Reading and Spelling | Pure & Simple
(Pre-Unit PDF Download)

Reading and Spelling Pure & Simple is a thoughtfully designed, well-crafted reading program that takes students from being struggling readers to being confident, full-fledged readers in 90 lessons. The lessons teach the letter and sound patterns of the English language; students learn to associate alphabet letters and letter combinations with their assigned sounds. Concepts are explained in terms of “patterns” rather than “rules”—a far less intimidating approach for most students. Spelling and word comprehension are emphasized throughout the curriculum.

Whether your student is a beginning reader or a struggling reader, they will enjoy and benefit from the lessons.  In the classroom, this text provides for small group (centers and reading groups), and one-on-one instruction. Teachers using this curriculum have been pleased by the dramatic improvement their students have shown on reading tests. In your home, this versatile program will empower you to teach your student to read from start to finish.  With applications for special education students (those with dyslexia, ADHD, dysgraphia, or sensory processing issues), ESL, and ELL students coming from a foreign language, and adults and teens struggling with literacy, this program will lay the foundation and guide you step by step to create a relaxed, confident, and competent reader.   Easy to use.  Simply Works.
