Portuguese Literacy: Learn to Read and Write is a dynamic and interactive course designed to help students develop essential reading and writing skills in Portuguese. The course will cover topics such as letter recognition, word formation, sentence construction, and basic grammar, all through fun and engaging activities. Each class will be structured with a balance of guided lessons and hands-on exercises, allowing students to practice what they've learned. I use a supportive and encouraging teaching style, incorporating games, visual aids, and group activities to make learning enjoyable and effective. Students will have plenty of opportunities to interact with me and ask questions, ensuring a personalized and engaging learning experience throughout the course. No prior knowledge of Portuguese is required—this course is designed for learners of all levels looking to develop reading and writing skills! The supportive, small-group setting allows for personalized attention and direct feedback, making it easy to follow along, ask questions, and progress at an individual pace. Whether learning for school, personal growth, or cultural connection, students will build confidence in reading and writing in a fun and encouraging environment. One of the unique aspects of Portuguese Literacy: Learn to Read and Write is its flexible structure—students can join at any time, even if the course is already in progress. Each lesson is self-contained, focusing on key literacy skills, phonics exercises, and sentence-building techniques that can be learned and applied independently. This ensures that students can participate without feeling left behind, with every session directly improving their reading comprehension and writing abilities. Below, you’ll find what students will learn in each class. By joining this dynamic course, students will recognize letters and sounds, form words, construct sentences, and develop essential literacy skills. Each lesson provides targeted practice, personalized feedback, and engaging activities to make reading and writing enjoyable. Ultimately, learners will gain the skills needed to read and express themselves clearly in Portuguese. Week of April 7: The Portuguese Alphabet: Recognizing letters and sounds.
