Other Details

Parental Guidance
To give students additional practice with the content learned in the lesson, there will be links to 3rd party websites, which I will list below: 🛜 gamestolearnenglish.com (the activity is created by me and not the website, so you will need to use the link I share. You only need to put in a first name {ex: Katie} into the box to play the game, which allows me to monitor how my students are doing with the content. ) You do not need to sign up for an account.
Pre-Requisites
Students should come into this class having a basic understanding of the alphabet. They should understand that all of the letters make a sound. If they don’t know all of the sounds, that is okay, they just need a basic understanding.
