-
Foundations develops English language skills by honing and expanding on fundamental early literacy development.
Foundations(suitable for N1 and N2 students)
-
The ability to identify, access and differentiate sounds in words. In Foundations, the focus is on first sounds.
Phonemic AwarenessWHAT?WHY?Phonemic awareness is a strong predictor of reading success, and explicit instruction in phonemic awareness fast-tracks the learn-to-read process. This means that children who demonstrate strong phonemic awareness go on to become better readers, sooner.
-
The ability to comprehend (listen) and apply (speak) a wide variety of words and sentence structures to facilitate meaningful communication.
Oral CommunicationWHAT?WHY?Students who begin school with a relatively large vocabulary tend to learn more words, more quickly than students who begin school with a poor vocabulary. That is, knowing more words makes it easier to learn new words. Therefore, vocabulary development accelerates your child's comprehension and communication skills.
