Wilson Fundations® Workshops
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.
