Beginner Level
A sample session: 15 mins: Word Work. I use a variety of activities to strengthen student's phonemic awareness and sound-symbol decoding. Some of these activities include using digital letter tiles to build words and manipulate sounds, reading & writing new words, and sorting words based on spelling (For example, sorting a list of words with the different /oa/ spellings: "grown", "sew", "toe"...etc.) I will choose the activity that will best help the student to improve their ability to decode words. 15 mins: Guided Reading. At each session, your student will read a new decodable text with me, then take that text home to practice. This text will include sight words and specific sounds that your student is working on. Rereading the same text at home will help your child improve their fluency, automaticity, and gain confidence. Below are the target sounds we will learn each week during our "Guided Reading" portion of the class: Schedule: Week of Jan. 31: oa (Long o) Week of Feb. 7: ee/ (Long e) Week of Feb. 14: ee/ (Long e) Week of Feb. 21: ee/ (Long e) Week of Feb. 28: oa/ee Review Week of Mar. 6: /ay/ (Long a) Week of Mar. 13: /ay/ (Long a) Week of Mar. 20: /ay/ Long a) Week of Mar. 27: /i_e/ (Long i) Week of Apr. 3: NO CLASS (Spring Break) Week of Apr. 10: Vowel + e Week of Apr. 17: /er/ Week of Apr. 24: /ow/ Week of May 1: /oo/ Week of May 8: /oo/ Week of May 13: Last Class: ALL REVIEW

I left the classroom to have my baby, and I've been teaching and tutoring online for 18 months now. I am certified in the Reading Simplified method of reading instruction, and specialize in Reading Tutoring here on Outschool. I'm passionate about integrating movement and dance into academic curriculum and helping kids have fun while learning. See you in the classroom!
