A Holistic Approach to Early Grade Literacy: Analyzing the Benefits of the Wilson Reading System Integration
Article Sidebar
Main Article Content
Abstract
This comprehensive study explores the integration of the Wilson Reading System (WRS) into early grade literacy programs, focusing on its impact, implications, and challenges within educational settings. Through an integrative literature review encompassing diverse scholarly works and research findings, the study highlights the effectiveness of the WRS in enhancing students' literacy skills, particularly in phonological awareness, decoding, and reading fluency. Additionally, the review emphasizes the transformative implications of the WRS's multisensory approach for instructional practices, promoting inclusive and engaging learning environments that cater to diverse learning styles. However, the study also identifies critical challenges in WRS implementation, including resource intensity and the importance of cultural responsiveness in addressing students' diverse linguistic and socio-cultural backgrounds. The findings underscore the need for strategic resource allocation, comprehensive professional development, and culturally sensitive instructional practices to ensure the successful integration of the WRS and the creation of an inclusive and equitable learning environment. This study provides valuable insights for educators and policymakers seeking to enhance early grade literacy education and foster a supportive and empowering learning environment for all students.
