The CAPIT Solution and Methodology
Improving and Simplifying Reading Instruction

The CAPIT Method—created by CAPIT’s founders, Eyal and Tzippy Rav-Noy—is a profound departure from traditional instructional approaches and is based on the latest reading science, cognitive science, and years of classroom experience and testing.

The Rav-Noys learned that the standard reading curriculum has become increasingly complicated over the years, making it hard for teachers to teach and challenging for students to learn. They further noticed that most curriculums conflate reading instruction with facts about reading—as if every fact about reading should be included in reading instruction.

So they set out to revolutionize and simplify reading instruction.

To design and empirically validate their methodology, the founders became de facto KG teachers, testing each design in the classroom with real students. Being parents of two kids with severe reading struggles has provided them empathy and perspective. Today, teachers and students across the country benefit from the CAPIT Method.

Below we summarize the fundamental differences between the CAPIT Method and other traditional approaches to reading instruction. We invite you to learn more about the research that guided the development of the CAPIT Reading Curriculum.
