Synopsis

Description: Sound Partners Kindergarten allows schools to provide more intensive individual instruction in essential early reading skills to the children who need it most while leaving classroom teachers free to work with other students. Using lessons specifically designed for use by paraprofessionals, this carefully designed, research-based program produces strong improvement in alphabetics, word attack, word identification, and spelling skills. Sound Partners offers what many experts advocate for struggling kindergarten students: an explicit and balanced approach that includes instruction in isolated code skills and application of word reading skills in scaffolded storybook reading practice. Sound Partners Kindergarten aligns with Common Core State Standards, Reading, Foundational Skills, Kindergarten for Print Concepts, Phonological Awareness, and Phonics and Word Recognition. Sound Partners Tutor Handbook includes detailed directions on how to implement the program, teaching strategies that include error correction procedures, and praise and behavior management as well as mastery assessment materials.
