US Grade Kindergarten - 2
Beginner - Advanced Level
This class is an advanced class for kindergarteners ready and eager to start reading. It is an intermediate class for 1st graders needing some guided reading support. Finally, it is a beginning class for 2nd graders that are needing extra help with blending, phonics and learning how to read. This class is great for English Language Learners, Homeschoolers & those needing extra help with reading. Meet new friends while learning how to read. Then work at home on the week's word family with a provided list & suggested activities. What will be taught/topics covered? This is the second of two classes in the Take off with Reading series. This class will repeat every 32 weeks. The content doesn't build on each other, so feel free to join and leave the class whenever it best suits your learner. Each week learners will learn/practice: -saying the sounds of the short vowels and the sounds that will be included in the word family words of the week -blending nonsense words, and words from the word family of the week -phonemic segmentation fluency and spelling words from the word family of the week -rhyming, final sound fluency, or middle sound fluency How is my class structured? This class is structured for homeschool families that want some support teaching their child how to read. It would also be a great extra practice for those in public, private or charter schools that need extra help with, blending, reading and phonics. How will I teach/what's my teaching style? My teaching style is direct instruction. This means I will introduce the activity and model it before having the learners perform the activity on their own. How much will learners get to interact with me? The class is structured for active participation, games, call and response, and slideshow presentations.
Learning Goals
Students will be able to read short vowel word families with (a, e, i, o and u).When given a word with three sounds, students will be able to spell that word with support and prompting.
