Beginner Level

In this 8 week course, students will learn basic reading skills. This class is for those who are just beginning to read or are currently taking my beginner reading class and need more practice. This class will focus on one phonic sound a week and specific words for the week. We will work on blending simple cvc words.  This is a beginner reading class. Your child should be able to identify 42/52 letters, know at least 20/26 sounds and know how to write their letters. My class is very routine! We begin by going over the sound, reading/blending words with that sound, writing words, reading them in a sentence, and reading a leveled reader. We will learn basic sight words (the, is, am, a, on, in, at, like, I, can). This class can be taken at the same time as my beginner reading class (will offer more practice) or on its own. I have a break down of each vowel sound for each week below. I do not teach specific word families. I work more on blending techniques to figure out the word. 
Week 1: Short vowel A
week 2: Short vowel E
Week 3: Short vowel I
Week 4: Short vowel O
Week 5: Short vowel U
Week 6: Magic E and long vowels A and E
Week 7: Magic E and long vowels I and O
Week 8: Magic E and short vowel U and review

Learning Goals

Profile

Teacher expertise and credentials

New York Teaching Certificate in English/Language Arts

I teach a variety of different classes geared toward elementary students ages 3 and up. My classes include ELA, Math, Writing, Phonics, Stories, teaching beginner, intermediate and advanced readers, simple to complex sentences, and much more. I love student participation and encourage it in all my class. 
I have 16 years of teaching experience.  I teach 4th grade ELA in a public school in NYS and have been teaching for 4 years on Outschool. I have a Masters in Elementary Education, Bachelors in History, Associates in Business. I have taught Pre-k, K, and ESL online. I have taught all subjects. Over my 16 years of teaching, I have gone to many different trainings in ELA, math, behavioral and I am trained in Logics by Ortan Gillingham and currently training and using restorative practices. 
I believe every child can learn but not all through the same method. Learning needs to be fun and engaging and needs to be a memorable experience for students to truly understand it. 
I am a mom to five wonderful kids ages 6-12. They keep me busy and I love being their number one teacher! 

Class Expectations 
1. Be on time and be prepared. Please read class material section for proper materials.
2. Class will go the full length of the time unless their is a small number of students, then it may be a little shorter (usually only five minutes) 
3. I like to engage my students through different activities and discussion, if a student doesn't want to participate that is fine, but I will encourage it. 
4. You must turn your camera on at the beginning of class.
