The Phonemic Awareness and Phonics Toolkit for Grade K provides a structured, research-based program for developing foundational phonemic awareness, phonics and early reading skills through small-group instruction. Designed for four students, the toolkit includes 60 standards-aligned lessons, each approximately 15 minutes long, with built-in differentiation and English learner (EL) support. Lessons use tactile, auditory, kinaesthetic and visual learning experiences to help students explore sounds, connect sounds with spellings and develop decoding and reading fluency. Assessments support progress monitoring and targeted instruction, while the included teacher guide and 3-year teacher eBook licence provide additional teaching support.
