Beginner Level
Beginner Level | This class is ran each month. Students may join or leave class at anytime during the month. Each class with focus on new word families, reviewing prior word families, and ensuring students understand the basic concepts of reading. "Phonemic Awareness refers to the ability to understand that words are made up of sounds. More specifically, phonemic awareness includes identifying and manipulating sounds in words." "Phonics concerns the relationship between the sounds and written letters in a word." In this class, your child will practice both phonemic awareness and phonics so that they may work towards become fluent readers. Each class will present students with a word family. For example words ending in -at. Students will practice letter sounds of 'a' and 't', work on pronouncing 'at', and move through other (rhyming) words that have the same ending including: mat, cat, fat, bat, sat. This method allows students to decode and segment words while also working to: 1. Notice patterns 2. Practice rhyming 3. Build vocabulary 4. Begin spelling *******Learners who enroll in this class should be comfortable recognizing letters and producing the correct letters sounds for each letter of the alphabet.************ Learners should have access to alphabet letters.
