We publish core, supplemental, and intervention literacy and language resources in English and Spanish and deliver professional development to educators. We have been called the “phonics provider of choice” and recognized as a responsive publisher offering equally rigorous and engaging digital, print, and hybrid learning materials grounded in the Science of Reading research. We monitor research outcomes carefully to create effective foundational resources that include decodable texts with systematic and explicit instruction and high-quality resources focused on language development and reading comprehension. We count Wiley Blevins and Jan Hasbrouck among the phonics and reading authorities who are our expert partners. Our content-rich and authentic texts offer instruction in close reading and analysis, multiple perspectives, and authentic literature while building world knowledge and reflecting the individuality of every student in each diverse classroom. Family owned and operated, BEC is committed to partnering with educators to provide the best for all students through resources of exceptional quality, world-class professional learning, and effective and dedicated customer support.
