"The
last product
I looked at was Latin & Greek
Word Roots. This one got completely
"Field Tested" as I used it to teach 7th and
8th grade students in a co-op that we were
involved with. The program was easy to use
and the students enjoyed it. Each week,
words are introduced in ABC order. Students
make study cards, do worksheets, talk about
the derivatives and use the words in their
writing. A quiz is provided to test each
week's understanding. Every three weeks, one
week is devoted to review, with interesting
word searches and other activities provided
for study. This program is completely laid
out for ease of use and my students really
enjoyed it ----- and learned a lot of new
words! "

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.
