The Struggling Reader provides real help for all children learning to read, but especially those who may be struggling. Guided by the landmark National Reading Panel report and current research, these materials were developed by reading specialists who homeschool their own children.
Parents are empowered in several ways:
Testing materials provide clear insight into strengths and weaknesses of your child.
Because the tests are parent-owned, they can be administered repeatedly to all of the children in the family.
Teaching materials are often written with the test results in view. Thus no wasted time or money buying what you don’t need.
By emphasizing the needed areas for your child, there is often no need to replace your current curriculum.
Phonemic Awareness Some have called this the single-most powerful predictor of reading success.
Fluency This often-neglected skill is one of the National Reading Panel’s “Big Five” critical elements of reading.
Phonics These core skills provide the foundation for it all.
Sight Words These common, simple words should be mastered early.
Comprehension These core skills strengthen the ability to more fully understand what has been read.
