Wilson Academy & FUN HUB

Teachers who purchase a Fundations Teacher’s Manual have immediate access to the Fundations Learning Community on Wilson Academy^®. This online community is available 24/7 and offers extended support with unlimited opportunities to access instructional videos, FAQs, discussion boards, monthly and archived expert tips, lesson plan templates, assessment trackers, and printable resources. A credentialed Literacy Specialist with expert programmatic knowledge is also available by phone during Wilson Language Training’s business hours. Additionally, FUN HUB®—a powerful digital platform that provides educators an online extension of Fundations—is available by subscription and includes:

• Fundations InterActivities — an interactive teaching tool with Sound Cards and additional materials designed to engage students in learning.
• Instructional modeling videos delivered by Wilson Literacy Specialists to demonstrate new concepts and support teachers in small-group, targeted instruction.
• Guidance and support for families including video-based overviews of concepts taught and additional home-support practice packets.
