Testimonials

"At the beginning of the year, most of my students knew only a few letters. Now I have four students reading at a 2nd-grade level, two reading at a kindergarten level, and the rest reading at a 1st-grade level. I attribute much of this success to [McREL’s Scaffolding Early Literacy]."
