Class Experience

In this four-week class, students will learn about twelve letters in the alphabet and their corresponding sounds. 

I believe students work best when they can follow a predictable routine. Each day students will follow the same four steps. 

Step 1: Watch a short teaching video 
Step 2: Read any book with an adult and find the letter that was taught in that book.
Step 3: Print out and complete a learning activity 
Step 4 (Optional) Take a picture of their work and post it in the classroom. 

My teaching style is organized yet fun and relaxed. I wanted this class to be a good fit for students of all ages working on their letters and sounds. 

Each student is encouraged to take a picture or video of their work and post it onto the classroom. They are welcome to ask questions as well. All of the work can be completed at their own pace.

Learning Goals

Students will learn the letter names and sounds of twelve letters in the alphabet.

Students can locate letters that they learn in a picture book.
