Foundational
Literacy for K–12 Special Education
Effective instruction in Special Education requires a personalized approach, supported by the right data. Reading Horizons equips educators with the knowledge and resources to reach each learner’s reading goals.
Through explicit instruction based on the science of reading, age-appropriate decodable and Lexile-leveled passages, and software-supported assessments, our program actively engages exceptional learners of all ages —increasing their success and motivation.
Reading Horizons® is proud to have its foundational literacy programs endorsed by the Council of Administrators of Special Education (CASE). This endorsement reinforces Reading Horizons’ position as a trusted resource in special education, supporting administrators and educators in delivering high-quality reading instruction to all students.
Adapting Reading Instruction to Fit Every Need
Designed for diverse student populations, our unique approach integrates differentiated instruction, a marking system that highlights decoding and spelling patterns, and a blended learning model combining direct teaching with age-appropriate software and practice modules. With built-in real-time data, teachers can more effectively target instruction and tailor depth and pacing to meet the individual needs of students with exceptionalities.

Intervention for Grades 4+
Empowering older students, our program helps teachers integrate foundational literacy skills alongside grade-level content, bridging literacy gaps while fostering progress in both areas.
Resources for English Learners in Special Education
Special Education students—and the educators who support them—often face exponential challenges when learning to read. To support multilingual learners, the program offers real-time AI translation in over 80 languages and a pronunciation tool designed to help students master English phonemes.
The Reading Horizons® method incorporates the components essential for newcomers and students with limited formal education beginning with phonology and sound-symbol correspondence.
Many schools face significant challenges in delivering effective literacy instruction for the number and diversity of special education students. Success starts with equipping teachers through comprehensive training and support. Our program combines professional learning, guided lesson materials, and differentiated practice tools, with virtual and in-person training, coaching, and 24/7 accessible resources that ensure administrators can confidently achieve successful implementation.
