Description
The "System" is named FIRST FOCUS because that is what it provides: a first focus on reading and related language arts skills. Lynne Hanson created the FIRST FOCUS Phonics System and has perfected it over 20 years of teaching reading and language arts in public and private schools. Her motivation was to help children overcome their feelings of inadequacy and worthlessness when they were asked to "Try!" but hadn't been taught "HOW". The result is a simple, efficient and very effective learning system from FIRST FOCUS Publishing. Our Mission: The FIRST FOCUS Phonics System provides: - An easy, organized method of learning the decoding skills necessary to read. -A consistent approach with practice materials which build competence and confidence. Using the FIRST FOCUS Phonics System, the reader does not have to memorize long lists of words or have a photographic memory to read successfully. Each "Chart" focuses on one phonics-decoding concept. The FIRST FOCUS Phonics Charts, practice material and the Read and See Books provide focused practice in the Chart skill being taught and allow the student to apply the concepts successfully and quickly. Lynne Hanson’s training, experience/accomplishments include: -B.A. in Elementary Education, California Teaching Credential -Reading Specialist Certificate State of California.
