Meet the Teacher Night Welcome to First Grade

Fundations Phonics Program

What is Wilson Fundations? The foundation for reading and spelling Provides a structured, sequential, and cumulative phonics/spelling program using multisensory teaching techniques Part of the balanced literacy instruction, delivered to all students for 30 minutes per day Emphasizes phonemic awareness, phonics-word study, high frequency word study, fluency, vocabulary, handwriting and spelling

Program Highlights letter formation and print knowledge blend and segment up to 5 sounds for example: s t a m p identify the elements of word structure: blends, digraphs, short and long vowels, basewords, suffixes, syllables types (closed and vowel-consonant-e syllables) read, spell and write “trick” and high frequency words for example: to, too, two stories (fiction and nonfiction) that provide instruction for fluency, expression and understanding beginning compositional skills: capitalization, punctuation and proofreading procedures

Home Support You are the “coach!” Please set time to read Fundations letters that come home and do the homework activities from the Home Support Pack. Please support classroom instruction by using the verbal step-by-step guidelines for proper letter formation Proper pencil grip and correct letter and number formation will lessen fatigue in the hands and builds stamina for writing neatly. *Please note there are periodic unit assessments. There will be no weekly spelling tests.

Reading Program Children will be grouped according to reading level. They will have small group instruction in order to learn decoding, phonics, and comprehension skills. They will be bringing their guided reading books home to read each week.
