Speed Reading!

The Reading test is hard because you only have fifteen minutes to read the booklet. If you could do with doing this a lot quicker, SPREEDER is for you. Spreeder is a site where you can learn to speed up your reading. Check out the video clip.



There are some old SATs texts for you to copy & paste into Spreeder.

  1. Click on the Reading Texts button, then click on the doc name to open it. Copy the text.
  2. Open Spreeder & paste the text into Spreeder box. IF IT IS TOO FAST TO BEGIN WITH, CLICK "SETTINGS" (bottom right) and try 200 instead of 300.
