SPELLING
We use the Spalding Program
Spalding Program
The Writing Road to Reading Program is an evidence based program, delivered worldwide and an extension from Letterland with 70 codes (sounds/phonemes) found in the English language. These codes can be blended to form the many words we speak and write or can be segmented to read and spell. The ability to blend and segment is the most accurate indicator of a child's success in learning to read and write.

About Us
Multi-Sensory Learning
What is Letterland?
Letterland is a multi-sensory phonics program that provides a stimulating and engaging form of learning with fun activities, rhymes, songs and stories. 44 single and double letter phonemes come to life with memorable characters, stories and word associations.
Fast and effective word building follows as children are able to segment and blend sounds to read and write words. Letterland has proven to be successful in enabling children to link phonic information directly to their long-term memory by associating friendly characters (visual memory cue) to their alphabet letter (phoneme).
For children with additional needs, learning becomes easier and more successful.
Decodable Reading
Decodable books are texts that have specific phonemes and a small number of high frequency words that allow children to practice their decoding skills. Regular practice of sounds and words that children can successfully decode, boosts confidence and encourages the mastery of letter/sound relationships, improving reading accuracy and fluency.
