Easy Readers

Professor Emeritus Charles Hargis provides the tools, with a big assist from OpenAI, to aid those most struggling students who are likely to repeat third grade. Hargis recommends changing the difficulty level of the reading material not methods as now being advocated. This retired professor urges parents and educators to change to books that focus on learning to read the words that are basic to third grade level reading skill. With the correct instructional level books, the pressure to change methods of word identification disappear, and students begin to prosper and build confidence as reading skills improve. Hargis has prepared and demonstrates how to write reading material using basic words to get the struggling but potential achievers up to third grade reading level. He also demonstrates how OpenAI can assist teachers in preparing accessible reading materials so they can spend less time preparing and more time working with their beloved students. This invaluable guide was written to help reading teachers and tutors, and their students will greatly benefit.
