identification of letters, sequencing skills and alphabetizing.
2. Letter/Sound Knowledge: the direct instruction of individual letters and sounds, leading to the
practice of reading words and sentences.
3. Phonological Awareness: the explicit introduction of the relationships between speech-sound
production, from rhyme to spelling.
4. Vocabulary: the direct teaching of strategies using context clues to infer the meaning of
unfamiliar words.
5. Comprehension: the explicit teaching of specific learning strategies used to identify the basic
components of a story.
Any certified teacher, dyslexia interventionist, or CALT is eligible to attend Shelton’s BUILD
Training and implement this intervention with K-1 Students.
BUILD Materials are NOT included in the cost of
the Shelton Training. They must be purchased
through Scottish Rite Hospital.
The purchase of the BUILD Kit is REQUIRED
in order to attend the training.
