Learn Reading Workbook 2: Lessons 11-20 (Learn Reading Workbooks)

The Learn Reading Program is a real-world reading acquisition program for learners of all ages. It uses a frequency-of-use teaching model, introducing graphemes and phonemes in the order they appear in everyday English print. The lessons are multi-sensory and adhere to an Orton Gillingham foundation. The curriculum includes comprehensive instruction in phonemic awareness, phonics application, controlled blending, comprehension, vocabulary, sight words, fluency, expression, phrasing, and all aspects of proper reading instruction. April McMurtrey, the developer of the Learn Reading program, is a trained dyslexia specialist and has created this program to provide the necessary fundamental reading skills for even the most struggling readers, as well as keeping it challenging enough for more advanced or mature students. Each lesson in the Learn Reading program includes several short assignments, which keep busy minds and hands focused, and success and esteem high. In addition to the intense and intentional instruction, there are also games and activities incorporated into each lesson. Even sketching and/or acting out what the student is reading about is encouraged, to facilitate comprehension and to keep learning fun! Your student will also learn the 3 key aspects of the "McMurtrey Method" which are game changers in a young or struggling reader's life. They will learn how to use a physical reading guide and what is called "pencil reading". This teaching method is what has helped even the most struggling readers finally break through and achieve reading success! The McMurtrey Method also includes the vowel placement strategy - which helps the reader understand what a vowel will say based on where it falls in a word, and the letters that surround it. The McMurtrey method will also teach the instructor the "give a goal" strategy which will help students learn HOW to read instead of how to guess.The Learn Reading Program is designed for all learners, at all ages and at all levels. The 80 lessons, which include step-by-step instructions for both teacher and student, will truly build any learner's strengths in all areas of reading acquisition. Read more
