Phonics Instruction-We use Fundations which is a research based

program to develop decoding skills and the instructional analysis of

words. (letter/ sound, phonemic awareness, knowledge identifying word

families, chunking; does the word make sense?, Do letters match sounds?

Components of Our Balanced Literacy Program

 Read Alouds-To improve students listening skills, reading

comprehension and build vocabulary

 Shared Reading-The teacher models the three cueing

systems of reading: phonics, grammar, and meaning by making his/ her thinking transparent as he/ she asks , Does this make sense ? Does it sound right? Does it look right?

 Guided Reading-The teacher works with a small group of

students (no more than 3 or 4 students on the same level)

Questioning (Students making their thinking visible)
