Summary of Program:
The Fundations program reinforces basic skills that were learned in Kindergarten and
progresses further into the study of word structure. In Units 1 and 2 so far, we have
covered consonant and vowel sound review; segmenting and spelling three-sound short
vowel words; sound manipulation of initial, medial, and final sounds; sentence dictation
procedures; proofreading; and the study of trick words the, of, and. We take our Unit 2
test on 1/28/09.
Our upcoming unit addresses consonant digraphs, use of ck at the end of words, use of
the question mark, additional trick words, narrative vs. expository text, and grouping
words together during reading to improve fluency.
