Our comprehensive programs offer flexible implementation with

Our
original product, Reading Together Grade Two, is a one-on-one
tutorial intervention that helps second-grade students
improve fluency and comprehension. It was developed by The
University of North Carolina at Greensboro; Guilford County Schools,
NC; Hebrew University; and the National Council of Jewish Women
Research Institute for Innovation in Education. It was based on Yachad ("Together"), successfully used in Israeli schools for nearly 20 years. |
Reading Together Grade Two™was
piloted for more than four years in North Carolina schools. In 2002,
Learning Together used the same proven methodology to develop a
continuum of other grade-level programs.
Reading Together Grade Three™ builds
on Grade Two strategies or intervenes with additional
students. Adding strong critical thinking and writing
components, it also builds the skills students need for
mandated end-of-grade tests.
Reading Together Intermediate™, written on the fourth-grade level, offers advanced
comprehension strategies for informational and procedural texts for
fourth, fifth and sixth graders.
Writing Together ™ uses the rich, authentic literature of Reading Together Grade Three™ to help students make connections, respond to text and practice creative and expository writing.
Math Together™ is
an interdisciplinary program that teaches critical thinking and problem
solving based on stories about key events in U.S. history. The program
targets third, fourth and fifth graders.
History Together™ takes an in-depth look at U.S. history from an African American
perspective. It supplements Math Together™ or makes a perfect
stand-alone curriculum for Black History Month.
