The practice materials are designed to have learners become fluent, that is both accurate and automatic in their performance. We also sell several books that can be used by educators and psychologists to help guide teaching practices informed by the science of human learning.

The materials presented here are used by the students and guide the teaching process of the Morningside Model of Generative Instruction. The sections entitled Reading, Writing, and Mathematics includes both component and composite instructional curricula. The section entitled Instructional Design provides educators with the philosophy and procedures that underlie the methodology.

All of Morningside’s curricula and teaching methods are research based and/or evidence based. By research based, we mean that the curriculum materials and teaching methods are built from research on effective learning. By evidence based, we mean that the materials and methods have published evidence that student achievement improves with their use.

The Morningside Model assesses entry repertoires, and success is built by placing students where a student can be challenged, yet work at an instructional level. Fluency, the outcome arising from deliberate timed practice in all academic areas, results in foundation skills that can recombine and free the learner. If the learner has gaps in skills sets, the assessments allow for a prescription for those gaps to be filled. Performance measured in small quantities of time allow for rapid and enduring individual improvement that lead to accurate and automatic performance.

Learning success provides the opportunity for teachers to provide lots of positive feedback, as well as giving the learner an immediate and authentic sense of growing accomplishments.
