Foundation Literacy Skills (Level 2)

Our Foundation Literacy groups targets early literacy skills at approximately kindergarten level skills. Children will participate in fun activities drawn from evidenced-based approaches including Sounds-Write. This intensive group is a great way to develop early reading and spelling skills.

Skills covered will include:

  • Phonemic Awareness skills (syllabification, rhyme, initial and final sound identification, chaining)
  • Letter Sound Awareness
  • Blending and segmenting short CVC words (i.e. cat, pig), CCVC/CVCC words (i.e. flag, nest) and CCVCC words (i.e. clamp, stomp).
  • Digraphs (i.e. ch, th)
  • Sit and attend in small group settings for 10 minutes
  • Recognise and able to write most letters and say their sounds
  • Use sentences to communicate needs, wants and ideas
  • Independently move around a room without the need for physical support
  • Follow simple 2 step instructions and above
  • Independently perform self-care activities including toileting, hand hygiene and dressing post toileting.
  • Able to separate from parent/carer and participate in group activities for 2-3 hours

Our approach is inclusive. If your child has difficulties with some of these skills, they may still be able to attend. Please discuss suitability with your individual clinician or contact the ACM office to discuss available supports and accommodations.
