FOR PARENTS

You can accelerate learning for your children!

Your children will love to become ‘word detectives’ through the technique of ‘fish hooking’. This allows them to successfully decipher multiple syllable words with ease. They will be able to explain, in detail, the job each letter has in a word. They will constantly say, “give me a harder word!”

NEU Reading: Rewiring the Brain to Accelerate Learning is a life changing endeavor for your child. The lesson plans are explicitly laid out with appropriate pacing calendars to accommodate students in Pre-Kindergarten through 5th grade.They will learn to utilize ‘neuroplasticity’ rewiring the brain strategies to drive new neurological pathways. Through this award winning program, you will be capable of accelerating your child’s reading potential, giving them an academic edge and allowing them to reach their true potential.

Easy to teach

You will find the scripted lessons are organized in a simple, step-by-step order that is easy for you to teach and easy for your child to understand. A pacing calendar is provided for each grade level (PreK-5th), so you can be assured that your child is mastering the content of each lesson.

Easy to learn

NEU Reading: Rewiring the Brain to Accelerate Learning will equip your child with a powerful repertoire of strategic tools that will enable him/her to accelerate their learning potential. This improvement will benefit not only their reading capacity but also other subjects requiring reading. Your child will find the lessons fun and engaging while they enjoy becoming word detectives as they learn to apply the rules of the English language. 

FOR ADMINISTRATORS

“MEMSPA (Michigan Elementary Middle School Principal Association) has partnered with NEU: Neuroplasticity & Education United to provide principals and teachers with the unique reading instructional tools that have proven effective with every child. The data is in and the program has been vetted. NEU Reading is probably the most comprehensive effective method for teaching reading that I have seen in my 30 plus years in education. I encourage you to thoughtfully consider using this program for teaching teachers the research supported, classroom tested and data driven method for gaining and sustaining reading achievement growth. This is the closest thing to a silver bullet that I have ever seen.” 

-Paul Liabenow  [Executive Director, Michigan Elementary Middle School Principal Association]

"As a principal and former classroom teacher of 17 years, I am humbled to discover the lack of knowledge I had when it came to the teaching of reading. Through staff development under the guidance of Trish Martin, I along with my staff have discovered the power behind NEU Reading: Rewiring the Brain to Accelerate Learning. When I can walk into a Kindergarten room and ask a student what two sounds does the letter 'c' make, and to have that student explain in detail when it makes the 's' sound and when it makes the 'k' sound is the tip of this program. Students are reading in early elementary. In fourth grade students can tell you the origin of the word or parts of the word, be it French, Greek, Latin, or Anglo Saxon. The proof lies in the results of this program. This is not an educational swing, this is a homerun for our teachers and our students. NEU: Neuroplasticity & Education United has broken the barriers that teachers have struggled with for years and given us the tools to reach ALL students." 

-David Kelly [Principal New Buffalo Area Schools]

“The most fundamental responsibility of schools is teaching students to read. Just about all children can be taught to read and deserve no less from their teachers. On the other hand, teachers deserve no less than the knowledge and skills that will enable them to teach reading successfully. Using scientific research, NEU Reading: Rewiring the Brain to Accelerate Learning provides teachers the knowledge base and essential skills needed to successfully teach all children to read. The knowledge exists. Young lives depend on it. Why wouldn't we all be doing this?" 

-Erika Milovich  [Literacy Coach]

The instructional design of NEU

Neuroplasticity & Education United includes corresponding formative assessments.  These assessments focus on what a child has been explicitly taught by the teacher, instead of using an assessment tool that looks at both taught and untaught skills. 

• Detailed data collection materials corresponding to the instructional scope and sequence for individual student progress.
• Formative assessments-quick one to three minute assessments on only content explicitly taught. Provides immediate feedback to teachers and administrators on student strengths and weaknesses.
• Formative assessment results merged into Administrative Domain 5 format to monitor teacher effectiveness.

FOR TEACHERS

Teachers are in the profession of building brains.  YOU have the ability and power to impact each child’s BRAIN for greater learning capacities than ever before.  NEU: Rewiring embraces the belief in educational equity—where each child is provided the minutes needed to reach the end of the year outcome goals.  It’s about educational equality for all students.  Each and every child should be afforded the instructional design to reach the end of the year benchmarks, not just the students where learning comes easily.

Neuroplasticity & Education United provides teachers with:

• Turn-key curriculum manuals
• Lesson Plan Calendars:  appropriate instructional pacing presented on grade level calendars, as well as mapping out the Common Core State Standard skills being taught.
• Formative assessments: quick one to three minute assessments on only content explicitly taught.  Provides immediate feedback to teachers on student strengths and weaknesses. These results are used to determine each child’s required minutes to successfully achieve ‘educational equality’ allowing EVERY child to reach the end of the year expected outcomes.

Teachers love NEU

“The greatest part of the program is that it reaches everybody. The lowest, lowest kids that we used to struggle all year trying to help them learn their letters and sounds, passing them off to1st grade, possibly asking for special services and worrying about them beyond that, is not even in the spectrum anymore.... Everyone can learn with this program.”

- Barb S.  [Kindergarten teacher Teachers & Title 1 Staff will have quality instructional minutes using the NEU tested methods.]

“Teaching students to be good readers requires persistence, dedication, and, above all else, knowledge…. My students’ reading scores increased (and continue to do so) because I became equipped with a deep knowledge of the language and its construction, and an understanding of how the brain develops and processes information.”

- Lisa Wilson  [5th grade teacher]

 “Before Rewiring training, I just hoped that I was doing the right thing.  ...After teaching Rewiring, I was floored at what my students could do.”

- Lindsay Hiler  [1st grade teacher]
