From phonetic skills and decoding to Most Common English Words to Basic Grammar Skills, Reading Horizons® offers intervention solutions that deliver foundational literacy instruction to address key skills to close reading gaps. These essential skills for automatic decoding are often overlooked in other upper-grade intervention programs. We present skills in a deliberate sequence, starting with the simplest and building to the most complex—one skill at a time.

Reading Horizons Elevate works miracles for students who were told they would never learn to read at grade level—or at all.”
