Early Literacy Skill Builder (ELSB)
Attainment Inc. has introduced ELSB (available Fall 2007). It is a research based literacy curriculum designed for students with moderate to significant cognitive disabilities and for students with autism. ELSB is recommended for ages 5-10 years and includes phonics and sight word instruction. This looks like it’s is yet another great curriculum resource for teachers of this population!
If you would like to see the research check it out at UNC Charlotte.
