“Many teachers struggle to find appropriate strategies and materials to help them differentiate instruction. Anchor activities provide students with short routine activities that require little or no support from the teacher. The CardReader and phonics programs fulfill this need. The teacher is now able to differentiate instruction and yet be assured their students are engaged with meaningful independent practice opportunities.” Bob Johnson a nationally acclaimed professional development trainer co-author of 6 books on looping and multi-age grouping 6 Wildflower Trace Place, The Woodlands TX 77382
