Strengthening MTSS With State-Recognized Foundational Literacy

Fundations, a Structured Literacy program rooted in the science of reading, is a Florida state-approved resource for students with a substantial deficiency in reading for whom interventions have not been effective. It has also been proven effective in improving foundational literacy skills for all students, allowing schools to implement a coherent solution across all instructional tiers. Fundations provides:

  • Teachers with detailed, easy-to-follow daily learning plans and thorough activity procedures,
  • Students to build critical foundational literacy skills that are often gaps for struggling readers.
  • Teaching to mastery within a 30-minute daily lesson by emphasizing the mastery of skills through activity-based learning.
  • Instruction & integrated assessment through whole-class, small-group, and individualized instruction while tracking progress with clear, actionable data.

Evidence of Effectiveness

Independent studies including ESSA’s analysis of data from a Florida district demonstrate that students using Fundations achieve greater gains in foundational literacy skills compared to students using programs previously implemented by the schools.

Two children sit at a classroom table, engrossed in reading illustrated textbooks. The boy, dressed in blue, and the girl, in purple with glasses, are focused, with a clutter of open books and papers in front of them. Other students are in the background.

Our K-2 classes have been using Fundations for over 15 years as a Tier 1 as well as Tier 2 intervention. Our students have shown tremendous growth over the years, and we have seen less and less phonics deficiencies in grades 3 and up.
