Phonics Help and Strategies for Teaching Struggling Readers

Ultimate Phonics gives you the phonics help and strategies you need for your struggling readers. It's a proven way to provide the extra phonics instruction needed to bring lagging students up to grade level.

Phonics is the key to reading achievement

Scientific research has shown that strong phonics skill is the most important predictor of successful reading achievement. Your children or students will never achieve good reading comprehension and high test scores without fluent and accurate decoding. Ultimate Phonics is a great teaching tool that helps you strengthen these critical skills with minimal investment.

Phonics skills and reading achievement

Find out if we can help

You can use our free 10 minute reading test to easily check your students' reading ability. Of course most K-3 students can't be expected to successfully read the entire test, since it ends up around a fifth grade level vocabulary. However it will still give you a good idea of their current reading level and show you how much progress they can make.

The ultimate reading supplement

Ultimate Phonics isn't intended to replace your current K-3 reading curriculum. Most balanced reading programs already have a phonics component. However the balanced phonics component usually isn't sufficient to successfully teach all your students. Ultimate Phonics gives you an easy, affordable way to add industrial strength phonics for students needing extra practice.

Start with your weakest readers

Using our reading test or your own testing, identify your worst readers. These are students that can clearly benefit from additional help, so start using Ultimate Phonics with them. As you become familiar with the program and see the results, you can expand the number of students using the program according to your judgment.
