Like all Rooted in Language products, Pinwheels incorporates research-based methods for teaching all learners, including those with dyslexia, dysgraphia, developmental language disorder, and other literacy-based struggles.

Pinwheels has helped me transform from a nervous and overwhelmed home educator into a confident teacher who is watching her daughter THRIVE. As a bookworm myself, I can’t thank this company enough for helping my daughter experience one of life’s greatest treasures, the ability to read.
