Teaches students of all ages the basics of phonics with a time-tested, foolproof method This tenth edition of the best-selling book teaches reading using sounds and spelling patterns. These sounds and patterns are introduced one at a time, and slowly built into words, syllables, phrases, and sentences. Simple step-by-step directions begin every lesson. Although originally designed for K-2 emergent readers, this award-winning book is also successfully being used with adolescent and adult learners, as well as second language learners and students with learning disabilities. Wise and humorous proverbs encourage virtues such as patience, perseverance, honesty, kindness, compassion, courage, and loyalty. Offers help for all students including those with learning disabilities or very short attention spansIncludes extensive examples, word lists, and practice readings that are 100% decodableUses a multisensory method that benefits all learning styles This bestselling, much-loved book offers a complete approach to teaching phonics and reading for a fraction of the cost of other programs.
Now in its fifth edition, "Reading Pathways" (with help from Dewey the Bookworm) offers an easy-to-use, highly effective approach to teaching reading accuracy and fluency to students of all ages, using a unique pyramid format. Reading pyramids begin with one word and slowly build into phrases and sentences of gradually increasing complexity. As the student moves from the pinnacle to the base of each pyramid, the phrase or sentence becomes more interesting and expansive, and the student's confidence grows with each line completed. Progressively building up the amount of text per line increases eye span, strengthens eye tracking, and develops reading fluency. The book also features more challenging multisyllable word pyramid exercises and games to further develop fluency and vocabulary. Learning to read long words by syllables removes the fear and mystique of multisyllable words and helps students build the strong vocabulary so critical for success in reading and writing. "Reading Pathways" is ideal for school, tutoring, and home use, and has already proven successful with K-2 emergent readers, second language learners, and students with learning disabilities. This unique approach has won rave reviews from teachers, parents, and English language learners all over the world. Previous editions were entitled "Pyramid Reading Exercises," Praise for "Reading Pathways" "With clarity, interest, humor, and precision, Dolores has
offered a way out of the darkness of illiteracy. I am pleased to
endorse [her] books as some of the finest instructional materials
for teaching children and adults to read that I have
reviewed." "Our organization, Kids Read, offers tutoring to struggling or
non-reading second graders in the public schools. Dolores Hiskes's
materials are our most powerful tools for helping kids achieve
confidence and independence in reading . . . The pyramid practice
in Reading Pathways strengthens eye tracking and gives learners
immediate practice with the concepts they just learned in a bigger
setting. Non-readers find initial success in the presentation of
short vowel words and stories. The pyramid stories provide an
opportunity for multiple readings of the words and phrases, an
exercise which is very empowering for emerging readers." "Reading Pathways led my children so gently through the pyramids
that they were reading big words before they knew it! This is a 'no
pain' approach to giving children the extra practice that helps to
develop a strong reader." "My students love the multisyllable word pyramids and feel proud
they can finally read those mysterious long words. It's so
beautiful to see their self-esteem grow. This is what makes
teaching rewarding. Thank you!"
