"I have not received the post instruction test results but during the last week of instruction my dyslexic entering first grader who was struggling with BOB books ths time last year, was reading at the fifth/sixth grade level."

That is encouraging! We have the Toe-by-Toe book but haven't started it. We've had two days of Seeing Stars. We are also doing the intense 4 week instruction. I can't imagine this will work, but I've seen it with other things with our kids learning things rapidly, like flipping a light switch. You give me hope :-)
