Each week, parents/caregivers will be sent a Lesson plan, a little book to print, and a spelling word list.  Students will be given a spelling test on Fridays.  Parents may choose to grade the test or take a photo and sent it to the teacher through the Outschool platform for grading. 

If you haven't completed my Come and Meet the Vowel People Class, that one might be a great place to start.  The vowels are of upmost importance for beginning to read!  If you're child already knows the consonant and vowel sounds well, then this is the place to start!
