Description:
The Barton Reading & Spelling System was designed as intense intervention for students who struggle to easily and accurately decode words when reading (despite being taught phonics), who by second grade are slow and inaccurate readers (are missing the oral reading fluency benchmarks), and who have always struggled with spelling – especially when writing sentences, stories, and compositions.
Available:
Price: $3,360.00 Taxes waived

A non-native English speaker must be able to speak and understand spoken English at a 2nd Grade level.
