Card Programs

A recent national study of reading teachers found that reading gains can be made through strengthening phonics, basic vocabulary, and comprehension skills. More class time is now spent on developing reading skills than ever before as schools realize the importance of a strong reading foundation as a predictor for future academic success. This recognition has led to more one-to-one instruction and small group work. The card reader’s multi-modal, kinesthetic, visual and auditory reinforcement helps solidify mental connections between the written and spoken word and is a useful teaching tool for assessment and literacy training. Whether teachers are working with new readers or bringing below average readers up to grade level, the card sets listed below are a proven method of instruction and review that can be self-directed or teacher-led.

Each set contains 48 full color cards with illustrations, word identifications, a teacher resource booklet and a progress chart.
