Structured Literacy Foundation 1 Toolkit

The Literacy Clinic NZ’s Structured Literacy Foundation 1 Toolkit (TLCNZF1T) provides material to support the structured, explicit and systematic teaching of literacy skills and knowledge to students of all ages.

The TLCNZF1T is divided into three parts:

Part One includes in-depth material for the structured, explicit and systematic teaching of closed and open syllables, tricky ‘e’ syllable (magic ‘e’), digraphs, blends, the FLOSS rule, when to use k/ck, ch/tch, ge/dge, soft c and soft g. Additional material is included for teaching plurals, suffixes and heart words.
