Pathways Learning Launches Two New Programs

Educational Publisher Launches Programs to Focus on English Language Acquisition

ORLANDO, Fla.--(Business Wire)--
Educational publisher Pathways Learning announces the launch of two new exciting
programs, English Travels and Blast! Building Grammar and Writing. These
innovative programs provide comprehensive learning systems that enhance
instructional effectiveness and improve student outcomes in English Language
acquisition. Pathways Learning has co-developed these programs with Innovatus
Education, a respected international educational publisher, and has exclusive
license to market and distribute the products throughout the United States and
its territories and possessions, Department of Defense Schools, and American
Schools abroad.

English Travels supports a Response to Intervention protocol with systematic
instruction and assessment. The program is comprised of theme-based units
designed to explicitly teach language structures, vocabulary, grammar/writing,
and phonics/word study, enabling English language learners to acquire vocabulary
and grammatical structures through emphasis on oral language. Assessment is
provided at point of use so that teachers can place students into the program,
monitor student progress, and improve student outcomes.

Blast! Building Grammar and Writing provides clear and precise instruction in
key grammar concepts that are essential for English Language acquisition.
Grammar practice is a part of each lesson, with integrated mechanics practice
that enhances understanding of the grammar. Engaging activities and practice in
writing and proofreading supports language learning. A Teacher`s Resource Book
provides professional development to support instruction and increase student
learning.
