Comprehensive Reading Foundation Group 5

The journey we began together has taken our learners from identifying their very first sounds to confidently exploring the limitless world of reading. From simple phonics to expressive reading and storytelling—our young readers have come a long way.

Where we once focused on distinguishing sounds like s, a, t, we’re now reaching new heights. The learners are now well-exposed, well-equipped, and ready to drop everything and read!

Kudos to you—our dedicated parents and applause to our new-age learners who are mastering reading, writing, and spelling with joy and confidence.
