This class focuses on L consonant blends (cl, pl, gl, fl, bl, sl). Instruction will focus on one blend per class. Learners will learn the sound first and then practice reading words using the sound. Learners will practice reading, writing, and spelling each word as they create an interactive notebook page. Learners will learn 8-10 words per week. How does this self-placed class this work?
