Abstract
Ten planned comparisons of pretest and posttest scores on the Slosson Oral Reading Test support the position that LD students (n = 60) regress in their reading skills when they experience extended breaks in their educational programs during the summer months. Also, a five-week summer reading program during either the first or last half of the summer can prevent this regression.Keywords
