Bannatyne Reading Programs, Reading Comprehension

ALEXANDER BANNATYNE PhD

The BANNATYNE READING, WRITING, SPELLING AND LANGUAGE PROGRAM has already been proven valuable for use with, or for, beginning readers in any school, home schooling, Attention Deficit Disorders (ADD), reading disorders, learning disorders, English as a second language (ESL/ELL), dyslexics, mentally handicapped, unmotivated and hyperactive students (ADHD), gifted students, illiteracy, slow learners, teenage and adult poor readers, the disadvantaged, some partially sighted and some hearing disordered students. Most of these students progress at a much faster rate of learning to read, write, spell and comprehend than do regular students in regular schools using regular reading programs. (Remember to scroll down to see the rest of this page.)

The BANNATYNE READING, WRITING, SPELLING AND LANGUAGE PROGRAM, when all 13 Workbooks are completed by students after having been taught in exact accordance with the 13 Teacher Guides, frequently takes those students to the sixth grade level (Year 7 / Reading Age 12) of achievement or even as high as the eighth grade level (Year 9 / Reading Age 14) in far less time than do most regular reading programs, including simple phonics reading programs. Note that some of the highest achievement grade (annual) gains using the Bannatyne Program have been in the area of reading comprehension. (See: TESTIMONIALS AND STUDIES)

The Bannatyne Reading Program is a comprehensive, integrated reading program, writing program, spelling program, language program, and reading comprehension training program. The Bannatyne Reading Program is unlike any other reading programs currently available. This means you will find many features which are only in the Bannatyne Reading Program. In some Commonwealth countries the program may be referred to as: Bannatyne Programme, or Bannatyne Reading Programme.
