“I´d like to take this opportunity to express
my gratitude towards the E-Blocks program. The three ELD
1 students have made significant progress by using more
words/vocabulary learned. They have excellent letter/sound
knowledge which allows them to write simple sentences
phonetically. I highly recommend the program for non-speaking
English students.”

"Our school is getting great results
with the E-Blocks tables, because the students have been
paying more attention on the pronunciation of the words
in English and are completing the activities easily. "

“My students think E-Blocks is
a fabulous product, and we can hardly wait until the other
levels are available”.

The new activities that I could introduce,
in the early grades of our Elementary School, through
the E-Blocks tables, are being successfully done by the
students that intensively participate of the classes and
are always relating the pronunciation of the words in
English with the pictures and the written words".

"The activities developed by our
teachers with the E-Blocks tables are creating in our
Elementary School students a much bigger interest in learning
the English language".

I work the E-Blocks system in
one of our learning centers at Fair Avenue. Fair Avenue’s
student population is about 1,500 students from mostly
low income Latino immigrants. Three to four times per
week, the kindergarten and first grade teachers pull out
their most difficult to teach students to work with me
on E-Blocks for 30 minutes each.
I also serve newcomers from primarily
Latin American countries. Despite their grade levels of
2nd to 5th, these students have a reading level of 0 to
1 and little working knowledge of English. These students
come to work with E-Blocks in order to help learn phonics
and initial literacy exposure. Not only do they enjoy
the interactive feel of E-Blocks, but also their self-esteem
is higher because they see their improvement in English.
The results have been remarkable.
The teachers and parents of these children
are very pleased with the progress. E-Blocks is definitely
making an improvement in the English education of our
students at Fair Avenue and I would not hesitate to recommend
it to other teachers of English.
