US Grade Kindergarten - 1
We will work on multisensory study of sight words based on an individualized list. We will work on reading and writing sight words using a variety of strategies. We will work on decoding strategies such as looking for parts we know within a word, skipping a word and coming back, using the picture as a clue, and exploring long and short vowel patterns such as ow, ea, oa, using word chunks to help with decoding c-old, and changing the beginnings of words to make other words in order to help Khalid be more flexible with decoding strategies and begin to apply those strategies independently.

Teacher expertise and credentials
Master's Degree in Education from Roberts Wesleyan College
I have a Master's in Elementary and Special Education, a B.A. in Psychology. I am certified to teach in New York State and am also a certified Mindfulness for Children Practitioner. I have been teaching since 2006 and love to break things down and help students discover what works best for them. I have taught grades 1-6 in traditional schools and have experience providing home school instruction. My areas of focus are reading, math strategies, sight words, word study and motivating reluctant writers. I want my students to learn something new, but also discover a little bit about how they learn as that will help them for years to come. I often use humor to keep my students engaged and entertained during my classes. I live with my husband and two naughty cats in Florida. One of my favorite things is to the go to the beach and find fabulous shells. I look forward to seeing your child in one of my classes soon.
