Problems associated with dyslexia
can be corrected at our school.

Students quickly learn to get around 
the inefficiencies
that may have caused problems.

We correct dyslexia inefficiencies
with millions of controlled reading successes.

99 percent of the students are successful
in meeting their goals. 

Dyslexia is a label that is too often used 
to explain failure to learn to read. 

The label alone can do lifelong  
psychological damage.

Eliminate the reasons for the label 
as soon as possible.

There are many other popular labels
that can damage the child's future
such as 'hyperactive' or 'unmotivated.'

We recommend you remove the reasons 
for any label
as soon as possible.
--------------------------	

The label is frequently
worse than the problem. 

The "dyslexia" symptoms
cease being a problem 
that slows learning 
after diagnostic and prescriptive teaching 
at our schools. 

You may be able to do this yourself 
with our free downloadable materials 
and procedures. 

You must be willing 
to follow all of our procedures 
to the letter.

There can be no variations
if the system is to work.

LEARNING DISABLED STUDENTS

In every school system 
in the United States, 
there are students who achieve 
below national scholastic averages. 

Many of these students
have been labeled 'learning disabled.'

Unfortunately, 
most schools are designed for 
and geared to provide education 
for the average student. 

Students who fall behind 
in their learning program 
become so seriously handicapped 
that they cannot, 
without special help, 
do anything about their situation. 

Educators often refer to such individuals 
as Attention Deficit Disorder,
as being:
perceptually handicapped, 
dyslexic, 
brain-damaged, 
minimal brain dysfunction, 
hyperkinetic, 
hyperactive, 
or having:
motor coordination problems
attention deficit disorder

School is a competitive 
environment.

Often "disabled" students 
develop compensating 
behavior patterns when 
they know they are failing 
but need to protect 
their self-image. 

Some seek attention 
by simply not trying. 

Others act lazy and are a great 
source of frustration 
to teachers and parents. 

Others assume the role
of "classroom clown"
becoming disruptive
to the learning environment.

Others who turn inward
become quiet,
withdrawn or act
indifferent and bored.

There is no simple answer 
or formula applicable 
to the disability problem.

Root causes vary 
with each individual. 

Environmental and psychological 
factors may be at fault.

Poor teaching methods 
may be a cause. 

Parental conflict 
is frequently a problem. 

Physical limitations 
such as poor hearing or vision 
may be contributing factors. 

Almost all of these students may be labeled.

The frustrations experienced 
by all underachieving students
are very real and usually result
in undesirable behavior
or attitudes.

PREDICTABLE SOLUTIONS 
TO PROBLEMS

Accelerated Schools has developed 
special teaching methods 
and materials that consistently 
solve learning problems. 

Over 99% of the students 
who have attended our schools 
for an adequate period of time 
have been brought up 
to their grade level or above. 

Our success with "disabled" 
or "labeled" students 
has been so consistent 
that most parents have been offered 
our guaranteed improvement contract.

Free from the restrictions
and pressures of a public school
we discard ineffective methods
and adopt efficient materials
and procedures.

We provide each student 
with personal custom-tailored instruction.

Continued progress testing 
and parent conferences show:

What needs to be learned.

What the learner can do.

What the teacher can do.

What the parent can do.

Qualified professionals pursue 
the learning task together 
with the students 
on an individual basis. 

We enable children to catch up
with their regular classes
and realize their maximum
learning potential

A PREDICTABLE SOLUTION
TO READING PROBLEMS

Reading 333, 444, 555.
 
Experts state that 25% 
of our nation's population 
has not learned 
to read properly. 

Many of these students 
fail to succeed, 
drop out, 
develop a poor self-image, 
or at least need remedial 
or special education classes.

To prevent the problem, 
we use an effective 
reading program that can teach 
the non-reader to read 
within one semester 
or summer vacation. 

Students that are one or more 
years below grade level 
need a longer enrollment. 

The program places 
a strong emphasis 
on auditory input during 
notetaking, tracing, copying, or fast-writes. 

333, 444, 555 enhance visual perception, 
auditory and motor skill development.

The audio-visual materials, 
and self-correction 
provide feedback 
at every level. 

Teachers can guide students
through sequential materials
relevant to the student's needs.
------------------------------

PETERSON READING 
444 & 555

Students chorus along 
with the teacher and a recording
that pronounces each phrase four times.

The recording continues 
to say the phrases 4 or 8 more times
while the student copies or traces 
the printed phrases.

In 12 seconds the student 
has listened 12 times 
and spoken the phrase 12 times 
4 times oral chorusing
8 times with inner speech.

Students gradually learn 
the letter and word sounds.

Within a few dozen hours 
students have also learned to make the sounds 
of individual letters and words.
---------------------------

Dyslexia 555

Psychiatric drugs 
are replacing common sense.

Poor teacher results
supports the errors.

"Ritalin safest med out there?

Solution

Don't blame the child's brain.

Don't medicate the brain.

Most learning problems 
are not a puzzle.

Problems are predictable outcomes
when parents aren't trained
to help properly.
 
They are situational reactions 
to failure experiences.

The solutions are not elusive.

Peterson Reading 
and reward management works.

Isn't this better than drugs?

Parents can compensate 
for large classes
by structured vocabulary practice
with their child.

Chart success rather 
than dispense pills.
