Treasure Hunt Reading (via Prenda): K-4
Treasure Hunt Reading (THR) was created by the Prenda team in an effort to support learners worldwide! It follows an Orton-Gillingham, multi-sensory, systematic approach to literacy and is aligned to the science of reading research.
THR is appropriate for learners who are just beginning their learning-to-read journey, stuck or stalled learners, or learners who are looking to deepen their proficiency. Mastery of the concepts taught within THR typically results in a 3rd-4th grade reading level and sets learners up to move into advanced reading material naturally.
