Class Experience

US Grade 1 - 3
Is your child enjoying reading? This multi-day  class is  designed for students who have completed the skills in level 1-7. This class will  continue to spark the  joy of reading in each learner.  Lessons are  structured around activities  that will meet each child's  individual level.  My teaching style encourages confidence in readers through interactive fun games, short read alouds, poetry and creating written sentence puzzles.  Topics covered will include  "phonics  clues" and "special spellings"  that teach sounding out words with vowel teams, syllable types and heart words (sight words). I look forward to continuing with my learners and helping each one to continue to become a more fluent reader!

      I am most passionate about helping children build a strong phonics foundation. It is my joy to teach children how to read and to share my love of reading.
