Although many studies have shown the efficacy of using flashcard interventions to increase sight-word reading, very few have investigated ways to increase sight-phrase reading. In the current study, a concurrent multiple-baseline across students design was used to examine the effects of a tablet-based flashcard intervention on the acquisition of…

Automaticity, defined as accurate and effortless word recognition, impacts a student's ability to read fluently. Although there is evidence that teaching students to read sight words in isolation can increase automaticity, few studies have examined the effects of interventions designed to teach students to read sight phrases.
