My Project

As a special-education teacher in 6th grade, I teach a population that is often delayed 4-5 years in reading and writing. Since the pandemic, I have noticed that some of my students are struggling with basic phonics and reading. The Wilson Language Program is a program for any age student contending with moving from phonics learning to rapid reading progression. Often by 6th grade, students are tired of picture and elementary phonics, as their age level is higher than their reading level.

The Wilson program is research- based and students will show success in moving forward in reading.

I am trained in implementation of this program and I know it will fill in any gaps from the current 6th grade curriculum, without demoralizing students to elementary phonic pictures and sentence making.
