Literacy development is a vital part of your child's overall development. It's the foundation for doing well at school, socialising with others, problem-solving, making decisions, developing independence, managing money and working. Foundations for Literacy is a one-of-a-kind evidence-based intervention designed specifically for use with preschool and kindergarten-aged children who are deaf and hard of hearing. Foundations for Literacy is taught an hour a day four or five days a week for the school year. The literacy challenge confronting children, their families, and schools in the United States has two parts. The first is the universal need to better prepare students for twenty-first-century literacy demands. The second is the specific need to reduce the disparities in literacy outcomes between children from disadvantaged backgrounds and those from more privileged homes. In exploring the development of the literacy in the foundation Phase has been pushed by various problems that have prompted this research. They include undiagnosed learning disabilities, hearing or vision loss, lack of a role model, i.e. no one in the family or household stresses reading or education, and poverty or a focus on survival needs rather than education.
