founder Matthew Glavach, Ph.D., teacher,
researcher, and writer, authored and
coauthored over 30 educational programs,
including High Interest Teaching
Systems (HITS), Reading with
Donny and Marie Osmond, and
Core Reading, and several research
articles.
Dr. Glavach recently wrote Core
Reading, a remarkably successful
reading intervention program. Over half
of the students made 3 to 5 years’ progress
in one year, and most students were
successful in core academic classes.

Latin and Greek Word Roots 1

PRINT A
LESSON TO REVIEW OR TRY WITH YOUR CLASS. |
As 7th grade Language
Arts teachers, we were delighted when we found
your book Greek and Latin Roots. We have
been struggling with "to spell or not to spell" in
7th grade. The traditional word lists seemed to be
working for fewer and fewer students. Because our
year long focus is on vocabulary strategies, not
just rule memorization, this book fit right in. We
have
used it all year with our 7th graders and hear
positive comments from them (amazing!) and from
other core content teachers who are picking up
these roots in content vocabulary as well. We are
considering using Book 2 with 8th grade next year.
Thank you for filling this need so well.

Dr. Glavach's program, Core
Reading, has broken the myth that you can't teach
reading at the high school level. He has gone beyond
traditional reading programs and developed a highly
effective linguistics program to increase students' reading
skills. Many of our students come to the reading lab with a
third or fourth grade reading level, and after a semester or
year in the program, all students improve their reading and
many advance to grade level or above.

Programmed Spelling Review,
 |
Improves students' spelling, word attack, and
reading |
Excellent for ESL Students
The teachers in our
building who have used the Programmed Spelling Review
like it very much. Generally, we use the lessons with our
ESL students, although some teachers have also used the
tapes with native English speakers who happen to be
struggling with reading and writing. Teachers like the
lessons because they are very self-directed and students can
move at their own pace. Not only do the students take in the
information by reading and writing, they also hear the words
being spoken.
