Preschool incorporates a phonemic awareness curriculum designed by Heggerty. This program introduces the children to beginning skills in phonics to prepare them for kindergarten. The kindergarten classes at Archangel Gabriel School utilize this program, as well. It also uses a program called “Step by Step” which helps the children master beginning reading skills as it focuses on each child’s individual needs in this area. Small group instruction then helps the children reach their goal to make them successful readers. Heggerty Phonics is preparing the children for the “Step by Step” Program in our kindergarten curriculum and helping them to become successful in their future reading abilities.If you are interested in attending Archangel Gabriel Catholic Preschool, please contact us.
