Davis® Foundations for Reading Program

The Davis Foundations for Reading Program is designed for "at risk" children ages 5-7 years old. This parent-coached program prepares children with the essential tools to learn to focus and create solid foundations for learning language. Because parents are involved, they learn how best to help their children learn the fundamentals of reading, writing, and spelling into the future.
 
Provided on a modified schedule (typically 9 am - 12 pm) over a two-week period, you and your child will be guided through using clay and the Davis Symbol Mastery techniques to:

  • Master upper- and lower-case alphabet letters
  • Techniques to catch and resolve confusions with letters caused by shape (i.e. b, d, p, q), sounds, or letter formation
  • Gain awareness and understanding of basic punctuation marks
  • Learn fun and engaging ways to master those pesky "sight words"
