In this class, students will learn to read with phonics skills and write words using contractions (can not equals can't). Reading Contractions With Mrs. Rose (Level 9): In this class, students will learn to read and write words using contractions. Using letter symbol cues and pictures, students will practice the sounds, how to blend, and read words using contractions. A worksheet is provided for the student to support the activity in class, for word and writing practice. Students will be exposed to oral language practice for phonemic awareness (recognition and play with sounds), and phonics skills to read words. Powerpoints are used as the main presentation. Digital reading books will be used as needed, to supplement the practice of reading words in text. As I adjust to meeting the needs of the learners virtually, I may make modifications as to how I present a concept. ***Students must know all letters, sounds, and decoding short (cvc) AND long vowel words (cvce) to be successful in this class. Students may join any week, the way the curriculum is structured, it does not build on previous weeks.*** ***In order for me to assist your child while reading, I do require cameras to be turned on during class.

Welcome! I am a Florida Certified Educator. I have been a primary teacher for 20 years. I taught PreK, Kindergarten, and First Grade.

I love all aspects of teaching reading and helping students fall in love with and learn to read. I truly believe in hands-on learning, using a variety of teaching styles to meet all students where they are. What works for one student, may not work for another. I am always ready to make changes to to help each and every student learn. I am married with an inquisitive 9 year old daughter. She truly keeps me on my toes as I watch her grow and learn.
