Parents: Weak Readers
Is your child a weak reader? Are reading difficulties causing him to fall behind in school? Ultimate Phonics can help fix the problem!
Why your child has trouble with reading
Your child has trouble with reading because the human brain is not designed by nature to read. Although we are naturally provided with incredible spoken language abilities, there is no part of our brain that is designed to read printed language. This explains why learning to read is so difficult for your child and why a well designed phonics program is the key for teaching him.
What happens when we learn to read
When we learn to read we go through a gradual process of connecting the parts of the brain that recognize patterns such as letters and letter groups with the parts of the brain that handle spoken language. This is commonly known as phonics. When this learning process is complete we can rapidly scan printed language and fluently and accurately decode it into spoken language. That is, we can now read.
Phonics is the key to reading achievement
Numerous scientific studies have shown that phonics skills are the single most important predictor of successful reading achievement.

However it can still give you a good idea of their current reading level and show you how much progress they can make.
You can't leave reading to the schools
Most children never go through the process of building their reading brain and learning to skillfully read. Unfortunately, you can't just leave it to the schools. Look at the reading achievement scores for 4th graders from the National Assessment of Educational Progress (NAEP). This is the nation's report card on reading in 2007.
- Only 7% of children are excellent readers by fourth grade
- Only 24% read at grade level by fourth grade.
- 34% of fourth graders are essentially illiterate.
- The remaining 34% of eighth graders read below grade level.
