[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Speak for yourself when you say, “we don’t”. Perhaps you don’t. Again, it takes a high level of skill, knowledge, and confidence to execute. It’s a research-based program and it produces results when implemented with fidelity. I’m not here for a debate—just stating facts. Those who aren’t using it correctly don’t really have a leg to stand on when they speak of tge program’s shortcomings. [/quote]

I think you are speaking from Lexia headquarters. You say you can’t debate, but that is a sign of lack of knowledge. Do, please respond to my specific comments about the program’s shortcomings.

1. The picture cues they use are designed to have all kids show progress and proof that Lexia words.  By labeling a picture of a saxophone as Jazz, you confuse all users therefore showing that most kids need some sort of help from Lexia.

2. The sight words chosen aren’t useful for phonetic readers, except the readers Lexia provides.  Again, this is designed to make people buy more of Lexia’s products.
