Start-to-Finish® Publishing—
Increase Reading Skills and Content Mastery
Ability Grade Level 1.5-5.5 • Interest Grade Level 5-12
When the emphasis shifts from “learning to read” to “reading to learn” do your struggling students have age-appropriate materials to support them? Do your regular education classrooms contain supplemental materials that can both increase reading skills AND build content and concept mastery? Are the students who receive small-group and one-on-one intervention provided with access to the same topical information as the students in the general education classroom or are they falling further and further behind?
