Wilson Fundations® Workshop
How does Wilson Fundations build
life-long literacy?
Fundations is a systematic and explicit phonemic awareness, phonics and
spelling program for the general education classroom that fits into your
K-3 literacy block. Based upon Wilson Reading System principles, Fundations
serves as a prevention and early intervention program to help reduce reading
and spelling failure. The 30-minute daily lessons provide a multisensory
approach to teaching that benefits all your students.
How will these workshops help
me incorporate Fundations into my instruction?

They focus on the knowledge and skills required to begin implementing
the program in the classroom and familiarize participants with the framework
