READING SUCCESS
Children want to be readers.
They are happy to read
when they can be successful.
Peterson Reading students
start to experience success
within a few hours.
We use a rapid pronunciation program
and fast-paced classes.
We use reward management
to keep the child on task.
Students attend 3 to 5 days a week
and solve the problem
in the minimum number of months.

READING PROBLEMS?
How can a child catch up
with the good readers?
Your child needs to make up
for a 2 to 6 year difference
in pronunciation experience.
Fortunately the solution
is mostly a matter of hours in class.
Here's a numerical explanation
of the problem and the solution.
------------------------------------------ THE COMPETITION
Early readers have had hundreds
of hours of practice
at pronouncing words.
They can easily pronounce
many thousands of words
after seeing the printed symbols.
Good readers easily consume
the equivalent of 100 to 200
children's books per year.
How many words is that?
100 thirty page children's books
containing 10,000 words equals
one million words per year.
200 thirty page children's books
containing 10,000 words equals
two million words per year.
Example:
How many years have the competition
been good readers?
1 yr 1,000,000 words recognized
and pronounced
2 yrs 2,000,000 words
3 yrs 3,000,000 words
4 yrs 4,000,000 words
5 yrs 5,000,000 words
----------------------------
GUARANTEED READING
IMPROVEMENT
2 hours per day 5 days per week.
1 yr 2,500,000 words - catch-up
2yrs 5,000,000 words -
still catching up with the competition
3 yrs 7,500,000 words -
going slightly ahead of the competition
4 yrs 10,000,000 words -
staying ahead of the competition
---------------------------- PRONUNCIATION GAP
WE RECOMMEND:
A 500 hour program to make up
for a large part
of the pronunciation gap.
The program includes:
-250 hours of Peterson Reading
chorusing at 12,000 words per hour
equals 2.5 million words pronounced.
-250 hours of Accelerated Thinking
to practice organizing,
speaking and writing.

PARENTAL CONCERNS
Our procedures are different
from what many parents have thought
about reading.
Here are some of the reasons
for our success.
1.
Motivating children
with high speed successes.
2.
If students think they can
do something they will.
3.
Thousands of successes
until they know they can read.
