Spelling in Leander ISD

The goal of our Fountas and Pinnell Word Study program is for students to learn to correctly spell grade-level appropriate words in their everyday writing, not just for a Friday test. The program reflects the specific behaviors related to the nine areas of learning for letters, sounds, and words that children develop over time:

1.  Early Literacy Concepts

2.  Phonological Awareness

3.  Letter Knowledge

4.  Letter-Sound Relationships

5.  Spelling Patterns

6.  High-Frequency Words

7.  Word Meaning and Vocabulary

8.  Word Structure

9.  Word-Solving Actions
