Portals to Reading
"We use Portals, Portals Plus, and Portals Jr. when teaching ESL. We have been purchasing Portals Jr. as we can afford new titles, and it is doing amazing things for our ESL students."

"I love the novel units Portals to Reading. After using them for several years I've found that students have grasped the essentials of what they need to know about the book as well as the word study info. As the students get better at performing in the packets they are allowed to skip certain pages of the word study."

"I love the Portals to Reading series. They teach the skills that are no longer addressed in the current reading manuals. You have brought back the basics! These are laid out well and assess comprehension throughout. I plan to order again when reading monies become available. I spend all Reading Improvement money on these Portals and will continue to do so in order to teach novels! Thanks!"

"I am so very impressed with the materials in the Latitudes resources for Summer of My German Solider. I never expected the materials to be so thoroughly researched and so rich in detail. Every aspect of the book has been dealt with completely and sensitively."
