Kindergarten through 5th Grade

Into Reading is a research based, standards-aligned comprehensive ELA program that is designed to expand student background knowledge and vocabulary, promote critical thinking and discussion about narrative and non-fiction texts, and develop expression through discussion and writing tasks.

Kindergarten through 2nd Grade

K-2 Fundations provides an explicit, systematic and multi-sensory approach to teaching the alphabetic principal which is needed for students to read (decode) and spell (encode) with automaticity. When students master the alphabetic code, they use that knowledge to read words and create meaning and understanding from text. Conversely, when they spell, they are capturing the sounds they hear and form letters clearly and efficiently to write with automaticity. Building on this knowledge is how students develop a solid foundation in reading and writing.
