I just wanted to give a "shout out" for the Step 2 Reading Program. I have a 9-year-old who is/was not a confident reader and has read at an emergent reading level for years. I began the Step 2 Reading Program with him less than a month ago, and what a difference it has made!  The program is so simple, but the results have been astounding. All of it has helped to build my son's confidence and fluency. Just this week, my son picked up two books on his own and read them for pleasure. This has NEVER happened before.

Because of his reading level, I had started my son in the Step 2 program, but I am sure that if I continue using the reading program, my son will quickly move into the lower school materials.  I just wanted to share because I am so excited!  M.L., Homeschool Mom

STEPS Reading Program is based on the simple idea that a student can identify a word after seeing it and defining it, particularly after multiple exposures. The tutor guides the student through a series of well-defined actions. These, step-by-step, unveil the meanings of words for the student, and help cement in the student's mind what those words look like, sound like and mean.

The program does require an adult or capable tutor who reads well, and who will be patient, non-critical , diligent and supportive. Intended to be done perhaps a 1/2 hour per day, the program can (and should) be used with any reading the student is interested in doing. Your student's reading skills will almost certainly improve using our reading program, designed for 5-6 year olds, or for that matter, "remedial" students of any age!
