I like the engagement that the student experience brings. It is great to see that students can track their progress as well.

# data[].attributes.body
The site will be an easy transition for teachers to use especially if they have worked with LAZ products before. I love that teachers have that place to go to support student foundation skills in one place. It does not get buried within all the other resources of RAZ.

# data[].attributes.body
I am excited that teachers are able to continue digging deeper into the data to monitor their student progress.

# data[].attributes.body
The search option gives an easier way to find skills that will be presented to students. I like the embedded PD for teachers to build their background knowledge of the skill/product.

# data[].attributes.body
Lesson plans are written in the way that many teachers have been coached to deliver lessons (I Do, We Do, You Do). The plans allow students to learn in multiple ways. The support material is already there for teachers to use. The guess work is taken away.

# data[].attributes.body
The systematic approach to how learning will take place using the program guide is key to supporting new teachers. It gives them the research based practices and the why behind them, which is often overlooked.

# data[].attributes.body
I wrote a few questions on my survey after FAZ course 1 so won't repeat that here. I guess I am thinking how it important it will be from a training perspective to not overwhelm the teachers. We as PLS find this pretty easy to navigate because we do this all the time but for teachers it could be a bit challenging. Also I am concerned about this time frames that have put in for the different lesson parts. I am not really quite sure they are reasonable. Have these lessons been field tested in real classrooms?

# data[].attributes.body
I have spent quite a bit of time exploring the site. I find it fairly intuitive and love the options of choosing what they might need. I have also tried out some of the resources with some students and they are excellent!

# data[].attributes.body
I am excited that the data will be displayed on the day assigned or completed rather than needing to put in a custom date. I do think all of the filtering to get down to specific student data will need to explained well for teachers. Also getting to student management will be a bit different than Raz Plus so again teacher will need to get used to the new interface. Love the auto recognition feature and the improvements that will be coming soon.

# data[].attributes.body
Seems very similar to the Kids A to Z portal so I think students will be able to navigate fairly easy.

# data[].attributes.body
I am thrilled that there are specific resources for intermediate students that reading 1 or 2 levels below grade level. This question is asked of us all the time in our sessions. The lesson plans are very clear and easy to use with the ability to print and project. The assignments are of great variety and use of embedded video for teaching and enrichment is a great way to go!

# data[].attributes.body
Always a great idea to have the ability to search by skills or search by PD need. This promotes differentiation for our teachers and also for students - a very important piece!

# data[].attributes.body
Very well researched and explained. So important for teachers to now the what, why and how of instruction. Excellent work done here and easy to navigate!

# data[].attributes.body
I am so excited about FAZ and I feel like over the past few years we have had teachers ask for something just like FAZ!

# data[].attributes.body
Love how how the reports and data are similar to other LAZ products and are easy to navigate. I also love that the system scores the voice recognition but the teacher can override the score.

# data[].attributes.body
The "Reteach/Additional Practice" option for Grades 3-5 was my favorite and I know the teachers are going to love being able to have those resources available for them

# data[].attributes.body
I love that the Search bar is a "Smart Search" and can save teachers lots of time by helping them narrow down to the resources in which they are looking for.

# data[].attributes.body
On the getting started section for FAZ, I love how easy it is to log in and how teachers can easily choose between a Complete Curriculum or Supplemental Curriculum path.

# data[].attributes.body
Why can't we assign to groups?
What are the 3 top features teachers should know first, before anything else?
When will product delivery begin?

# data[].attributes.body
*If a teacher is using the program as a supplement, will the Quests for students make sense if they have not completed them in order?
*Will teachers have to be logged into their FAZ each time they listen to a Podcast, or will they be able to download it and listen on another device as they have time?
*Wondering if any of the foundational resources on the Raz-Plus side of things will disappear as schools/districts will be encouraged to purchase FAZ?

# data[].attributes.body
As a teacher it does not feel overwhelming to navigate the site. It's pretty straightforward and the search filters make finding those just right resources more efficient.

# data[].attributes.body
Very easy to navigate!

# data[].attributes.body
I also like the main quest and side quest separations for sequential work and additional practice.

# data[].attributes.body
I think the fact that the student side of the program is very much like Raz-Plus will make it easier for students to use. I like that you can still send messages.

# data[].attributes.body
I LOVE that there are phonics resources more appropriate for intermediate students! The I do/We do/You do structure is nicely laid out as well, and the timing of the lessons is a great planning time saver for teachers.

# data[].attributes.body
I love that teachers can use FAZ as a supplement to target specific skills to fill gaps in student learning, or that the program can be used as an explicit and systematic program.

# data[].attributes.body
It was mentioned during the video there would be major changes to the student side in April. I'm just wondering what the changes are, and if they have already been made.

# data[].attributes.body
I am so excited for teachers to use this, and to be able to try this out with my own children. FAZ incorporates all of the important foundational skills students need to be successful readers and presents it in a way that's engaging for students. The website has resources clearly organized, and easily accessible for teachers.

# data[].attributes.body
The auto voice recognition is such a great feature and will be a time saver for teachers! Having the option to override an auto score if needed is also a benefit . The reports and data will be useful for educators when monitoring student progress. I like how teachers can quickly glance at a top skill and bottom skill for individual students in the student progress report.

# data[].attributes.body
The skills search provides a great way for teachers to differentiate instruction for students. Educators will enjoy the convenience of finding a wide variety of foundational skills readily available to meet individual students' learning needs. The embedded professional development is a great resource for teachers, and I love how it is offered in podcasts as well!

# data[].attributes.body
The lesson plans and assignments are very user-friendly for both educators and students. A convenient feature is being able to present and download directly from the lesson plan. I loved the variety of teacher's tips for SEL and ELL embedded in the lessons for best practice. My favorite feature of the lesson plan is the additional decodable practice books included that contain lower K-2 phonics skills, but are offered at an interest level for upper elementary students.

# data[].attributes.body
It is evident there was an incredible amount of research done before this program was created. I love how FAZ offers important phonics and word study skills all the way up through fifth grade! I tutor upper elementary students who struggle with key foundational skills. While reading this section, I kept thinking about how my students may have been more successful in their reading journey if they learned from a program like FAZ.

# data[].attributes.body
The research base is so strong! Really helpful in knowing the background behind the program.
Looking forward to seeing the Program Guide!

# data[].attributes.body
Students will easily find their FAZ resources in a way that's consistent with their other LAZ programs.

# data[].attributes.body
Easy to navigate.
Teachers will like the options of two pathways. They can search by standards and look for lessons/resources to support their students in those standards

# data[].attributes.body
When will every feature be up and running?
Since this program is unlike other LAZ programs, I'd love to see a handout with the flow of the program.

# data[].attributes.body
For teachers using other LAZ programs, there will be consistency. Makes for ease of use.

# data[].attributes.body
In my experience, there has been little attention paid to intermediate students in need of foundational skills instruction. This is a great feature!

# data[].attributes.body
Great seeing professional learning at point of use! Love the videos and podcasts

# data[].attributes.body
Each course had a link to the marketing hub but access was not available for us.  I would love to see what is already being discussed so we can become familiar with what marketing has to offer.

This product looks very different for anything else LAZ has, is there talk about updating other products? Will there be crossover to VAZ to support FAZ?

# data[].attributes.body
I was easily able to build my children into the roster, assign specific activities and then watch the student side as they engaged with the platform. I love the two pathway options in the past we didn't say complete curriculum but many schools used LAZ resources for that so now that there is a clear pathway for a complete curriculum I know this product will be the answer for so many schools.

# data[].attributes.body
The robotic voice was often an issue in the past, so excited to hear about the Rosetta Stone integration. Listening to the real student recording will help to identify errors in the student work.

# data[].attributes.body
The side quests options is a great way to fine tune student learning, you can find any individual resource and assign that for the students in addition to following the pathway.

# data[].attributes.body
The additional phonics practice for intermediate level students is a wonderful addition. Teachers are seeing now more then ever students who potentially had gaps in their primary education due to the pandemic have additional phonics gaps that is impacting their comprehension skills in grades 3-5.

# data[].attributes.body
I love how there will be professional development in multiple learning styles, from videos to podcasts to coaching. Resources are delivered at point of use to facilitate differentiated instruction to our students but also to our educators as well.

# data[].attributes.body
It is so valuable to learn about the Research-Base behind the intentional foundational skills instruction within Foundations A-Z. This will build my knowledge and ability to articulate to customer and teachers why this product is essential.

# data[].attributes.body
The "Review and Reteach" feature for 3rd to 5th grade students that gives teachers a link to decodable books that support students reading two or more grade levels below with content that is appropriate to their age will be a great thing to point out to all educators!

# data[].attributes.body
Foundations A-Z is the most easy to navigate and most intuitive to use product that we offer. All of the enhancements to the teacher experience make it fun to engage with!

# data[].attributes.body
When assigning a lesson why isn't assigning to "groups" an option?

# data[].attributes.body
Common Core standards included by default within each lesson

# data[].attributes.body
The way the lessons are presented is very logical and intuitive. Four UNITS for every grade. Every UNIT has four MODULES and every MODULE has five LESSONS. Those five lessons can be taught daily across the five school days in a typical week but don't have to be. Love that it can work for a full week of learning including four base days and a stretch day!

# data[].attributes.body
Top level skills being marked with arrows will really help teachers search for meaningful and appropriate resources.

# data[].attributes.body
Love the "smart search" feature that intuitively starts the teachers search allowing them access to a broad range of resources. Teachers can continue to drill down by grade, skill (specific elements) and collections!

# data[].attributes.body
Students will not be able to move out of sequence in assignments as they will be gated.

# data[].attributes.body
All date ranges will now update and include today's information. Awesome

# data[].attributes.body
I LOVE that teachers will be able to override the computer generated score for games and interactivities once the Rosetta Stone upgrade is complete

# data[].attributes.body
It has been nice to already have the availability to explore the FAZ website. Thank you! I especially like the selection of the "drawers." When I explore lesson plans, I see the Grade level selection, the unit numbers, the name of the unit, the question, and then the 4 modules within each unit. Included are the caregiver letter, the scope and sequence, and the Professional Development link for that unit. This is very well laid out for teachers.

# data[].attributes.body
1.  When we begin to present FAZ, if the teachers do not have their own credentials, are we going to have the opportunity to provide them with a training user name and password?
2.  When will the Program Guide be added to the website?
3. I believe I read/heard that there will be 8 units within each Grade Level. When will the additional units be added to FAZ?

# data[].attributes.body
The FAZ reports are consistent with some of our other products--Student Activity, Skills, and Assignment reports.

# data[].attributes.body
The link to the Student Management Area is located on the left hand side of the website at the bottom. However, when a teacher logs in to FAZ, the dashboard is present with data such as title of the lesson, date assigned, number of students to whom it was assigned, percentage of progress, and the overall score.

# data[].attributes.body
I love the ease of use of the search area in the upper right hand corner; teachers will certainly appreciate this feature. The Skills Search area itself is also teacher friendly with the choice of grade level and the expansion of skill subtopics.

# data[].attributes.body
PD is included at the point of reference for teacher--very handy. PD includes a variety of media--videos, articles, etc.

# data[].attributes.body
I look forward to looking at/printing the Program Guide when it is available on the FAZ website. I understand that it will include the research basis of FAZ.

# data[].attributes.body
Foundations A-Z attributes:  explicit, systematic instruction; engaging, purposeful learning; intentionally designed for foundational mastery; made for any classroom--anywhere.

# data[].attributes.body
Reteach and enrich activities/ideas are built into the lessons. (I also love the caregiver letter for each unit that offer ideas for home support).

# data[].attributes.body
The lesson plan is very logically formatted and incorporates the "I do, We do, You do" consistency found in our products.

# data[].attributes.body
Each activity within a lesson builds upon the previous one.

The student will find the separate Foundations planet with his/her lessons in sequential order.
