Class Experience

US Grade 3 - 6
This is not a live class. This means that you will receive a video recording of the lesson. I will teach the rule, and then have children spell words. They will be asked to pause the recording, spell the word, unpause it, and then check to see if it is spelled correctly.


Homework:
A set of 10 spelling words will be assigned each week.
The homework will need to be printed. It will not be turned in, but it is helpful if it is completed.

Class Activities:
During the class, students will interact with words through:
-Reading exercises
-Creating sentences
-Making videos
-Going on word hunts
The extra activities can be turned in and it is highly suggested that they do. Once those extra activities are turned in, I will comment on them within 24 hours.

Assessments:
At the end of the week, students will have a short quiz on the spelling rule (conducted via Kahoot)


Duration:
This class should take about five weeks to complete.

Learning Goals

Children will learn about suffixes, vowel teams, and ways to make long vowels.

Hi, I'm Rachel Capes! 🌟

I have an Early Childhood Degree and a Master's in Literacy. I spent 12 amazing years teaching 4th and 5th graders, and Kindergarten SPED in public schools. I even got to be a math and literacy coach!

Now, I homeschool my four wonderful kids. One is gifted, two are right where they should be, and one has a learning disability. This time at home has given me a deeper understanding of all learning styles.

I believe learning should be hands-on and fun! Kids should be excited about math and reading.

In math, we use manipulatives, drawing, and algorithms to make learning engaging. When we meet more than once, kids get to share how they solved problems and explain their thinking.

In reading, we dive into books, discuss vocabulary, explore literary elements, analyze characters and plots, and make predictions. Everyone gets to share their thoughts and opinions while respecting others'.

I love to read, be outdoors with my kids, and this year we're learning to garden together. 🌱

I also teach World History and Geography at an accredited homeschool group.

Let's make learning an adventure! 🎉📚✨
