Reading Pathways by Dolores G. Hiskes
5th edition

Reading Pathways, 5th ed..............................(144 pages) $24.95..........
Reading Pathways offers a unique, highly effective approach to teaching reading, phonics, and vocabulary. The book consists of reading pyramids that start with one word and gradually build into short phrases and then complete sentences of increasing complexity. Also featured are mini-pyramid exercises where two words build by syllables into multi-syllable words, and are then used in a sentence. The exercises in this book help beginning readers increase eye span, strengthen eye tracking, build vocabulary, and develop ease and fluency in reading. Progressively building up the amount of text per line removes the fear and mystique of multi-syllable words, and helps students build the strong vocabulary so critical for success in reading and writing.
