The curriculum is designed to help students transition from concrete actions to abstract thinking. Instead of learning rules, children "discover" the laws of the subject through collective research and modeling.
The planning centers on "Phonematics"—the relationship between the sound and the written letter—to build a deep understanding of orthography.
: Use constant modeling (arrows, line segments, brackets) to keep abstract concepts visible. The curriculum is designed to help students transition
: Identifying "danger zones" in writing where a sound could be represented by multiple letters.
: Introduced as a specific way of counting grouped units, rather than just a table to memorize. : Use constant modeling (arrows, line segments, brackets)
: Using schemes to visualize the structure of a sentence. Implementation Tips for Teachers
: Developing the ability to model the relationship between parts and the whole. Key Thematic Blocks: Russian Language : Using schemes to visualize the structure of a sentence
: Distinguishing between the sound of a word and its formal spelling.
