Abstract

The purpose of this study was to study the effects of a model lead test (MLT) format
along with a reward system for teaching sight words. The participant was a third grade student
with learning disabilities enrolled in an elementary resource room. The number of correct sight
words was the major dependent measure. These data were gathered before instruction and after
instruction. A multiple baseline design across word sets was utilized. The outcomes indicated
that the MLT with flashcards and a reward system were effective in improving the sight word
recognition. Follow up data indicated that these gains were maintained. The efficacy of
employing such procedures in the classroom setting was discussed.
