                                                               ❗Calling all Preschool and ESL students❗

Welcome to my virtual kindergarten classroom! Here, students will learn essential skills to start kindergarten with a solid foundation in reading.

⭐ I am a veteran teacher with over ten years of experience teaching kindergarten, first grade, and reading intervention. Although I recently resigned as a public school teacher, I am excited to continue supporting students' success by preparing preschool students for kindergarten.

⭐My goal for my preschool students is to start kindergarten with a strong foundation in reading. To achieve this, we will focus on developing early literacy skills, including vocabulary, phonological awareness, reading comprehension, and print awareness.

⭐This is an ongoing, year-round class. Each day is independent of the other. You can withdraw and reenroll at any time. 

⭐The class is fast-paced, but all skills will be reinforced throughout the year. 

⭐Resources will be provided 24 hours before class. 

The skills we will focus on throughout the year include:

Language Arts πŸ” 
βœ…Letter Sound Relationship
