Meeting the Needs of Early Literacy in NYC

Early Literacy Support Is Critical

With New York City’s focus on early literacy support, it’s essential that NYC educators have access to high-quality foundational skills resources. As seen in our research report, School Readiness for Young Students Post-Pandemic, recently cited in the Wall Street Journal, our data suggests young students are entering school less prepared for grade-level learning, and more students are placing further behind.

Magnetic Foundations Can Help

We have created Magnetic Foundations to meet the need for foundational skills in primary students and to help ensure they are prepared to tackle reading comprehension down the road.

Designed for Grades K–2, this program takes students from foundational skills to reading fluency with systematic, explicit instruction aligned to the Science of Reading. It provides age-appropriate learning opportunities to ensure all students are engaged and have access to the right content at the right time.
