TargetScore! Vocabulary is the world's best vocabulary-reading acceleration system. Researchers now agree that vocabulary is the key to reading success and that a powerful vocabulary and strong reading skills are the keys to success in school, on high-stakes tests, and in life.
Vocabulary is the Missing Link
Most US schools now do a good job teaching children to read -- up through 2nd grade. But after second grade, when the vocabulary level of textbooks rises, there is a general decline in reading comprehension. In addition, after 4th grade American science and math scores begin to fall, and by high school our students are far behind their peers in other countries. This simultaneous drop -- in reading and math/science scores -- is not a coincidence! Reading is the foundation of success in all academic subjects. The formula to remember is:
Word Power = Reading Power = Learning Power.
