Primary schooling
foundation!

Mechanics is a bilingual program for re-teaching essential foundation skills that should have been mastered in grades 1 through 8 in Math, Reading, Writing, and Vocabulary.

Works for learners who are 2 or more grade levels behind. The lessons are grouped in 3 levels instead of grades to keep students motivated. The students start low, gain confidence through simple concepts, and work their way up.

Mechanics is especially effective for English Language Learners and Migrant programs.
