Class Experience

Beginner Level
❤️ Level 2 "Montessori Phonics Fun for Beginning Readers 1:1 Tutorial" is designed for young learners who already know one sound for each letter and need guidance as they practice 1-word phonetic reading with short vowel sounds and blends.

❤️ CLASS CONTENT: Each 30-minute session includes:
Via screen-sharing: 
😊 I introduce eight colorful photos, focusing on names and descriptions.
🖼️ I engage the learner while demonstrating the Montessori color-coded alphabet with phonetic letter sounds and photos. We sound out and discuss phonetic words such as "mix," "frogs" and "sunset." 
📖 The learner reads a label; I match each label with a picture, and we discuss and describe the picture together. 
🎉 We play a fun cooperative BINGO game, emphasizing picture description, conversation and letter sounds.
 
🥰 My teaching style is warm, attentive and patient. This tutorial class is similar to a Montessori classroom experience; a 1:1 lesson with shared enthusiasm for vocabulary, letter sounds, conversation, and learning to read! 
We'll end each meeting with a brief goodbye song with live autoharp accompaniment.

Supply List
❤️ OPTIONAL PRINTABLES: For each session, the learner receives: 
🥇 PDFs of dotted-font handwriting lists in extra-large and medium font
🥈 A colorful BINGO game with photos that match the word lists, plus 8 additional photos 
🥉 A video of an original slideshow with a lively letter-sound song for the entire alphabet! 
🔡 If you would like to have a movable alphabet of your own, I recommend going to alisonsmontessori.com and purchasing "small movable alphabet with box, red and blue" item number L07
Recommended: 
🖨️ a color printer, thick paper (card stock or cover stock), and a small paper cutter. These supplies are especially important for creating your own sets of Montessori-inspired 3-part cards. Upon request, I will send printable PDFs after each session. You can also print your own handwriting word lists. These are posted before class, along with the BINGO game.
