Literacy

“If a child cannot learn in the way we teach… we must teach in a way the child can learn”

Children 4 and Up
At Azula, we used a systematic curriculum to map out a path to successful literacy. Our Early Literacy Program is implemented with children as early as 4 year old and is designed to teach all of the foundational skills needed to become fluent and independent readers. By working on letter recognition, letter sounds and handwriting, in a fun and engaging way, your child will be prepared to succeed academically.

Dyslexia
For adolescents with dyslexia, we use a structured literacy curriculum that focuses on phonemic awareness, phonics and word study, vocabulary, fluency and comprehension. By focusing on these foundations, your child will learn the structure of the English language and advance into a fluent and confident reader.
