We take great pride in providing the staff and students with best practices in education. Early literacy skills focus on the five big ideas in reading:
- Phonemic Awareness
- Phonic Instruction
- Vocabulary
- Fluency
- Comprehension
Language Arts instruction in grades kindergarten through third grade consist of a 90 minute uninterrupted block. Students engage in whole group, learning stations, and differentiated small group guided reading instruction. The primary language arts program includes Storytown* and model programs from Fountas and Pinnell.
Upper level classrooms use either StoryTown or Reading Workshop. Writing Workshop is taught in all 4-5 classrooms.
