This class is taught in English.

Students will learn vocabulary words vital to increased growth in their word base.  The goal is to have the students internalize these words.  Students will be made more aware of the words in their world and be able to add them to their normal spoken and written vocabulary.  The words in this kindergarten book are also used and worked into the first grade book so students will still get exposure to these first words. 

Why would you want me to teach your child?  I am approachable, knowledgeable, and highly qualified to teach vocabulary and reading. I devote my time to making these classes enjoyable and valuable for the learners.   As a retired teacher of 33 years, I have taught this same Wordly Wise curriculum for grades four, five, and six in a public classroom for many years. I am certified as a gifted teacher, so I offer higher level critical thinking.  I feel excited and comfortable to be sharing this knowledge with students.  I truly feel if the student is interested, and will complete the work, this class will make a huge difference in the life of the student!  It just may be a game changer!

Grades Offered

For the multi-day course, students will be required to purchase a workbook:  Wordly Wise 3000 Book K. The cover shows three children near a tree.  There is a kitty in the tree. .  These are available on Amazon new for $19.  I would not suggest buying a used one!  I did, and most of the workbook was already filled in by a child.
