Since one of the goals in teaching children to read is to instill a love of reading, this is an attitude that we want to try to change.

Verticy Learning: Curriculum Designed for Struggling Readers, Writers, and Spellers

Verticy is available as a supplemental reading or math program or as a full homeschool curriculum. Each version enables you to use proven multi-sensory instructional techniques to teach your child in a unique way.
