US Grade Kindergarten
During each 30-minute session, the student will receive one-on-one help in the area selected by the parent. These sessions will provide the student with the consistency needed to build strong reading skills and teach them to use the strategies required to solve problem words or math problems. I can follow the parent's suggestions, or if you would like, I can choose the strategies to be taught during each session. Here is a list of just some of the areas I provide help with; • Letter and sound recognition • Sight words • Phonemic Awareness • Phonics • Grammar • Guided Reading Strategies
Learning Goals
The main goal of guided reading is to assist the student with using reading strategies, learning vocabulary, increasing fluency, gaining comprehension, and learning to read independently.
