About the Program

Our Literacy World, designed for the Saudi classroom

Our English Language Arts curriculum for Grades K to 5 develops strong foundations in reading, writing, and communication through a structured, research-based approach built on the Science of Reading. Built on the US Common Core State Standards (CCSS) and aligned with Saudi Vision 2030 and the Saudi Early Learning Standards (SELS), the program brings together global best practices with the Kingdom's educational priorities. It develops phonics, fluency, vocabulary, comprehension, and writing while supporting meaningful literacy development for learners across the Kingdom.

Carefully adapted for Saudi schools, it combines internationally recognized educational practices with culturally relevant stories, familiar contexts, and national education priorities, empowering teachers with comprehensive classroom resources that support consistent, high-quality instruction.
