Class Experience

In this ongoing class the student will receive first grade readiness instruction. The student will learn and have extensive practice with phonemic awareness, phonics, spelling, high frequency words, writing, and handwriting through a research-based curriculum.

We will review letter and sound identification, master grade-level appropriate rules for long and short vowels, and learn and practice proper formation of letters. The learner will obtain mastery of Dolch's and Fry's grade-level appropriate high frequency words (aka "heart words" based on the Science of Reading).

Each week's lessons will contain the following elements:
- Phonemic Awareness
-Review of previous and current week's instruction
-Introduction and/or reinforcement of current phonics skill (through music, movement, sound mapping, decoding, and encoding)
-Introduction and/or reinforcement of current high frequency word (through sound mapping and multisensory applications)
-Handwriting instruction & practice

The student's prior knowledge and mastery of letter names and sounds will provide an appropriate foundation, or "prior knowledge", to help with success in this class.

Learning Goals

The learner will master the Reading/Language Arts skills needed in order to obtain first grade readiness.
