What's included

16 live meetings
12 in-class hours
Homework
1 hour per week. After each class I will explain the concepts we covered and provide a list of review words in the classroom. Students should practice building with tiles and writing the words that they have not mastered yet.
Assessment
Phonogram cards, sound cards, key cards, and word cards will be reviewed weekly to determine mastery. Mastery will also be evaluated when students write words, phrases, and sentences with the phonograms that have been taught.

Class Experience

US Grade 1 - 3
All About Spelling uses multisensory learning. Kinesthetic learning includes building words with letter tiles and writing words, phrases, and sentences. Visual learning includes watching direct instruction of spelling concepts with the colored tiles, seeing the words written down, and looking at the review cards. Auditory learning includes verbally reviewing the review cards, segmenting words out loud, and saying the phonogram's sound as it is written. These learning strategies will be used throughout the week to introduce, reinforce, and assess.

Each week I will incorporate the following activities:
1. Review phonogram cards, sound cards, rule cards, and word cards.
2. Introduce a new spelling concept through direct modeling with the tiles followed by guided practice with the tiles, independent practice in writing, and application in writing in a word, phrase or sentence.
3. Assess your child's progress through their understanding of review cards and demonstration of the spelling concept in writing.

Students can write on their board with a dry erase marker or type in the chat. At the end of the course, students will spell words with a partner in breakout rooms while I individually assess the phonogram, sound, rule, and word cards.

Students should have completed All About Spelling Level One or have taken the spelling placement test at https://www.allaboutlearningpress.com/all-about-spelling/ . The placement test will determine whether you should begin with level 1 or if you can begin with level 2.
Learning Goals
Students will learn about the phonograms EE, WH, ER, and AR. Also, students will be introduced to the Bossy R and Vowel Team syllable types. In addition, students will learn how to make silent E words plural.

Supply List

OR
https://www.allaboutlearningpress.com/letter-tiles-app/

2. If you purchase the physical letter tiles, you will need a large magnetic white board and a dry erase marker. The magnetic whiteboard is so that students can easily hold up the words they make for me to see. If you purchase the letter tiles app, a small white board and marker is needed.

3. Students will need a whiteboard to write sentences on.

4. Students will need the activity book if it hasn't been purchased already for the previous level two classes: https://www.allaboutlearningpress.com/all-about-spelling-level-2-burst-into-spelling-activity-book/
