Independent Study Shows Lindamood-Bell® Instruction Changes Brain Structure
A new article in the August issue of NeuroImage features the results of a study that examined changes in gray matter volume (GMV) in children with dyslexia who received intensive reading instruction using the Seeing Stars® program for reading and spelling. The study, conducted by researchers from the Center for the Study of Learning, Georgetown University Medical Center, and Wake Forest University Baptist Medical Center, found that “training-induced changes” in GMV can be seen in a pediatric sample, and that the changes are accompanied by improvements in reading. Furthermore, changes in both reading skills and GMV were maintained after the training ended.

Journey Into Dyslexia by HBO Documentaries: Includes an interview with Dr. Guinevere Eden who has published multiple studies showing dramatic fMRI changes utilizing Lindamood-Bell® Instruction.
Congratulations to Monaco Elementary School (Colorado)!
Your 3rd grade CSAP scores broke the barrier of the achievement gap with the percentage of those categorized as "Proficient and Advanced" going from 33% in 2010 to 70% in 2011.
This gain of 37% is a significant improvement beyond the state average of 3% and the rest of the district average improvement of 11%.
In addition to this, your percentage of "Unsatisfactory" decreased by 20%!
Never again let it be said that a school who has over 92% of their students qualifying for "free and reduced lunch" can't achieve great educational results.
