They say that most children who are read to and exposed to books from early on should pick up reading easily. Unfortunately, that isn’t true for all children. Some children struggle. No matter how hard they try, they just can’t seem to get the hang of reading.
Some kids can’t read smoothly. Even in third grade, students sound like brand new readers. Other children can’t read sight words they’ve seen a million times. Spelling tests are a nightmare.
These children will struggle with reading and spelling all the way through life if they do not get an intervention that works. As time goes by, these children will not catch up, although some schools will tell you they will.
By using The Barton Reading & Spelling System, children who are in this predicament will not only improve their reading, but with time become very good readers.
