Dr. Neil Anderson Says:

“I tell everyone about the Reading Horizons program when I talk about reading. My students LOVE Reading Horizons, and I love using it!”

“After this workshop I feel able to explicitly teach phonetic skills. In most teacher preparation courses or in-service sessions, how to teach phonics is not covered. I’m very anxious to begin using this new knowledge.”

New for Reading Horizons!

Reading Horizons 4.1 contains several New Features including English for Special Purposes databases that focus on five specific areas of interest: Medical, Business, Travel, Hospitality, and School. Also included are three new alternative language narrations, including: Mandarin Chinese, Japanese, and Haitian-Creole

The brand new Decoding Strategies for Literacy Development manual contains all of the skills taught in the teacher manuals, but condenses it into one manual that can be used by teachers, paraprofessionals, and tutors as a classroom manual, and for self-study.
