			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Sherri,</p>
<p>I met with all of Matthew&#8217;s teachers (Home Room, Word Study, and IEP); they all say the same thing &#8211; he&#8217;s doing great; continue doing what he&#8217;s doing. Also, they say that this is his best year. His Word Study teacher (reading teacher) says that he reads the loudest and that he enjoys reading out loud. The IEP teacher (the best he has <em>ever</em> had) says he&#8217;s the best at reading with expression. And Mrs. Harlow says that she wishes more of her students were like him, as far as speaking up and expressing himself when he doesn&#8217;t understand something. Also, she says he always asks to do the multiplication flash cards.</p>
<p>Thanks for the help.</p>
<p>Valarie</p>

<p style="margin-bottom: 0in;">Dear Piper,</p>
<p style="margin-bottom: 0in;">This is a follow-up appreciation letter to the letter we wrote you on May 12th regarding Willow, aged 5.</p>
<p style="margin-bottom: 0in;">Willow&#8217;s reading abilities have continued to expand. This is thanks to your efforts as well as the efforts we have made with Willow between lessons based on the training you have given us. It has been a pleasure to learn the methods you have developed, and my appreciation for the intelligence and insight behind these methods continues to grow. Applying them at home with Willow has also been a pleasure. He has begun to initiate reading more and more, especially when there are younger kids around to whom he can demonstrate his new skills.</p>
<p style="margin-bottom: 0in;">Willow is about to graduate and we are very proud of him. Thank you again for your work with Willow and, on a larger level, your work to promote both reading and the enjoyment of reading in the world.</p>
<p style="margin-bottom: 0in;">Sincerely,</p>
<p style="margin-bottom: 0in;">Sky B. S.<br />
Paxus C. S.<br />
Hawina S.-F.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>To Whom it May Concern,</p>
<p>My son Dylan has been enrolled in the Reading Window since June 2005. When he started, he only knew the alphabet song. He did not know the sounds that letters make, and he could not recognize letters. Since joining the school, he has taken a keen interest in learning how to read. He can identify most of the alphabet, and many small words. He asks what letter every new word starts with. He is developing exceptional learning skills and vocabulary. It is my great pleasure to recommend the Reading Window to any parent who would like to give their child the opportunity to learn to read at an early age.</p>
<p>Sincerely,</p>
<p>Terry L. D.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Piper,</p>
<p>Eli is doing so much better in school this year! He brings home a lot of A and B papers now and seems to be having a lot less trouble doing his homework, and he even asks for my help on certain papers &#8211; before homework time &#8211; this tells me that he would rather do his homework right rather than rush through it just to get it done!</p>
<p>The most important reason for me to be excited about this year is his reading progress. For the first time, he has gotten an A in reading on his own reading level, instead of a grade behind. And he will read a book for the enjoyment of it &#8211; instead of being forced to.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Two years ago my daughter, Grace, spent a summer in the Reading Window program. Since this time, my daughter has excelled in all of her subjects and has been an Honor Roll student! She is now reading above her grade level and likes Science and Math. I credit this to the Reading Window program. I hope this will always be available for children and our community.</p>
<p>Thank you for all your help and continued support.</p>
<p>Emma G.</p>
<p>P.S. This program helped me as a parent as well as my child.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>This is just a testimony of the remarkable job that Piper Martin has done in the past with the Reading Window program. As a member of the Library Foundation, I&#8217;m a strong supporter of using the library as a resource for the proper books of our youngsters. At present, this offers the only resource in this rural area.</p>
<p>Piper taught four year old Erick the ability to read. He is presently in the first grade but reading at a fourth grade level and accomplishing math at a second grade level. He is also enrolled in the University of Virginia Enrichment Saturday program and Odyssey of the Mind. He may even skip the second grade. Some of his favorite books are the Chronicles of Narnia and Charlotte&#8217;s Web. I contribute this to his early learning to read through the Reading Window program. The program was extremely successful and fun for Erick.</p>
