In Kindergarten Phonics and Reading, students develop foundational reading and writing skills through systematic phonics instruction. Children learn to recognize and write uppercase and lowercase letters, identify letter sounds, and apply short- and long-vowel rules. Instruction begins with simple consonant-vowel-consonant (CVC) words and progresses to blends, digraphs, diphthongs, and vowel teams.

Students practice decoding and encoding words, reading and writing short sentences, and matching words to pictures. Grammar concepts are introduced gradually, including capitalization, punctuation, nouns, pronouns, verbs, plurals, possessives, and sentence types.

As skills grow, students read for comprehension, complete sentence and story activities, and engage in creative writing. Vocabulary development, listening skills, and auditory discrimination are emphasized throughout the course. By the end of the year, students confidently read simple texts, understand common spelling patterns, and apply phonics and grammar rules to both reading and writing.
