These Card Reader programs address the five reading skills identified by
No Child Left Behind and Reading First!-phonics, phonemic awareness,
fluency, vocabulary and comprehension. Designed for Early Childhood,
Language Learners, Special Education, and Parent Literacy groups, these
tools enable students of all ages and abilities to link visible letters
with the sounds they hear. The cards in each sturdy box are color-coded,
numbered and indexed for easy classroom management. This repeated,
