Class Experience

US Grade Kindergarten - 2
In this class students will learn how to identify letters by the sounds that they make. They will then learn and practice blending sounds to form words and sentences. Each lesson will include practice identifying sounds, blending words, rhyming, new vocabulary, comprehension and writing. I will teach from slides and also use my hands and body movements to help with understanding, for example: counting sounds when sounding out words and demonstrating how to form our mouths to create the correct sounds. Slides will be interactive so students should have access to their writing tools via the Zoom annotation bar. Students will learn how to read in this class. Students can join at anytime and feel comfortable learning because lessons are repetitive and all information taught is revisited during each lesson. 

*no prior knowledge is necessary for students to learn and be successful in this class.

Week of September 2: identify and blend sounds: m, s, a, e, t, r, d, i, th, c, o, n, and f, with rhyming and word reading and sentence reading
Week of September 9: identify and blend with additional sounds: "u" and "l" with rhyming and word reading and story reading
Week of September 16: identify and blend with additional sounds: "w", "I", "g" and "sh", with rhyming, word reading and story reading
Week of September 23: identify and blend with additional sounds: "long a" and "h", with rhyming, word reading and story reading

* Each week will include additional sounds that will be used to practice consistent blending methods to read new words and sentences

* This schedule will repeat every 4 weeks at level one. Students may request to move forward and join a new level at anytime.

Learning Needs
This curriculum is designed to support learners with unique learning needs. It is taught with a direct instruction approach while implementing multisensory learning, which combines sight, hearing, touch, and movement.
Pre-Requisites
There are no prerequisites for this class.
Supply List
It will be very helpful if students are able to access their writing tools from the Zoom annotation bar. If this is not possible they should have a pencil, crayons and paper or a marker and whiteboard available to write with. It is a goal to have some time for writing after each reading lesson. On occasion, depending on the students in class and how much time they require to complete the lesson, we may not make it to the writing portion.
