My Project

I am supposed to implement the Foundation's phonics curriculum, but we don't have any kits. Please help if you can!

I want to engage my class with phonics.

Phonics are the core of all reading ventures. My students are a semi-verbal group with high achievement potential. I want to implement Fundations, as it's being used across our district. Unfortunately, our school only received partial kits for this year. Therefore, we need letter-sound cards, alphabet sound cards, and puppet props to roll out the curriculum properly.

I am passionate about student reading and writing. Fundations engages in the Science of Reading to hit each student's fundamentals of reading components. I would love a complete kit to implement this curriculum with fidelity.
