The 30-day reading plan
Ten minutes a day for thirty days. You start at the pace you test at on day 1, raise it in small steps, and take a quiz on every read so the speed you reach is one you understand at. The baseline is 150 words a minute. The mark is 750.
The plan
| When | What | How |
|---|---|---|
| Days 1 to 3 | Find your number | Take the speed test on day 1. Read ten minutes a day in Redline at your tested pace. Take every quiz. |
| Days 4 to 10 | Break the voice | Raise the pace 50 words a minute. The voice in your head starts dropping words. Keep the quiz at 80% or better. |
| Days 11 to 17 | Hold your eyes | Up 25 words a minute every second day. One drill a day for eye span. Do not look away from the red letter. |
| Days 18 to 24 | Keep it | Up 25 again when two quizzes in a row hold. Answer every retention check that comes back. |
| Days 25 to 29 | Push | Read one full chapter a day at your new pace. Try the next pace up for the last two minutes. |
| Day 30 | Measure | Take the speed test and the retention quiz again. Write the two numbers next to day 1. |
