St. Mary of the Hills School to expand Fundations program

Read on for more information about the Fundations program at St. Mary of the Hills School.

This year, St. Mary of the Hills School kindergarten through second-grade teachers are using Fundations in their classrooms. Next year, third grade will be added to this new multisensory structured language program. This program was developed by Wilson® and brings more than a decade of systematic and explicit instruction to our classrooms. Based on the Wilson Reading System® principles, Wilson Fundations® provides research-based materials and strategies essential to a comprehensive reading, spelling, and handwriting program.

Wilson Fundations® makes learning to read fun while laying the groundwork for lifelong literacy. Students are receiving a systematic program in critical foundational skills.

Miss Michelle Meehan, Kindergarten teacher, at St. Mary of the Hills School along with her friend, Echo the Snowy Owl, are using Wilson Fundations® to teach explicit strategies for consonant and vowel sounds.
