Keys Overview

​Keyz 2 tha Lexis (K2thaL) utilizes music, dance, lyricism, and theater as multimodal tools to teach Preschool through 8th grade students the full array of principles and theories related to linguistics (the science of language). In the K2thaL system, students sing, dance, rap, and act their way to language proficiency and linguistic mastery. In addition, each of the theories of linguistics, from phonology to pragmatics, has different character instructors uniquely designed to teach each theory. These entertainment elements along with imaginative play engage all four styles of learning: audio, visual, tactile, and kinesthetic. In terms of success, K2thaL has been implemented in early learning centers, elementary, and after school programs across metro-Atlanta serving close to 1000 Pre-K to eighth grade students. Many of the K2thaL youth have gone on to earn a number of academic accolades such as principal's list, honor roll, nominations and inductions into gifted programs, and literacy awards at proficiency levels that surpass the curricular standards.
