QuickReads Technology Edition
Pearson Learning Group (www.pearsonlearning.com) has released the latest version of QuickReads Technology Edition, an instructional program for developing content-rich vocabulary and consistent comprehension abilities in level 2-5 readers by using grade-level, high-frequency words and phonics/syllabic patterns that have been mastered by students at that grade level. The latest release, Version 3 (also available in a network edition), provides Spanish vocabulary help for ESL/ELL learners and accessibility features approved by the Center for Applied Special Technology. QuickReads features nonfiction science and social studies texts that help students build fluency, comprehension, and background knowledge, while the speechrecognition technology helps students pronounce difficult, misread, or unknown words. The complete program, with 12 copies each of books 1-3, is $344.95.
