Class Experience

US Grade Pre-Kindergarten - 1
Beginner Level
Hi friends!  Would you like to learn about letters and sounds while diving into the deep blue ocean and meeting many animal friends along the way? Well, jump in, and let's go!  We will begin our class with a brief circle time to sing and share something with the class.  Then, we will move on to learning letters and sounds.  Each week we will focus on 2-3 letters and their sounds.  We will meet all kinds of sea animals throughout our class who will guide us to learn letters and sounds and blend them into words.  After learning and practicing together, we will play a game where each student will practice making simple words. I follow the teaching process "I do, we do, you do" by teaching the target letter and sound, practicing with the learner, and then giving the learner a chance to show off what they have learned. In the end, we will read a story together and identify the sounds and words we have learned in class.  I will provide fun activities to print for your child to cut out and color; however, this is not required.  Below is a description of class each week:

Learning Goals

Students will identify and produce individual sounds. This is very beneficial to early reading skills. We will gradually add sounds together to blend and learn how words are made. Lastly, we will blend 2-3 sounds together to form real words and practice reading them at the end of each lesson in a story. Our ultimate goal by the end of the five weeks, is to be able to blend sounds into words with minimal assistance.
