US Grade Pre-Kindergarten - Kindergarten
🎉 NEWLY ADDED MATERIAL FOR THE SCHOOL YEAR! ✅ WELCOME! ***Please check the dates this class is offered as some courses are once per week up to 5 times per week. 📚 Are you looking for a great way to get your pre-k child reading in time for Kindergarten, or want your older child to review letters/get on a higher reading level (This class is great for pre-k through 2nd grade)? Look no further. This class offers tools your child will need to be a successful and confident reader. Every day, learners will have the opportunity to engage with one another, learn new letters in a specific order that they can eventually blend with, and stay engaged throughout class using a variety of strategies to maintain knowledge retention. This course can be used as a main preschool/kinder or supplemental. *New this year with more classes and material!* 📝 Class structure: •Welcome song •Alphabet song (different from the one you and I may know) •Introduction to letter or blend through visual, song, story, and repetition •Reinforcement of letter or blend through worksheets or books •Activity or craft that may be finished at home •Show and tell ✏️ Each class we will learn a new letter or blend, a song to go along with that letter, an activity or craft to go along with the lesson, and the learner may bring a show and tell item beginning with that letter to share. After lesson 9, we will start adding a book every few classes that follow along with the lessons. Your child will eventually be able to read these books at home and pass them off with you. 📆 Schedule (with newly added material): Lesson 1: Mm Lesson 2: Aa Lesson 3: Pp Lesson 4: Ss Lesson 5: Tt Lesson 6: Review Lesson 7: Bb Lesson 8: Hh Lesson 9: Gg +Book 1 Lesson 10: Dd Lesson 11: Nn Lesson 12: Review Lesson 13: Rr Lesson 14: Ll Lesson 15: Cc Lesson 16: Jj Lesson 17: Ff Lesson 18: Review Lesson 19: Oo Lesson 20: Xx Lesson 21: Ii Lesson 22: Zz Lesson 23: Ww Lesson 24: Review Lesson 25: Kk Lesson 26: Vv Lesson 27: Uu Lesson 28: Ee Lesson 29: Qq Lesson 31: Yy (Note: we will skip lesson 30 and move into the letter y to end the course) 2️⃣ this class can be taken independently or in the 2-part series. The second part of this class will start a few weeks after Part 1 is ended, either in January, April/May, or Aug/Sept. Here is the link to the second class: https://outschool.com/classes/pre-k-kindergarten-reading-camp-with-full-english-curriculum-W2Dl8Gyu?usid=o6NyIc3q&signup=true&utm_campaign=share_activity_link 💻 (Note: If you are interested in this class and it is sold out, it is also offered as a FLEXIBLE schedule- Same class structure, same classmates, just pre-recorded- here is the link) https://outschool.com/classes/preschool-and-kindergarten-reading-fun-learning-dynamics-part-1-flex-GMy4y2Yt?usid=o6NyIc3q&signup=true&utm_campaign=share_activity_link 🥅 Goals: The class is designed to hold your child's interest while giving them a new concept right when they need it. They will be challenged with a new concept each lesson, then they will have the help to succeed in understanding it. When they do, they can obtain a reward with the included prizes directly linked the concept they have just learned. The students will learn through sight, song, repetition, and building upon previously learned concepts. They will also be able to show off their creative side by bringing something to share with others that begins with the letter we will be reviewing. 📖 This class helps children develop language and comprehension skills through activities that teach sequencing, rhyming, classification, same/different, and opposites. 🎵 They learn letters and sounds through music and fun object lessons. As the children begin learning the letters and sounds, I teach the blending concept and they begin reading words and books within the first few weeks of beginning the program. Then we broaden the reading experience to solidify skills and build self-confidence. 🥳 Just for fun: We will celebrate themed days and dress up days. We will also celebrate when our classmates have a birthday. 🍁 Fall schedule: We will take a few class breaks for Fall Break, Thanksgiving Break, and Winter Break. Part 2 will start up in January and end in May, which will complete the entire Preschool reading curriculum. 🌸 Spring Schedule: We will take a few class breaks for Martin Luther King day, President’s day, and Spring break. Part 2 will start up in April/May, which will complete the entire Preschool reading curriculum. ☀️ Summer Schedule: We will take breaks for Independence Day, as well as any other holidays. This schedule will start the last week of April, May, or June. 📖Using the 4 weeks to read program: Learning Dynamics Reading System has been used and fine-tuned in preschool through second-grade classrooms for 20 years.

Parental Guidance
Parents may need to help their child with sounding out words, or reviewing the letters. Occasionally we will do activities in class that may require some cutting or gluing.
I am available for office hours for extra help if and when needed (meaning you can schedule a live meeting with me- think of it as a parent-teacher-student conference)!
Supply List
I am able to scan and send most of the material needed during class. For optimal results in and out of the classroom please make sure you can print the work pages weekly. You are also welcome to purchase a hard copy of the reading program. Please reach out if you’d like to order that to use at home.
