Reading Through Phonics
Reading is the door to the world of learning. National Institute of Health studies indicate that phonics is a critical skill in learning to read. For Limited English Proficient students, phonics is crucial to their success.
Math Fundamentals
Fundamental concepts such as multiplication are the first steps to not only the more advanced concepts in algebra, geometry and calculus, but also to chemistry, physics, engineering and computer science. Math also provides logic tools for critical thinking.
Academics Impacts Behavior & Budget
Many of our schools are not teaching reading using phonics or multiplication tables. Without these kinds of fundamentals, our children fall behind, become bored and act our in class. Getting and keeping children engaged in learning can reduce the demand for special education and remedial programs, leaving these opportunities for the children who truly need them.
