Dr. Benita A. Blachman and Dr. Darlene M. Tangel of Syracuse University, authors of the best selling Road to the Code, a research-based phonemic awareness curriculum for early literacy instruction, have published their new curriculum to develop accurate and fluent word identification. Road to Reading is a single volume curriculum to target instruction in phonological awareness, the alphabetic principle, decoding, and encoding.
