Our  district has begun using the Pearson materials. What I really like 
about the  program is that it integrates reading, writing, and word study in a 
consistent  manner. There is more material than you could ever teach in a 
school year and  is great for beginning teachers. Not so great for those of us 
who got a  master's degree in literacy. But I do like the fact that 
everyone in the  district is now teaching word study and the same topics in 
writing. There are  always pluses and minuses to every program it seems.
