Why Study Phonics with Dorbooks?
Because at Dorbooks, Inc. we believe that reading, like any other complex skill such as dancing or playing the piano, is most effectively taught gradually, one note, one step at a time until whole groups of notes, or steps can be combined into an entire song or dance routine. Dorbooks, Inc. publishes phonics books and phonics games teaching reading and spelling using direct, systematic phonics. Sounds and syllables gradually build into words and sentences. Phonics is the process - sight reading is the result.

Middle School Dreams...
Recently I was invited to observe a middle school special class for
7th and 8th graders who had never learned how to read. I had donated
some older editions of Phonics Pathways and Pyramid to the class for
a trial.
Not one student in this whole class of 7th and 8th graders was able to read. And then a miracle happened...read on.

HERE IT IS AT LAST!
Speaking Pathways CD
You asked for it! We listened! Speaking Pathways is a lively 35 minute CD of the same sounds and spelling patterns as Phonics Pathways, in the same order and narrated by the author, Dolores Hiskes. It is divided into two parts: Part One is "Letters and Sounds," and Part Two is "Spelling Rules and Patterns. An 8-page foldout of the same sounds is enclosed, enabling students to read the sounds as they listen to them.
Early reviews are excellent ("It is clearly enunciated" . . . "articulation is magnificent" . . . "adds another dimension to the book")
