[MOSAIC] new basal adoption

[shelley at authenticeducation.org]

God Morning-

Have you seen the BEGINNING READING website from the Universisty of Oregon?  Not only does it contain incredble resources for the teaching of reading ala NRP SBRR recommendations but it also has a link to aguide to evaluate and select a reading program.  This might help.

Publishers that might meet your needs may be:

Harcourt - Trophies program
Steck-Vaughn ( a subsidiary of Harcourt)
Rigby

Houghton Mifflin
 
SRA (direct instruction)
Open COurt
Reading Mastery
Corrective Reading

Other vendors might be:
Sopris West- LANGUAGE!
The Wilson Language/REading Program

Hope these help.
