The Phonics Museum—Establishing a Love of Reading “I absolutely love the Phonics Museum. My son Blake has mastered Language Arts because of your fabulous program. The multi-sensory approach has captured my son’s attention and kept it, all year long. Thank you for phonetic readers with substance!” —Matt & Lyn, Florida “At the beginning of our school year, I asked each of the boys what they wanted to learn about. [One son] mournfully said, ‘I want you to teach me to read, but I don’t think I’ll ever learn.’ He’s known his letter sounds for a while, and can sound out short words. But the ‘reading’ just didn’t click. Today he took a long nap, and so was wide awake when the rest of the boys were in bed. I snuggled him on my lap and got out the first reader from the Veritas Press Phonics Museum. He was hesitant, but started sounding out the title. ‘P-aaaaa-nnn. Pan. Aaaaaannnnd. And. The. Mmmmmaaaaaad. Mmmmmmmaaaaaannnn. Pan and the Mad Man!’ He read all the way through the ‘short a’ reader. Halfway through, he jumped up and ran out of the room, ‘Daddy! Daddy! I’m really reading!’” — Alexandra, Florida “Veritas Press has outdone themselves with Phonics Museum! In many ways, this program is like Sing, Spell, Read & Write; however, it has some major advantages over that classic program. The main difference is in the content of the readers. Phonics Museum’s readers contain Biblical and historical content that my seven-yearold son and nine-year-old daughter find fascinating! On the back of each book is information for parents regarding the historical context of the book, and I find it pretty fascinating myself! —Heather, The Old Schoolhouse Magazine Learn more about this program on page 5. www.VeritasPress.com CALL 1 (800) 922-5082 3 http://www.VeritasPress.com/HistoryVideo http://www.veritaspress.com/prodinfo.asp?number=000003 http://www.VeritasPress.com
