Provide evidence-based literacy intervention with SMARTER Intervention.

Deliver Literacy Intervention with Confidence

Help students close literacy gaps with effective, structured instruction, without spending hours planning and piecing lessons together.

One cohesive system. Every component. Lifetime access.

You know your students need effective literacy intervention.

The research is clear.

Systematic, explicit literacy instruction across phonological awareness, phonics, fluency, vocabulary, comprehension, and writing can help students close persistent literacy gaps.

The harder part is knowing how to turn that research into the right instruction for the students sitting in front of you.

Literacy intervention can leave you constantly second-guessing:

  • Where should this student begin?

  • Which skills should I prioritize right now?

  • How do I fit everything they need into the time I actually have?

  • How do I know whether our intervention is working?

And trying to answer those questions on your own takes a toll.

  • Hours spent searching for and adapting materials

  • Constantly piecing together phonics, fluency, comprehension, and writing resources

  • Less confidence that everything is working together toward the same goal

  • Less time and energy for the students sitting in front of you

What if you had a clear path from student data to effective instruction without spending hours building it yourself?

SMARTER Intervention is a systematic curriculum to allow you to teach with cohesion.

That’s exactly what DSI was built to do.

Delivering SMARTER Intervention brings assessment, explicit instruction, and progress monitoring together in one complete intervention system, giving you a clear path from What do these students need? to What should I teach next? to Is it working?

Each lesson provides systematic, explicit instruction across phonological awareness, phonics, vocabulary, fluency, comprehension, and writing. A consistent lesson structure helps students build and connect skills over time, while ready-to-use materials make high-quality intervention easier for educators to deliver.

And because the instructional pathway is already built, you can spend less time searching for resources, assembling lessons, and second-guessing your plans, and more time responding to the students in front of you.

95% of DSI educators report saving time on planning, with more than 30% reporting that DSI saves them five or more hours each week.

Effective for students. Sustainable for educators.

How It Works

Delivering SMARTER Intervention is designed to provide targeted instruction.

Start with a Quick Placement Screener

You will start by administering a quick placement screener to your students that will help identify foundational decoding and spelling gaps.

1

Learn Which Level Will Be the Best Fit

You will enter Placement Screener Results into the Placement Scoring Tool to learn which level will provide the best starting point for your students.

2

Start Using High-Impact Lessons

Each lesson follows the same routines to target all five core components of reading + writing. This makes it easy for you to find a flow and helps students solidify their understanding.

3

Monitor Progress

Use the built-in progress monitoring tools to measure growth + use the goal banks to communicate progress. Perfect for RTI, MTSS, and IEP progress monitoring.

“The best thing about the Delivering SMARTER Intervention Program is the growth of my students. I am so glad I found this program…it has all of the components of a structured literacy lesson in one place.” - Lisa G., Special Education Teacher

Real Results. Real Growth. Real Impact.

In our most recent year-long study, students using Delivering SMARTER Intervention saw an average of:

12 Standard Score Points in a Year

Enough to move students from the below average to the average range on standardized reading and spelling assessments. That kind of growth allows students to exit Tier 2/Tier 3 interventions, and in many cases, graduate from IEPs — closing gaps that once felt impossible.

For many students, this level of growth equates to nearly two full grade levels of growth in an academic year.

Bar graph titled 'Fundamental Literacy Index' showing standard scores across three time points. The Y-axis ranges from 70 to 90, and bars are color-coded in yellow. Time Point 1 has a score around 74, Time Point 2 around 84, and Time Point 3 around 87. Significant differences (p < .001) are noted between the time points with error bars visible.

"Every single one of my students has shown growth. For them to find those wins and be so proud of that growth they are able to show, it just blows their minds." - Christie M., MTSS Team Chair

All of the children I work with have demonstrated improvements in their reading and writing skills. I love the program as it gives me a clear path to go in, but still allows me the flexibility to use my knowledge to adapt the lessons for each student.” - Stephanie F., SLP

in the classroom,

“It's the only resource that gives well-rounded intervention and literacy instruction. You can find so many things for phonological awareness and phonics, but it is harder to find programs that address vocabulary, syntax, comprehension, writing, etc. I love having it all in one place to access!”

— Meredith L.

SMARTER Intervention helps SLPs tie literacy into their sessions.

as an SLP,

“As a speech-language pathologist and learning specialist, I cannot begin to tell you how much I have benefited from this program. I have completed a range of reading programs, and SMARTER Intervention has helped me reflect on what I know and has taught me so much more.”
