Fountas & Pinnell is a systematic design for high impact literacy instruction. This maximizes scholar learning with lessons, materials and powerful tools that guide educators to form high-impact literacy instruction.
It is used to help Guided Reading instruction and helps our youngest scholars to become readers.
Readers must build a system of strategies for processing texts A-Z, which begins with the early reading behaviors and then builds strategies to help readers develop the skills necessary to read increasingly difficult texts.
Our goal is to support the development of scholars to self-initiate strategies they will be able to use and apply to a range of texts.
