GUIDED PRACTICE: Hands-on or paper/pencil practice. WRAP-UP: Review and sharing. Class size is limited to 6 students to allow for more interaction among the learners and the teacher and to allow more help when needed. Preschool experience is not required, and learners of all levels and experience are welcome. Students should be able to hold a pencil correctly. This class is suitable for English Language Learners, too.
