Another A+?

Following American Education Corporation’s A+ series of classroom programs, the company is adding a pair of early reader programs. Called Storybook Phonics I and II, the new titles are a narrative-based approach to helping kids read fluently. Aimed at K-through-2nd grade and 1st-through-2nd grade students, each series has 15 stories for the teacher and student to work with. Each passage can be read for the students while the words are highlighted on the screen. For the kids, there are also games, study guides, tests and essays. AEC offers a complete curriculum planning manual with the product for teachers.
