Class Experience

US Grade Kindergarten - 5
Beginner Level
In this class we will address different spelling patterns that are necessary for reading and writing proficiency as well as reading comprehension. We will address skills from to short to long vowels; how to drop e to add ing and more! Each session will start with a spelling pattern introduction and continue on to the teaching of explicit skills through games, and videos. Part three will be a story that will explicitly address the skill, and end with a follow up writing prompt to see if the learning is transferred from learning to being able to spell and write the new pattern!
