Reading with Ease: An Alternative Method: Series 1, Volume 2

By Elaine M. Peters

As a concerned and deeply engaged parent of a child with moderately severe autism and an intellectual exceptionality, discovering there was a huge gap in the education available for our daughter was challenging. This series of alternative method beginner readers was a labor of love. My determination to help my own child learn to read lead me to find research-based methods about literacy that focused on pre-teaching vocabulary sight words and phonetics paired with the use of word symbols. I coalesced my findings into a learning strategy that helped our daughter learn to read. As our daughter's reading skill increased, so did her desire to continue her own lifelong learning journey into the wonders of written language. This series comprises five learning to read procedural guidebooks that are meant to open the door to the discovery of written language for unique learners. This series of learning to read guidebooks outline a learning strategy that engages non-readers using fun and lighthearted short stories. Included for each story are word list data sheets for reading facilitators to track learning progress and success over time. There is also a Master Word List Data Sheet to track mastery of each word overall from the 20 stories.
