Scholastic F.I.R.S.T., Foundations In Reading, Sounds & Text , is a highly adaptive, foundational reading program for Grades PreK–2. Through explicit phonemic awareness training and systematic phonics instruction, F.I.R.S.T. ’s research-based pedagogy trains the brain to master “speed of listening.” Students become automatic in their decoding skills, preparing them to read fluently and increase their reading comprehension. Dr. Kay MacPhee was a lifelong educator, researcher, and author. Her journey began by helping her son, who was born hearing impaired, with speech and language, and linking her research to discoveries in reading for all children. By 2007, Dr. MacPhee’s concepts were ranked #1 in teaching reading comprehension by the What Works Clearinghouse after undergoing the largest reading trial in the United States.
