Speed of Processing is the rate at which we perceive and process information and formulate an appropriate response. When we read and write, we are perceiving and processing an incredible array of information—letters, words, punctuation, layout—and have to choose and apply the right skills for understanding it all. Supporting students as they develop their Speed of Processing skills helps them become quick, efficient, confident, and successful readers and writers.

Speed of Processing influences:

The rate at which students can recognize and pronounce words;

The rate at which students can accurately read and write text;

How well students can understand reading material; and

How well students can plan what they want to write.
