Edmark Reading Program level 2

Teach beginning reading and language development to nonreaders
The Edmark Reading Program is designed for students with learning or developmental disabilities and those who have not succeeded with other reading methods. For 30 years, this trusted program has been highly regarded by teaching professionals as "the one that works," allowing most nonreaders to master basic reading skills.
The Edmark Reading Program uses a whole-word approach, with short instructional steps, consistent repetition, and positive reinforcement to ensure that students experience immediate success. Multiple learning modalities are incorporated into this highly effective process with a variety of lesson formats that keep students motivated and involved. Graphics, content, and presentation are appropriate for readers of all ages. Graphics can be turned off for adult or older students.

The Edmark Reading Program, Level 2, is an extension of Level 1 for students who have successfully completed Level 1 but are not yet ready for a more traditional reading approach. Level 2 continues to provide students with one-to-one teacher-to-student lessons. Level 2 teaches 200 words including compound words, as well as reviewing and reinforcing words learned in Level 1.
Level 2 introduces colorful new graphics and two adolescent characters who are the focus of real-life situation stories. Story Book Lessons include 100 illustrated stories with colorful full-page drawings. Comprehension questions focus students' attention on the meaning within the stories.
At ten-word intervals, review and test activities are provided allowing teachers to test student knowledge of learned words. Short instructional steps, repetition, and constant positive reinforcement build self-confidence in the student.
