Each class will be introducing a new spelling rule concept. C/K/CK Rule: This is often a confusing rule for students but through the Orton-Gillingham approach, it is made fun and kinaesthetic. Buzz off Miss Pill: doubling final consonants in certain words that end in z, f, s, l. Drop the E Rule: this rule is one of the most common errors students make. For example: excite+ing= exciting (the E is dropped) BUT excite+ment= excitement (the E is NOT dropped). Why is that? 1•1•1 Doubling Rule: another common spelling error: For example: fret+ing= fretting BUT fret+ful= fretful So why is it that the T was doubled in fretting but not fretful? Well, there's a rule for that; and that's what they'll learn! Plural: Add s to most words and es to words that end in Z, X, S, CH, SH Silent E Rule: all about long and short vowels Change Y to I: this rule is a tricky one for most students. We will learn a way to remember this common spelling rule. Soft C & G: C and G have two sounds each: soft and hard Week 1: Silent E Rule/Plural Week 2: Buzz of Miss Pill/Soft c/g Week 3: Drop E Rule/C/K/CK Rule Week 4: 1•1•1 Doubling Rule/Change Y to I *PARENTS PLEASE READ THE FOLLOWING PRIOR TO REGISTRATION* Please note that I am NOT always able to check messages from parents during class time. I will do my best to get back to parents as soon as I'm able to. However, I normally teach 6-7 classes per day and my schedule does not permit me to always be available to check the messages. Your understanding is greatly appreciated. :) REFUNDS All my classes operate under the 'LIMITED' refund policy. Learners can withdraw with a refund up to ONE WEEK before class starts, or within 24 hours of purchase. Refunds are NOT given for withdraws outside this window. No shows and/or missed classes (intentionally or not), are NOT entitled to a refund. A recording of the class will be posted in the classroom after the session is completed for your reference. LATE STUDENTS If your child joins a class late, please advise I will do my best to bring the late student up to speed. However, I will not re-teach missed portions of the class. Students will have access to the class recording to view the missed portion of the class. CLASSROOM EXPECTATIONS Prior to the class commencing, I will announce my class expectations which include: ~ no using the chat box for student to student messages ~ the chat box is meant for students whose audio is not working ~ the chat box is meant for private messages to me if student wishes not to share with the class ~ absolutely NO drawing and writing on the screen I am teaching on (the student will be reminded of this and after the 2nd offence, they will be asked to leave the class) unless I invite them to answer a question and/or highlight a keyword ~ any disrespectful behaviour will result in the student being asked to leave the class There is NO DISCOUNT issued for siblings and/or the registration of multiple classes.
