Class Experience

US Grade Pre-Kindergarten - 2
Learners will actively engage with me throughout each class through interactive lessons that include direct instruction, guided practice, and hands-on activities. I will use slides to introduce phonics concepts, and students will participate in games like "Phonics Bingo" and "Word Builder" to reinforce their learning. We will practice blending and segmenting words together, engage in group discussions about sounds and spelling patterns, and read decodable texts as a class. Short video clips and songs will be incorporated to make learning multisensory and engaging. Students will have plenty of opportunities to respond, ask questions, and interact with both me and their classmates in a supportive and encouraging environment.

Learning Goals

Recognize Letter-Sound Correspondence – Identify and produce the sounds associated with individual letters and letter combinations (e.g., digraphs, blends).
Blend and Segment Sounds – Blend sounds together to form words and segment words into individual sounds to build phonemic awareness.

Profile
Teacher expertise and credentials
Georgia Teaching Certificate
I am a certified early childhood educator with experience teaching phonics and literacy skills to young learners in both classroom and online settings. I currently work in the Head Start program at Union County Elementary School in Georgia, where I support early literacy development through phonemic awareness, letter recognition, and emergent reading activities. Previously, I have taught phonics using structured programs like Reading Horizons and i-Ready, helping students build foundational reading skills through engaging, research-based methods. With several years of experience working with children ages 4–7, I have developed strategies to make phonics instruction fun, interactive, and tailored to different learning styles. My passion for early literacy drives me to create an engaging and supportive environment where young learners gain confidence in reading.
