Below is the order our letters and sounds are introduced in Fundations. Next to each letter is also the word of the picture symbol we use to connect the letter to its sound. 2 letters and sounds will be introduced in the beginning of each week, followed by a review of all previously learned letters and sounds. Only the BOLD letters have been introduced so far. We start with the lowercase letters (small) and then loop back to the beginning of the alphabet to review lowercase letters and sounds and introduce capital letters (big).
