PAF provides children with the building blocks they need to learn in a logical order which results in minimum frustration -- and maximum success. Its step-by-step progression leads not only to improvement in basic skills but to an increased sense of mastery and self esteem. Children are taught:
The sounds letters make and how to write them
How to blend the individual sounds into words and spell them /t/ /e/ /n/ make the word ten
To use words, syllables and suffixes to build multisyllable words ten > tender > tenderly
To read accurately and fluently using phrases, sentences and stories that contain only sounds and words that have already been learned (decodable text)
Comprehension strategies to help them understand what they read
