Dear LM_Netters, I'm reposting this. I don't what happened with my first attempt. I know the best way to find out the real truth about a program--and whether it really works-- is to contact the librarians at LMNET. As of today, I have been given the opportunity to write a proposal for a K-3 reading initiative for my school through the Reading Excellence Act. I have fewer than nine days to put the proposal together. I'm looking at several programs--of course they all sound good on paper. My school is low S.E.S., Title I, etc. Has anyone had the opportunity to train or work with the "Carbo Reading Styles Program?" I need to hear from you. Also, we have been using the Spalding Phonics program for several years. The Title I schools are planning to discontinue the use because we've not had good results. Project READ has been suggested as a possible alternative. I know absolutely nothing about it, but I'm sure some of you will be familiar with it. I know you've all seen programs come and go. What are the best phonics and instructional reading programs out there? My project must be research-based and contain a phonics, reading, and writing component for balanced literacy. It must be innovative and go beyond a basal reader. Whatever program we use, I'll continue using AR as our motivational reading program. I'm using a technology/writing proposal I submitted a few weeks ago as a starting point. Please let me hear from you. I'll be glad to post a hit if there is enough interest.
