They Sing into Reading
Songs that teach children to read
They Sing into Reading, for grades 1 and 2, is an engaging new reading program created by Matthew Glavach, Ph.D., founder of StrugglingReaders.com, and featuring Donny and Marie Osmond children’s songs. Each lesson weaves together phonics, sight words, fluency practice, and rhythm‑based timing activities that strengthen the brain pathways essential for smooth, confident reading. As timing improves, reading becomes easier, faster, and more automatic.
No program can guarantee success for every child, but this one is grounded in the latest research on how children learn. It offers a hopeful, effective path for all readers, especially those with reading challenges—and a joyful, musical beginning for any child learning to read.

COGNITIVE TRAINING MAY CUT DEMENTIA RISK FOR DECADES.
While there is no cure for dementia, growing evidence suggests certain cognitive exercises may help support brain health and reduce long‑term risk.
One of the strongest sources of evidence is the federally funded ACTIVE study which followed nearly 3,000 older adults for 20 years. Researchers evaluated several types of mental training,.
The long‑term results were striking. Participants who completed speed‑of‑processing training were about 25% less likely to be diagnosed with dementia than those in a control group.
"I want to let you know that my grandma is doing ok, and my mom is using your book with her at home!! It has been helping her to not get so upset at nights and has become a fun activity for them. While she is still getting worse, it seems to help put ease to her mind. This really has been such an answered prayer, so thank you for that!"
Matthew Glavach, Ph.D., draws on findings from the ACTIVE study in his book Brain Fitness: Processing Speed and Reaction Time, which includes structured exercises of engaging games and activities focused on rhythm, processing speed and reaction time. He wrote the book in response to the growing reliance on computerized cognitive‑training programs, which can be costly or difficult for some older adults to use.
