Beginner Level
Students will learn that in the beginning /kn/ digraph the /k/ is always silent. This occurs in words like "knight" and "knob". All resources and activities are online, so students can clearly see the text and visuals. I adapt my teaching to meet the need of my learners, so each session is unique to that group. In this class students will… • Sing a warm-up song to introduce the topic and vocabulary. • Play a word-reading game with fun visuals and sound effects • Read a short story focusing on the target phonics skill. Use the whiteboard to write words with the target sound If your child has a small whiteboard, please have it ready (with a marker and eraser) for a spelling game. If you do not have a whiteboard, don't worry. We can play the game another way. This lesson aligns with the 2nd grade Common Core standards: Silent letter digraphs CCSS.ELA-Literacy.RF.2.3.e Sight words CCSS.ELA-Literacy.RF.2.3.f Fluency CCSS.ELA-Literacy.RF.2.4
