It emphasizes basic phonological awareness and phonological reading skills in an attempt to build a decoding foundation for more advanced reading development. Together, researcher-developers and practitioners describe the program and its theoretical ancestry, application, and research outcomes, along with obstacles and solutions related to implementation.
